Brief Message to Members: 

I am a fairly versatile filmmaker/documentarian who is presently seeking distribution of a doc I did a couple of years ago, while simultaneously editing my latest short film (35 minutes) and writing two screenplays. I am a Master's Student at the U of Utah in Film and Media Arts where I receive and have always received tremendous support. Most of my older stuff can be viewed on vimeo.com if you type in Janelle Waters Vigil. My short documentary, in particular, has just been accepted into it's first film festival, so I have high hopes for it. Titled "The Long Journey Home," it is an inspiring look at a young woman's journey back to sanity and well-being, where she can finally make the difference she was born to make. I love networking, comedy, funny people, and spirituality, which makes all the difference in my life--otherwise I'd be a negative piece of crap!
