THE CREW OF MS. PINK


Lauren McCann – Writer, Director, Executive Producer

Lauren McCann is an award-winning actor and filmmaker, a 12-time marathon runner, mother of 2 with a PhD in education and now she has a new love...filmmaking. She was named "The Voice To Watch" at SeriesFest 2020 and has won 20+ awards for the Girl Boxer proof of concept - an accomplishment for a 1st timer. The feature screen play is now a finalist at the Nashville Filmfestival and a Semi-Finalist at the Rhode Island International Filmfestival, both Oscar qualifying festivals.

Inspired by the films of Guy Ritchie and Quentin Tarantino, she hopes to make a place for women in this "boys' club". Ms. Pink is a proof of concept for a larger project which will sit alongside the likes of Kill Bill...but from a mother's reality. 

Lauren has a natural ability to bring people together and pull the best out of every actor and crew member. As a performer in her own right, she understands the actor's process and trusts in their craft and choices.

Luca Canessa – Colorist, Recall Studio

I am a professional colorist based in New York. If you are in need of an experienced freelance color grading artist for your project, please keep me in consideration, I could definitely take care of the prepping, color and delivery, making the process as smooth as possible. I successfully delivered many remote handled projects. I work on my own color suite or in house, and I will be glad to use all my years of experience and my top-notch equipment to make the footage of your project look at its absolute best.

I color mostly film/doc contents (I've taken care of films from some of the most interesting rising NY indie filmmakers) and I have worked for brands like Discovery+, Red Bull, Heineken, Canon, Calvin Klein. I am one of the few colorists in New York that can perform professional beauty retouching in Davinci Resolve. I am also a beta tester of the number one film emulation tool of the market, in case you were aiming for a true professional film look. I spent a lot of time during the pandemic refining my skills (you can find all my professional certifications linked above and on my IG personal profile) in order to make digital to look like film as much as technologically possible, along with learning and testing the latest and advanced techniques used in commercials by the top Hollywood colorists. I have no doubt I can provide the right, highest quality, and tailored grading look for your project.
