Sound It Out: The Untitled LGBTQIA Music Documentary
Self
An edgy and unapologetic look at the growing impact that open LGBTQ music artists, and their straight allies, are having on the portrayal of sexuality and gender politics in music, and its affect on the normalizing of gay culture. Using artists personal experiences as a lens, we'll look at sexuality's influence on music and the role of social media in helping artists complicate mainstream expectations of identity. How far are artists willing to push their music, messages and imagery to challenge the way pop culture defines notions of sexuality, masculinity, femininity, gender and what it means to be queer?

Executive Producer
Aa World War II themed Christmas musical filmed in just four days with 32 child actors. Haley used her directorial debut to create “the most concentrated dosage of Christmas feeling, dreamy, full of wonder." While the visual aspect creates a stream of vivid holiday cheer set post-World War II, the audio was created to be nostalgic for the sound that came out of that generation.

Lennon or McCartney

550 artists were interviewed over ten years. At some point during those interviews, they were asked a question and told to answer with one word only. Some stuck to one, some said more, some answered quickly, some thought it through, and some didn't answer at all. That question… Lennon or McCartney?
