Emily can lead people with great technical skills because her communication powers are extraordinary. I am many years older than her, but I am quite willing to follow her directions to the letter and I have seen other image professionals immediately accept that she is alpha on set despite their own years of accomplishment and experience.
Emily can lead people with great technical skills because her communication powers are extraordinary. I am many years older than her, but I am quite willing to follow her directions to the letter and I have seen other image professionals immediately accept that she is alpha on set despite their own years of accomplishment and experience. This is also a rare ability, and she uses it with a perfect sense of balance: she asks for concentration and execution while also expecting and demanding opinion and intuition from the people who follow her direction.

Emily directed, filmed, produced, edited my Kickstarter video project for my brand "asum" with great passion, professionalism, creativity and enthusiasm. I hired her over many older, more experienced film producers because I sensed that she would give her whole heart to producing a great video, not just satisfy to get hired/paid. And my instincts were correct. She put great thought and detail through out the project... from conception, to video shooting, to production and editing. The quality of work matched the high quality of asum's brand, photos and workmanship. With her help, asum's video helped put my brand on the map, reaching customers around the world.
