From a childhood in Hawai’i, sprung a lifetime of telling creative stories. My goal as a filmmaker is to share life experiences and emotions through film with the people of this world. My name is Stephanie Michelle Lokelani Cullen and I am a renewed film creative who wants to make you laugh, cry, and consider the deeper meanings of life through my chosen artistic medium of film. As a renewed film creative, I believe that starting over can be a huge asset when it comes to sharing your artistic vision. Starting over gives us a clean slate that allows us to think outside the box and envision a world where anything can happen. When it comes to film, that is the absolute truth - anything can happen and I am here to make that happen for you. I am an original, self-taught filmmaker, who learned through trial-and-error and taking many risks. Due to my unwavering passion and drive, I am now a professional videographer and editor for the large tech company, HP, and am also attending Full Sail University to get my bachelor of science degree in Digital Cinematography. I’ve wielded Sony and Canon cameras on many a shoot and edited with Adobe Creative Cloud software in Premiere Pro, Audition, and After Effects. Filmmaking is my life and I approach every project I do with equal amounts of energy and dedication. I am an award-winning producer, director, cinematographer, editor, and storyteller who believes in bringing your story to life on film with fresh eyes and a renewed creative perspective.
