Alana de Freitas - Filmmaker

Hi,

I wrote and produced my first feature screenplay, 'Before the Dawn'. We are now starting to put together all our deliverables and marketing pieces for distribution

I wrote and directed an LGBTQ short film, 'Nancy', which is now in post production.

I am almost halfway through writing a screenplay for a horror feature.

I have a documentary in development on a facet of the #MeToo movement. I have been surveying hundreds of people for the past 6 months and am now about to begin pre-interviews for potential candidates to determine who will participate in the doc.

Juggling a lot of balls, but enjoying it!

Congrats on controlling your own content, Alana. Very inspiring and, I'm sure, extremely rewarding as well!

Hi Alana. Very grateful for your post. Sometimes, these articles are little more than 'follow your dreams/be true to yourself' pieces but yours was genuinely practical and helpful. I'm a British actor/writer hoping to come and work in LA soon, so your story is an inspiring one. Thank you!

Thom Reese

That's fantastic, Alana. Congrats!
