ABOUT ME
Gabrielle Milman is a San Francisco born filmmaker and artist based in Los Angeles, CA.
A recent graduate of CalArts's Film/Video BFA, she discovered her love for 16mm film while studying filmmaking and often shoots and hand processes her own film.
Her film, Dinner at the End of the World, a short semi-autobiographical drama about a Ukrainian Jewish family eating their last dinner at the end of the world, was nominated for Best Collegiate Student Film at the Burbank International Film Festival in September, 2023.
Gabrielle's art practice extends beyond film. She composed, wrote and directed an original one-act folk-operetta titled The Weaving Play. Via magical realism, it explores themes of love, art, and obsession. The Weaving Play premiered at CalArts in March, 2024. An official cast album is currently in production.
Her most recent work is her thesis film, Air Through Air, which she wrote and directed. Shot entirely on Super 16mm film, Air Through Air is an absurdist off-beat comedy about three musicians, who don't play any instruments, that go on a quest across a mythical Los Angeles to find an instrument to play. It is currently in its last stages of post production.
When she isn't working on her own films, Gabrielle works in G&E as a gaffer and electrician, having worked on commercials, music videos, and short narratives. She specializes in shooting on 16mm film, and has 1st AC'ed and DP'ed both on digital and analog cameras.
