About Michelle

17 years. 250+ productions.
God gave me an assignment.

I'm Michelle A. Daniel — Executive Producer, filmmaker, and showrunner with over 17 years in the industry and 250+ credits. I've produced brand work for AT&T, Ford, and Wells Fargo, served as Showrunner on The Challengers political documentary series, and my short film 8:38 is currently screening at Cannes 2026 through the Women in Film program.

I built ShowRunHer for 9 years — mentoring over 1,000 filmmakers worldwide on the business of indie film. Now I'm stepping fully into production through Seedfield Studios, and co-founding the Redux Denver International Film Festival launching Spring 2027.

The Film Development Advisory is the most direct way to work with me. Four clients a month. Your project. Real strategy.

"Most people aren't paying for information anymore. They're paying for access, accountability, feedback, strategy, and experience. I'm not teaching you how to make a film. I'm helping you avoid expensive mistakes and move your project forward." — Michelle A. Daniel

What Filmmakers Say

"Michelle helped me restructure my pitch deck from scratch. Within three weeks I had my first real investor conversation. She doesn't just teach — she builds with you."

— Filmmaker · Documentary Project

"I came in with a script and no plan. Michelle gave me a full funding roadmap, connected me to the right people, and helped me understand what my film actually needed to move forward."
