Maya Korn: A Filmmaker To Watch

Maya Korn, executive producer of Glass Cabin, screened her short film at Screamfest on Monday 14 Oct, 2019 at the iconic Chinese Theatre in Hollywood. Glass Cabin is a spine-chilling psychological thriller that shows how paranoia and isolation in the middle of the forest render a devastating effect on Scarlett (Revell Carpenter), a young tennis player.

Glamgical had the opportunity to interview Maya after the screening to talk about the challenges and opportunities for new filmmakers, specially women, amid the seismic changes in the media landscape.  Maya is a Columbia University’s graduate and is currently living in Los Angeles, pursuing her dream to make genre films, mainly from a woman’s perspective.

We also interviewed the lead actress Revell Carpenter, a young talent with a bright future who currently has two other films playing at festivals. In addition to acting, Revell is also producing her own films, a brave step for an up-and-coming thespian.

Enjoy both interviews, we are certain that we will continue to hear great things about these two talented women in the near future.
