Meet Kat
As a filmmaker, writer, and mother, I’m passionate about creating spaces for people to experiment in their work. I came up making theater in empty studios, shooting renegade films, and doing performance art on the streets of New York City. Whether in a 1:1 session, writing class, workshop, or retreat, my intention is to create small, sacred coves where we can f*ck around and find out what matters to us.
1:1 SCRIPT SESSION
These sessions are for:
— Beginner writers seeking a nurturing mentor for their first screenplay
— Experienced writers who want exploratory feedback and in-depth support on a screenplay at any stage
— Idea generation including brainstorming scene ideas, loglines, titles, and more
— Creatives who have great ideas but difficulty developing or finishing a screenplay
— Writers who want to learn screenplay structure and/or how to break the rules
For features, there is an additional cost of $1/page. All sessions are 60 minutes. Once purchased, we will contact you to schedule your session. All sessions are non-refundable and must be booked within a month of purchase.
1:1 CREATIVE CONSULTATION
These sessions are for:
— Writers who feel blocked or stuck in their process
— Filmmakers who want to chat about project development, festival/distribution strategy, or career visioning
— Artists seeking a daily creative and spiritual practice to help build their craft
— Filmmakers who are technically proficient, but need help connecting to the why behind their work and bringing depth to their storytelling
— Dormant artists looking to shift into (or back to) a creative career
