Matthew Toffolo chatted with Andrea Ross about her short film “Screen Time,” which she directed, wrote, produced, and starred in. Ross discussed the inspiration behind the film, drawing from her experiences as a stuntwoman and a mother, and how she aimed to blend action and comedy in a relatable story about screen time for kids. She shared details about the making of the film, including the choreography and execution of stunts, the challenges of directing and acting simultaneously, and the importance of safety and preparation in stunt work. Ross also talked about her background in athletics and stunts, her work on various TV shows like “The Last of Us” and “Legends of Tomorrow,” and her aspirations for future projects, including her interest in coordinating stunts. The conversation touched on the humor and tone of the film, the use of unconventional weapons in fight scenes, and the collaborative process with her team. Ross expressed pride in her work and enthusiasm for continuing to create action comedies.
