Mini Biography

Rebecca A. Rodriguez is a self-taught emerging talent on the American film scene. Armed with determination and a little experience in professional acting Rodriguez followed the shifting of her creativity into writing and directing. With two feature and several short film scripts written, Rodriguez, in February 2000, produced and directed her first two short films - Soul Collectors (2000), a dark comedy that takes a fresh look at death and the after-life and Floater (2000), a voyeuristic journey into the bathroom as the bodily functions of a young couple threaten the mood of love.

Displaying a wide range of style, Rodriguez quickly attracted the attention of the Seattle International Film Festival. "Impressed with the level of film making", SIFF invited Soul Collectors to premiere at the festival in June 2000. This then led to an option deal for both films with Hypnotic.com, the premiere online site for short. Floater premiered at the Philadelphia Festival of World Cinema in April 2001 and was selected by Hypnotic.com as one of twenty-five films to compete for $1MM feature film budget. Soul Collectors has also shown at the Palm Springs International Film Festival and was invited to show at the American Short Shorts Festival in Japan and Singapore. In Septemeber 2001 Rebecca directed her third short film Blind Mice (2003), a dramatic piece about the price a couple pays for a seemingly harmless drunken encounter with a blind man. Following Blind Mice, Rodriguez continued writing and since then has completed three feature length screenplays (a dramatic boxing film set in the 60s, a romantic comedy and a sexy, urban crime drama). She continued honing her skills as a director by shooting a music video for an up and coming rapper and a fourth short film, Manner of Living (2004), a dark, deceptive piece about a man whose chosen profession places he and his family in jeopardy.

In April 2003, Rodriguez completed principal photography on her first feature film Coming Up Easy (2004) that is now making its way onto the film festival circuit. She continues her work on various other film projects from her home office on planet earth.
