Los Angeles, I managed to still produce a comedy horror film for Disney and 20th Digital, sponsored by M&M\u2019s as part of Hulu\u2019s \u201cBite Size Horror\u201d series.\u00a0Every precaution was taken to ensure a safe shoot \u2013 testing, temperature checks, masks, social distancing, designated work zones, air filters, fans, additional holding rooms, etc. It was made with a lot of care, and a lot of love, and I\u2019m very proud of it and the amazing team that made it happen! In addition to Hulu, the film also aired on FXX and Freeform throughout the month of October.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Los Angeles Times wrote up a beautiful article<\/a>\u00a0about the \u201cBite Size Horror\u201d series \u2013 and specifically Michelle Steffes, the writer\/director of \u201cSummoned\u201d. The film is at the Vimeo link below, but also the LA Times article itself embeds the full film. Click thumbnail below to read and watch!<\/p>\n
