Grace says, “The hardest thing about being a writer is sitting at the desk….. I’m glad to see this one made it from the desk to the screen!”
Barry Samson-Director
After multiple campaigns as a trailer producer and hundreds of recording sessions as a voice over director, Barry throws himself into The world of live action directing with “Cats and Husbands.” He enthusiastically states, “Advertising a movie is great, but directing a movie is a whole ‘nother level of excitement! Being able to do it with your family… well, it just doesn’t get any better.”
Chanel Samson-Composer
Singer-Songwriter, live event promoter and award-winning filmmaker, Chanel leaves no creative stone unturned. On “Cats and Husbands” Chanel’s poignant composing helps breathe life into the movie. Chanel says, “Creativity in collaboration is a beautiful thing, who better to do it with than the ones who love you!”
Jane Ballard Samson-Producer
Jane has produced numerous BTS specials, hosted her own syndicated DIY show and is an accomplished voice over artist in the world of gaming.
She loves the entertainment industry and says, “Producing ‘Cat’s and Husbands’ with Grace was so much fun!” She adds, “Working with your family can be challenging but the rewards are simply magical!”
