On This Episode of the Film School'd Podcast, Eric Skwarczynski sits down with actress Michelle Morgan.
Michelle is the fourth of six children from a Chilean-Canadian family. Born in Calgary, she grew up in Toronto and Vancouver. After studying Theatre and Classical Literature at the University of Toronto, Michelle went on to pursue a career in theatre and film.
Michelle stars on the hit CBC series, "Heartland", where she plays the character Lou Flemming, the prodigal daughter who returns to Heartland from New York after her mother's death.
With over 15 years of experience acting in film and television under her belt, Michelle Morgan has enthusiastically begun a trajectory towards directing and writing. Her first short film, "Mi Madre, My Father" (2017), was selected by Telefilm for the "Not Short on Talent at Cannes" for the Cannes Film Festival short film corner. Recently Michelle directed three episodes of the new CBC digital series "Hudson" (SevenTwentyFour), a spin-off of the long-running series "Heartland". Michelle's second short film, "Save Yourself", is a romantic comedy set on the beaches of Tofino, BC. Recently, Michelle was selected to join the Women in the Director's Chair, Story & Leadership Program where she will develop her feature film project, a post-apocalyptic western titled "The Plains".
