So yeah, Elena has been part of a professional experience that not many of us could claim to fully comprehend.

Reasons to Listen:
In this fascinating conversation we dive into the weeds of filmmaking starting with an in depth look at the role of a DA or director’s assistant in the world of film.

The conversation also meanders into topics on finding inspiration within filmmaking as well as that of advice to those looking for ways to build out an idea or concept into a filmmaking project.

The talk will truly be of interest to anyone with even a casual interest in the filmmaking scene and even more valuable to those who may have their own writing or directing aspirations but are just starting out.
