Natalie is a creative arts teacher and a mother. Natalie created 'Beyond the Mirror' with the extremely talented, published fantasy Author, M.K Williams. 'Beyond the Mirror' is based on the characters and world of the short film directed and written by Natalie, called 'Seechers' © Nat Films ltd, 2019. The short film was part of the Official Selection for: The London Independent Film Festival 2020 Starburst International Film Festival 2020. The UK Film Review gave Seechers short film ★★★★ saying "...We are asked to delve into the deepest recess of our minds; to exploit untapped powers that might otherwise lie dormant. Each frame is beautifully captured and stokes real curiosity..." Natalie says..."The world of the Seechers has been inspired by my life-long fascination with dreams. As a teenager, I used to talk very intensely with my friends about dreams. We tried to control our dreams, have shared dreams, we researched the meaning of dreams and we even had our own dreamers club. I became very interested in hypnogogia, which is a transitional state between being asleep and being awake. Many famous writers, artists and inventors have used this state to retrieve their extraordinary ideas. Thomas Edison is well known for his techniques in trying to tap his subconscious for deeper insights for his inventions. After trying, for a long time, to find my own method to tap my subconscious, for an amazing idea, I began to realise, that the concept of taking something out of the subconscious and into this world, was the start to an idea in itself. That is really what Seechers is about. They are an ancient and secret group of intellects, who have essentially pulled unworldly powers, out from a dream and into the conscious world and there are bad guys who what their power for themselves." Before she became a writer and a teacher, Natalie studied filmmaking. She joined the film industry as a script reader for New Line Cinema at Benderspink (LA) in 2003, she then continued to worked in the Film & TV industry for 4 years, as a Production Assistant and Assistant Director, on films such as Casino Royale. Natalie's older short films (2005-07) have shown in over 240 cinemas in the UK with Digital Screen Network. Her shorts have also broadcast on ITV West, ITV2 Movies, KOCT and BBC Film Network. Her films have been selected in film festivals such as Rushes Soho Shorts, Encounters, Uppsala and Cambridge film festival, winning 2nd place for an Orange Audience Award. To finish the book and the short film, Natalie ran a successful kickstarter, and she wishes to thank her amazing 43 backers for helping to make this dream come true.
