Bio

Hi all,

I’ve been working as a PA and talent wrangler for two years now, and I am looking for more experience to help me carve out my path to becoming a television producer/writer. At this point I’ve worked on a lot of reality shows: Big Brother Canada, Master Chef Canada, The Great Canadian Baking Show, Where to I Do, Wall of Chef, Top Chef. I have yet to break into the scripted world, but I am eagerly looking for opportunities. I love the energy of being on set, am very observant and have been told I make a great addition to any set. Im looking to move on from production assisting to a casting or story position, so I would be so excited to work work with anyone willing to give me a shot!

 

Looking forward to working with you all!

Victoria

Intro

I’m excited to be joining Film in Colour because in my two years in the industry I have met a handful of POC working on set, and even less in high-level roles. The sets I have been on with a heavy POC presence have a unique energy and are truly inspiring to be a part of. Being able to see myself represented in media really makes me excited to be a part of it.

I am looking to break into scripted content in any way shape or form. I love a good story and depictions of the human experience, so working on a set with that in mind would be interesting to observe.
