BRIDGET MOLONEY & Blocks

For this week's episode, we talked with Bridget Moloney, back at the beginning of quarantine! Bridget is an award-winning writer and director working in television, film and commercials. We talk to her about the short film, BLOCKS, that she wrote and directed. She is also the writer/director of the independent television pilot I Was A Teenage Pillow Queen that premiered at the 2018 Tribeca TV Festival. Bridget shot Blocks while a member of AFI’s Directing Workshop for Women 2020. The AFI Directing Workshop for Women has been dedicated to advancing the number of women working professionally as narrative screen directors since 1974. The workshop annually provides eight gifted directors with immersive training in screen directing, professional development resources and inroads to the industry – all at no cost to participants. Blocks was an official selection at Sundance, SXSW, Brooklyn Film Festival, Women and Film Festival, Atlanta Film Festival, and Oxford Film Festival, and will be playing at this year’s AFI FEST. AFI Fest starts today, so buy a ticket to watch Blocks at FEST.AFI.com.
