“My film literally would not have happened without Stacie. She prepared all of my call sheets, contacted vendors, actors, crew to help coordinate everything. She brought things to set that I didn’t even realize I neglected to bring. She was organized, knowledgeable, calm, focused, and still, somehow, fun.”
