Emma Faulkner
Executive Producer
After competing in AGBO's No Sleep 'Till Film Fest in April of 2021, I founded Spidera Productions. This festival was the first attempt I ever made an attempt at filmmaking in all its glory. I continued my journey by completing my BSBA in Marketing with a minor in Digital Innovation of Film & Television from Xavier University (Cincinnati, OH) in May of 2023.
During my studies, I was provided opportunities to focus and improve my filmmaking abilities with an emphasis on storytelling and editing. As a sophomore, I was selected as the Student Executive Producer for the production of Xavier University's Presidential Inauguration Video which was showcased during the ceremony in September of 2021. Upon graduation, I was privileged to work on the crew and participate as background talent of a short film that competed alongside 99 international teams in the 48-Hour Yes We Cannes Global Film Festival. Our film was screened at both Filmapalooza in March of 2024 and Cannes Film Festival in May of 2024.
As a woman in film with Cerebral Palsy, it is my life's mission to tell stories through lenses that are limitless in the horizons they reach. I strive to champion filmmakers and individuals of all abilities in the hope that we can create something much larger than ourselves together in the name of art.
