The Fascinating Journey of Director Jeannette Godoy.
from Respect The Process
How the multi-talented Jeannette Godoy came to spot directing is quite a fascinating tale. She's worked on set as a choreographer, a wardrobe stylist, a production designer and even a dialect coach. Then she turned her talents to directing, and was shortlisted at Cannes as "Best New Director" and plucked for Shoot's New Director Showcase for her very first spot. Jeannette brings a warmth and humanity to her work that takes even seasoned directors years to convey. Enjoy my chat with this director on the rise. We talk about how to break into the business, as well as the challenges of being a female in a male-dominated field. And of course we discuss her award-winning documentary, "Free 2 Be Me", a 30 minute film about young dancers with Down Syndrome. Please share the film, you can download for free at free2bememovie.com.
