Kristina Schoentag, Director/Producer
A native of Hollywood, California, Kristina Schoentag spent many of her formative years being dragged behind the back of her brother’s dirt bike in hopes of reenacting the most poignant scenes of Indiana Jones. Many years and a film degree later Kristina still has the same “make movies or die” attitude. Her films Laugh at the Fat Kid and Little Albert exhibit her unique ability to manipulate awkward into enchanting. In addition to producing for Disney and Yahoo!, Kristina has continued to develop characters for both the big and small screens. Most recently she has been working on another short film, Smarty Pants, as well as a pilot for a children’s TV series. In addition, she is constantly writing in hopes of spotlighting the quirky and improbable sparks of life. You can reach her at kristina@schoentag.com.
