Melody Gilbert - director
is an award-winning director, producer, cinematographer and editor who has directed 12 feature-length documentaries that have screened at prestigious film festivals and been distributed internationally. The films she directs are noteworthy for featuring a rare intimacy with her subjects as she unearths previously hidden worlds. She works mostly solo as a one-woman crew and has the ability to get people to reveal their innermost thoughts, whether it’s the family of a girl who can't feel pain (A LIFE WITHOUT PAIN/Sundance Channel & Oprah), a former Vice President of the United States (FRITZ: THE WALTER MONDALE STORY/ PBS), or people who have full-fledged relationships with synthetic companions (SILICONE SOUL/ STARZ). Two films that she produced recently received national recognition: a national Emmy nomination for BENEATH THE INK (2019) and an Alfred I. duPont Award for LOVE THEM FIRST (2020). The Documentary Channel once called Melody “one of the most fearless filmmakers in contemporary documentary cinema.”
