TEAM WORK MAKES THE DREAM WORK
Producing is first and foremost about collaboration.
It's about listening, timing, and endurance.
It asks you to be comfortable and efficient in the autonomy
whilst being ever ready to jump into the flow.
Working in a team and nurturing the individual gifts each member brings is essential to cultivating harmony, trust, and innovation within the journey of a project.
Cecilia is one of three company directors for SOUP KITCHEN PRODUCTIONS who's primary focus is social impact films. Their debut feature film the critically acclaimed Australian drama SOME HAPPY DAY has had success in international festivals, a theatrical release around Australia in alongside a year long Impact Campaign in 2022, its debut streaming release on SBS On Demand in 2023, and is now currently streaming on Prime Video. In 2024 SKP achieved their main Impact goal: to create and implement into Australian schools and Tertiary institutions a 4-lesson resource to teach about the complex social issue of homelessness. This was achieved in collaboration with education platforms Cool.org (secondary) and Clickview (tertiary). SKP currently has 2 features and a limited edition sci-fi series on their slate for production 2025-2027
2023 saw the special screenings and release on YouTube of the much anticipated independent music comedy series SUGARHOPE RECORDS by acclaimed Melbourne singer, songwriter, comedian Jude Perl. Co-directing and producing Cecilia adapted Jude's original one-woman comedy stage show to be realised as a heartfelt, toe-tapping and at times fantastically madcap music-comedy series reminicent of Flight Of The Concords, Napoleon Dynamite and The Mighty Boosh.
