Filmmaker Summer DeRoche signs with SceneOn
Rapidly growing production company SceneOn has added another collaborator to its team with the addition of internationally awarded director, Summer DeRoche.
DeRoche’s work has been screened at over 20 festivals worldwide and has won awards in Australia, Europe and North America. The daughter of screenwriter, Everett DeRoche, Summer is fast becoming known for films that are original, funny and rich with emotion.
DeRoche has produced an eclectic range of commercials, shorts and documentaries such as ‘The Globe Collector’, ‘Ruby’ and ‘Small’ (as part of an initiative of Screen Australia), whilst her music video work includes clips for Boy & Bear and The Dead Daisies (featuring Slash).
Says Andrew Coyle, executive producer, ScenenOn: “Summer has proven her talent at the St Kilda Film Festival, Palm Springs International Shortfest and Sheffield Doc / Fest. She’s building a reputation for telling stories with considerable panache, and eliciting nuanced and natural performances from her actors. We’re thrilled to have her join our expanding team of new directors.”
