Director Biography - Emily Brubaker

Emily’s passion for storytelling began as a child when she would often ‘borrow’ the family camcorder in order to film elaborate stories and adventures acted out by her starring ensemble cast of stuffed animals and dolls.

Her journey as a filmmaker took off in high school when she was accepted to the prestigious Governor’s School for the Arts in Norfolk, Virginia.

The first film she made, an award-winning short titled The Spark, truly “sparked” her love for film, especially the aspects of directing and writing.
