Director
Nadine Charleson
I live for bringing stories to life, whether I'm behind the camera or in front of it. My filmmaking roots go back to high school, where I ran the AV club and snagged national recognition for my anti-drinking and driving PSA in a CBC competition.After diving into directing during my theatre degree at SFU, I recently jumped back in with Cat Hostick's directing course at LB Acting Studios. Now I'm diving headfirst into my first short film for the Firecracker Department's Comedy Film Igniter competition.My experience as both an actor and Assistant Director gives me a unique edge in the director's chair - I understand what it takes to bring out great performances while keeping everything running smoothly on set.
I'm passionate about putting women at the center of stories and creating opportunities for diverse talent both on screen and behind the camera.When I'm not calling the shots or performing, you'll find me running Center Stage Design, helping other artists build knockout websites. Based in Toronto, I'm always cooking up new ways to tell stories that hit home.
