Welcome to SandCherry Films!
I am an independent film maker...independent in the truest sense. I have no crew, cast, or team. The story is mine. The music is written and performed by me. The graphics and set designs are a combination of my software creations and photographs, and video that I have taken myself.
I design, create, and animate the characters using the tools available in my 3D softwares. For green screen work, I film myself. When I use someone else's work or help, I give credit where credit is due.
My passion is making inspirational music videos. Musicals from long ago (The Music Man, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers) made me long for a world where anyone could just break out in song, and singers and dancers would join in. I realized I could create that world myself and become part of any story.
I learned to animate and completed my first musical animation, Dancin' in the Holler, in 2015. It was such fun. I've been hooked ever since.
Prior to my film making adventure, I was a professional musician and entertainer, performing with my husband Jere, our two sons and two daughters as the band Cherryholmes. During our 12 year career, we received 5 Grammy nominations and a Dove nomination, and toured throughout the United States and the world. For more on Cherryholmes, visit https://cherryholmes.com
Before the band, I was living in L.A. with my husband, homeschooling our 6 children.
