My name is Danielle Erwin, the Owner of 7th Seed Productions, an
independent film company based out of Philadelphia, PA. Since 2011 I have
directed, written, and produced four short films with the help of my co
director and co writer Sean Chin.
Honor And Pride-A film on bullying in the LGBTQ community, was
aired on the School District of Philadelphia aired Honor And Pride on it’s
Comcast channel from October through November 2011, as part of their support to
bringing awareness on bullying within the LGBT community. PhillyCam a prominent
community access channel also aired Honor And Pride on it’s Comcast channel
December 2011 through January 2012.
In 2012 I directed, wrote, and produced three short films Crazy,
Sexy, and Cool. In the summer of 2013 Sexy and Cool were screened as official
selections of the Philadelphia Qfest Film Festival. These three films have
spawned into the CSC Series, a new web series that will follow the lives of
five women and discover their past and present issues.
Jaime- The illogical wife
Dana- The Dweller
Rayvn- The quirky enthusiast
Joy- The school teacher
Dekon- The bully
Each episode will expound on their current lives, explore their
backgrounds, and unleash loads of secrets from their past. The CSC Series will
also focus on issues such as: Low self-esteem, addiction, friendship, family,
and seeking therapy. Socially, these issues affect every race, economic status,
age, gay and straight. We often brush away these matters and reject seeking
help, but they are reliable resources available. Through community outreach The
CSC Series will provide awareness to local resources such as, Qspot Philly and The Freedom Organization. Being an independent filmmaker comes with no restrictions with expressing your artistic vision. However, having the necessary funding for a project is crucial and we need your assistance with funding.

Behind the scenes is another world and a visionary process that takes many hours and funding to produce a high value production.
