Hello, Stage 32 Members!

Richard probably doesn't remember this, but I was one of the first strong supporters of Stage 32 way back in the day when it first began. I contributed a lot of "how-to" articles regarding "How to Make A Movie on A Dime". Since then, I have turned the into an information into a you tube show. It offers some great tips I learned by making my low budget indie films. Both of which, have been very successful.

My first film was a short, "Someone to Love". I wrote, produced, directed and star. It was accepted at Cannes and won eleven Laurels in additional festivals.

My romcom "1 Nighter" won 12 Laurels on the festival circuit. Among them, The Golden Leopard award for Best Lead Actress in the CIFT Festival. I'm thrilled they didn't call it The Golden Cougar award. Also, Best Romantic Comedy in the IFQ film festival. Golden Globe nominee, Timothy Bottoms, won Best Supporting Actor. etc. It's available on AmazonPrime. Please check it out. FX Feeney reviewed:
"It's uniquely funny, sweet and inspiring." It's also available on your phone. If you like it, give me some stars. If you don't like it - don't tell anyone.

Acting is my first love and I'm always looking for more. I'm a terrific comedienne and character actor.. As well as a damd good dramatic
actor. Please go to my website to see my acting demo, award speeches and the trailers of my films. My acting resume is long and substantial. I talked my way into William Morris when I was 19 and my first job was starring in a prime-time series on ABC, followed by several series' regular roles, and many guest-starring and supporting feature roles. I've been hired to play just about every character a woman can play, both comedic and dramatic, except a Nun. No one ever believed my Nun.:)

I can be always be reached through my website . and at JillJaress@

Thank you for welcoming me back into Stage 32
