Crina Manaila

Hi! My name is Crina and I am an aspiring director.

​

In my craft, I tend to focus on tropes and stereotypes. I love narrating and telling stories, but I do that also through characters. My whole spiel is to always find the grey in a black or white area; sometimes that's hard, but with due diligence and research I make sure to always build the most captivating stories, presented through the most intriguing personalities. I hope the characters I model and the stories I tell will resonate with some of you!
