I come to directing with 16 years as a working actress under my belt. Sets of all sizes have been the best classroom I could ask for, working alongside greats on productions such as AMC’s ‘The Walking Dead’, TNT’s ‘Dallas’ and New Line’s ‘Final Destination 5’.

SCRATCH
“Bell’s first step into the director’s pool is both an entertaining and eerie affair...”
Scratch won the the ‘best cinematography’ award at the Chicago Horror Film Festival, and the ‘best thriller’ short at the Women in Horror Film Festival.
‘Emma’s style as a director is a delight for any actor… you want to be a part of someone’s vision and feel safe and free. That was every bit the experience working with Emma. When your director is intrinsically connected to the story they are telling, it’s a beautiful place and film to be on.’ ~Bel Delia, actress/producer on Scratch
Between the Pines
“Bell has the rare gift of creating haunting magic and mystery. Her latest ‘Between the Pines’ sends the viewer on a journey careening deliciously from poignancy to enchantment to melancholy and back again.”
Between the Pines marks Emma’s second directing venture and first written by credit.
