Carole Holiday, Director
Carole Holliday wanted to be a musical theatre actress but became an animator instead. Since she loved telling stories and creating imaginative worlds she decided to combine her passions by directing. She came to there by the circuitous route as a Disney animation storyboard artist. In her time with the studio she worked on films such as “Tarzan”, “Jungle Book 2″, and several other projects with the number two in the title. While there, she was both learning how to compose shots and how to write heartfelt, character based stories, until God gave her an opening to direct, via her live action production company, Crowded Metro Films. The company’s first project is a featurette entitled “Witt’s Daughter” and tells the story of what happens when a young man returns from the Korean War and expects everything to be as he left it, but discovers instead that his three-year-old daughter has forgotten him and now views him as an unwelcome stranger. With her company, Carole has generated many potential live action ideas but is currently is in focusing on two projects: one a romantic comedy and the other a romantic/ fantasy/ coming of age story.
