Hello, my name is Madelyn Gill and I am from Boston, Massachusetts. I was born and raised in the Hollywood East, and always dreamed of making movies.

 

I graduated summa cum laude from the University of Hartford studying Cinema and Digital Media and Journalism in May 2023.

​

Throughout my academic career, I have been involved with the Student Television Network as a writer and I was the Managing Editor of The Hartford Informer newspaper.

​

I have worked alongside industry professionals on a couple of commercial projects for Sandbox Medical as a video editor and producer for their products, JollyPop® and CuddlePea®. These videos were distributed internationally to China and Norway and I handled all aspects of production. Working closely with the business owners, graphic designer, and marketing liaison at the company, I was exposed to a whole new side to video production.

​

I have also assisted in a variety of other projects, from political campaign videos, to athletic organizations.

 

Film and television production is my passion, therefore, in my spare time, I love to be working on set. I have been involved in a few feature films like I Wanna Dance With Somebody, Marvel’s Madame Web, and Good Burger 2 doing background work. In addition to those films, I have also worked on a television series for HBO entitled Julia, earning myself the opportunity to join the Screen Actor’s Guild.

 

While I was not introduced to formal filmmaking training until college, most of what I know has been learned from real life experience. On many occasions, I have found myself networking and simply observing the creative process in a professional setting.

 

 I am taking the next step in pursuit of a career in the media industry to someday produce and direct my own films. I am looking to perfect my technical abilities and develop my own unique style. 

 

While I am still in the process of building my portfolio, I continuously seek out productions both large and small to gain experience in different aspects of filmmaking. Whether it be production design, editing, or background acting, I love navigating the fast paced environment.
