WHO WE ARE
Matt Hanisch – Writer/Director/Editor
Born and raised in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Matt Hanisch has been making films since he could hold a camera. Now an award-winning writer, director, and editor studying Film and TV Production at the University of Southern California's School of Cinematic Arts, Matt has not forgotten his roots or the importance of family. Whether he’s at an internship, on set, or in the labs, Matt brings a calm, level-headed presence to every project he works on.

Best known for his work on “Memio” (2019), “Lights” (2018), “Noah in Training” (2017), and “And Let It Begin with Me” (2018), Matt’s films have screened at a variety of film festivals, earning him several awards. His work has been featured on EWTN, "Now This," and the St. Jude Children's Hospital official Facebook page.
Angelina Feronti – Producer/Sound Designer
Born and raised in Oklahoma as a Korean-Italian, Angelina turned to film as a way to explore unorthodox voices and stories in a visual medium that can reach wide audiences. She now attends USC as a double-major in Film & TV Production and Cinema & Media Studies. Deepening her interest in independent film, she interned for Oklahoma’s largest film festival, deadCenter. Since moving to LA, she has interned for Electric City Entertainment and Sony Pictures Television Networks. She most recently spent her summer interning for TriStar Pictures, assisting executives in developing voice-driven commercial film. Currently she is working on an animation project as well as producing two short films.
Ashley Ågren – Cinematographer
Born in Sweden and raised in the suburbs of Santa Clarita, California, Ashley Ågren fell in love with filmmaking at the age of 13. Since then she has developed her skills as a headshot photographer and wedding videographer and enrolled at USC's School of Cinematic Arts. She worked at FPC under Beau Flynn and Wendy Jacobson, and has helped out on projects like "My Dead Ex" and "It's Guys Night" (2015) in all forms of pre-production. Ashley made her writing, directing, and acting debut in her short film "Magnetic Attraction" (2014) about a world where people who are literally magnetically attracted to one another must face the fact that they can no longer hide their feelings.

Ashley almost always carries her camera with her. Her main focus is capturing the beauty in the world, which she believes you can find anywhere, even if you have to skew your viewpoint to see it. She lives in the moment and loves using her camera to capture what she sees so she can remember those moments and share her perspective with others.
Noël Dombroski – Production Designer
Noël Dombroski has been making films since she was 8 years old and is currently pursuing a BA in Film and Television Production at USC School of Cinematic Arts. Originally from Massachusetts, she spent a year at Columbia College in Chicago before transferring to USC.

First and foremost, Noël is a filmmaker. She loves music videos and experimental works, but comedy is definitely her home. She loves the craftsmanship that comes with visual storytelling. She has several years of experience working as a Production Designer and Art Director, where she’s learned and refined skills such as set design/construction, prop building, scenic painting, and more. Noël looks forward to graduating USC School of Cinematic Arts in May of 2019. She has also worked on several period pieces, learning more each time about how to gather research effectively and integrate it into design.
Aodhan Ozawa Burns - Editor
Aodhan Ozawa Burns is a Japanese-Irish American writer and filmmaker who has a deep admiration for comedies and true crime stories. His affinity for storytelling began at Ruth Asawa School of the Arts in San Francisco, CA. Now, he attends USC’s School of Cinematic Arts in Los Angeles where he’s pursuing a Bachelor’s of Fine Arts degree in Film and TV Production.
Emily Hadley – 1st Assistant Director
Born in China, Emily Hadley was adopted at a young age and spent her early childhood in Arizona, then later moved to Washington state. Majoring in Film & TV Production at USC gave her opportunities to explore the various parts of her life that didn’t align with the usual narrative that comes with being Asian. This is also what drew her to editing - the ability to take pieces that might not seem to fit, then turning them into something thought provoking and beautiful. She edited the USC junior thesis film Fish Tank as well as the senior thesis film, Party of Two. Since graduating in December 2018, Emily works as an assistant editor for E! News at NBCUniversal.
Kate McIntyre - Lead Actress
Kate McIntyre is a versatile character actor. She started in community theatre, where she performed on stage, directed, produced, stage managed, and built sets. Her obsession with theatre lasted for around 20 years, and she was part of more than 250 plays and musicals in theatres in Ventura and Los Angeles counties.

Kate received many suggestions from her audiences that she try acting for film and television, so she decided to give it a try. She took an on-camera commercial class, as, at the time, she had no idea how things worked on a film set. From there, she pursued her career - headshots, an agent, and some small successes in the form of some commercials and several co-star roles on network TV.

Kate loves acting almost more than anything else, and for her, it's all about the work. She relishes quirky roles and has had a great time with the roles she's been cast in in the projects she has done in the last few years. Keep your eyes out for her; you’ll see her in big places soon!
