Description

Stephanie Smith is an award winning filmmaker (and sometime musician) in L.A. and Portland, Oregon. Best known as the Director and DP of the award winning Indie Doc "the Wanteds" which racked up 7 festival awards, she is also known as the lead singer/guitarist of Portland rock bands Spectator Pump and Kleveland. Having toured the US, Europe, and Japan, Stephanie felt ready to take on the challenge of film, and expanded her interest in music by Producing and Directing a series of music videos for Portland bands. This led to work as a Casting Director and an A.D. for a wide range of productions from national commercials to indie and studio features, then award winning 16mm short films ('Asleep at the Wheel' and 'Painting Corners'). Her production company, Racine Stripe Productions, is currently in post production on a biography about James Kottak, the drummer of the Scorpions, entitled "Rock and Roll Forever".

The Wanteds: The Part Of Rock and Roll They Never Tell You About

Added: 08/17/2012

Winner of a total of 6 awards, The Wanteds has made a deep impression on festival judges and audiences since it's festival release in April 2011.
The story of Tommy Harrington started as a rock and roll road movie, but quickly became something else when his girlfriend, he just broke up with, shows up a week before the tour, announcing she's pregnant.
The tour and pregnancy bring Tommy face to face with a devastating past, a fragile present, and a desperate quest to rise to a better place as seen through the funny and heartbreaking trials of a man who refuses to quit. The “American Movie” of tour films.
