Liliana Starck

Director and Production Designer

As an Australian and US citizen with 19 years of experience as an actor, I found my passion for directing and filmmaking while attending The American Academy of Dramatic Arts Conservatory in New York. After graduating in 2018, I immersed myself in screenwriting, photo assisting, production design, styling, really any creative projects that came my way. Moving back to Australia in 2020 due to covid, I attended the Queensland University of Technology where I have since graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts New Media, majoring in filmmaking with a minor in creative writing. In 2024 I moved to Los Angeles and, since shifting behind the lens, I’ve found my true passion lies within direction and set design.
