In this episode, we step back behind the camera and spotlight
another outstanding female director: Paige Compton
@dudette.director

From an early age, Paige knew she wanted to be part of the film
world—and she pursued that goal without hesitation. Her path led
her through the U.S. Army and film school, where she spent the
last four years of her military service working as an Audio
Visual Director for the White House, supporting former President
Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden

After earning her Master of Fine Arts (MFA) in Film and
Television, the film industry came to a near standstill due to
the pandemic—until Verticals found their way to Hollywood ️.
Paige’s very first Vertical became an instant smash hit, and many
more successful projects followed.

We talk about where women are still disadvantaged in the Vertical
world, what she would like to change or further develop in
certain stories (whenever creative freedom from the customer
allows), and what she hopes for the future to enable even more
creative progress in Verticals

With a fan survey she designed herself, Paige aims to better
understand the wishes and needs of the audience, allowing her to
produce even stronger Vertical content independently in the
future ️

For Paige, having a great time and enjoying the process on set is
essential—but she also expects professionalism and a strong sense
of teamwork from everyone involved . She shares exclusive
behind-the-scenes stories and talks about some of the unique,
Vertical-specific creative work she has done with actors.

This conversation is packed with Vertical insights you don’t want
to miss—so tune in and listen now!
