Hi everyone, my name is Fiona Ashe and I am an Irish Film Director and Screenwriter who specialises in political thrillers about social injustice. My other favourite genres include musicals, drama and Film Noir. I reached the Quarterfinals of the Academy Nicholl Fellowships in Screenwriting in 2016. I am currently attached to direct Film Noir ‘Lady Beth’, comedy ‘Wheels Up’ and war drama ‘Cracks In The Ice'. My award-winning Film Noir ‘Shades of Gray’ was endorsed by Oscar-nominated filmmaker Jim Sheridan as “very well directed.” You can watch 'Shades of Gray' here: https://vimeo.com/119069900 and there's plenty more information about my work on my website: http://fionaashe.com. I’m delighted to connect with the Stage 32 community!

Good Afternoon, my name is Carol Jackson. I'm a documentary filmmaker, screenwriter, and photographer. I finish my BA in Film Studies at Webster University here in Saint Louis, Mo. in 2016. How time flies, with that being said, I accomplish this after trying for thirty years. With kids and job in the way, I finally accomplish a small part of my dream.
In March of 2016, and two months before graduating, my class and I had a chance to take a personal tour of Warner Bros and Fox studios. I had hopes and dreams of moving to California that particular year but it did not happen. Enough about me. Nice to me all of you.

What drove you to do "..political thrillers about social injustice." That is deep.

Hello Fiona. Welcome. Great work on Shades of Grey. The black and white concept really works.

Admirable acting!!
Hi Peter Roach, I have a very strong sense of social justice and many of the international stories of social injustice — especially those involving political corruption — lend themselves well to the thriller genre.
Thank you so much, Steve Hamm, for your wonderful feedback. I really appreciate your praise of Shades of Gray! And thank you for taking the time to watch it.
