EMILY BAYROCK filmmaker and interdisciplinary artist

Emily Bayrock is an honours graduate of the film production program at SFU School for the Contemporary Arts in Vancouver, BC.

Emily's work is based in collaboration, multimedia exploration, and ethnography. Throughout her undergrad she was lucky enough to work with artists from several other artistic practices such as dance, theatre, and visual arts to help create multimedia installations and performances such as Nomadas (2018), choreographed by Henry Daniel, which screened at the 2020 AAA Conference in Vancouver, BC. She was also a participant of the 2019 VIFF Catalyst Mentorship Program.

With her Honours BfA in film production, Emily obtained a minor in anthropology which has greatly informed her work in ethnographic study and auto ethnography. By using these anthropological practices as a basis for her films, she hopes to create a personal and engaging narrative and bring women’s experiences to the screen in new and intimate ways.

Emily currently works in marketing at Evergreen Cultural Centre in Coquitlam BC.
