Devin Gillis
Devin is able to add a unique perspective to her work because as a second-generation immigrant to the United States with family all around the world, from a very young age she began traveling. She’s lived in South Africa, the U.S, Spain, and Canada. What she’s learned from these experiences has allowed her to gain an entirely new perspective on the world and her place in it since she was small. Her work in photography, which has spanned across her whole lifetime, has instilled huge importance on what’s in the shot, the colors, the lighting, and how that all aids in telling the grander story. She believes a good combination of experience, dialogue, and visual creativity can create something not only entertaining but memorable and impactful. As a result, her work has the perfect balance of depth and aesthetics. Devin studied Filmmaking Practices at Barrett the Honors College at Arizona State University - graduating summa cum laude - and did a post graduate degree in Writing for TV, Films & Games at Vancouver Film School. Her work in the industry expands from writing, producing, and directing to styling and production design. Her short film "Oopsy Daisy" won over a dozen awards internationally and screened in NYC at the Big Apple Film Festival. The two remaining short films in the Oopsy Daisy trilogy “Rug Burn” & “Nothing Mattress” are also premiering in NYC at The Iron Mule Short Comedy Festival. Additionally, she is one of the founders of Fourth Floor Film where she is currently working on producing and developing a series which she helped create and write.
