- In order to make this film, we need $6,500. I know that sounds like a lot! Funds go toward: transportation, food, housing, and props (i.e.: a car, costume, set staging, and equipment rentals).
- There are drastically too few female directors in the industry. If you donate to this film, you not only help a women graduate with a film degree, you can also receive a custom one-of-a-kind t-shirt; sticker set; and even credit in the film itself!

- "Greener Pastures" is about grief and the complicated dynamics that come with family loss. I came up with this concept when my mother got Covid and almost died.
- I have produced many films while at SCAD, including another senior thesis, "Severance" as well as many other productions such as "First Date", "Behind The Scenes", "Puppet Master." and many more.
- "Greener Pastures" is based on an event that almost happened to me but is highly relatable because family is universally complicated.

- Filmmaking is, as we say in the industry, "a crapshoot" but that's what makes filmmaking so exciting. The challenges push creativity and problem-solving.
- I plan to overcome the challenges that will arise by using everything that I've learned over my years at SCAD.
