Film Consulting

Vanessa Meyer has heart. She sees people deeply and cares for them through her work. This comes through from her professionalism and near-psychic tact while handling talent, to her adept and searching depiction of humanity on the page. She’s an asset to the performing arts, in all the ways she engages with them.

Tracy Hurren, Senior Editor/Drawn & Quarterly

Vanessa is extremely reliable and smart in all aspects of working on film - from narrative development to production. She helped me find the perfect editor for a film which set the stage for one of my most successful projects. She also is creative and hard-working in spades. She is able to easily grasp the most unusual projects, which is rare.

Dodai Stewart, from the late but great Jezebel.com, described Vanessa's short film CUP U. as "the best documentary about menstrual cups."

Dodai Stewart, Writer NYT

Vanessa brings a gift of empathy and openness to any conversation, and it is a superpower. She is the first person I send a draft of a script and/or a cut of a film to. She is trustworthy, and she can see the work for what it is, dissect the good and the bad, and help carve a path forward regardless of the project’s scope. She is also an artist in every sense of the word. I hope to work with Vanessa in any way that I can, and I hope other creatives can be as lucky as I am to have met her.

Jeff Ryan, Filmmaker/Actor

Vanessa doesn't give you shallow, nit-picky feedback on your work-- she dives deep into the soul and heart of your story. She asks the questions that others don't. She helps you find purpose in your work. Long story short, Vanessa has improved me as a writer, as a director, and most importantly, as a storyteller. I will continue seeking Vanessa's advice as both a mentor and artist moving forward.
