Ooo what you said!
Notes from pros who have worked with Colleen

"I thoroughly enjoyed working with Colleen on MORTAL WOUND and I am truly glad to have met her.

I found her to have a very detailed, focused and consistent vision for her film from pre-production through post-production.

Colleen's enthusiasm is extremely infectious - she truly loves what she does and I found myself driven further by her vibe.

I also found her to be an excellent communicator, mixing solid direction and constructive feedback with humor and fun.

I sincerely enjoyed working with Colleen and hope I get many more chances to do so in the future. It was a pleasure."

-Dave Chick, Composer, Hatched Productions
