Stephanie Halovanić
Stephanie Halovanić is a queer Croatian-American filmmaker and commercial director based in New York City. With 5 years at Pinterest and a career directing commercials, she brings a sharp visual sensibility, comedic instinct and distinctly female perspective to everything she makes to her narrative work.
A comedy director at heart, Stephanie has collaborated with an exciting roster of talent, including the iconic Sarah Michelle Gellar, Broad City’s Ilana Glazer and SNL’s rising star Jeremy Culhane. Alongside her commercial work, she’s directed 4 short films, building a body of narrative work rooted in absurdity, female relationships and the experience of being a woman.
In 2020, she founded Low Budget Women in Film, a community supporting female and non-binary artists making work with low to no budgets, rooted in the belief that money should never be a barrier to making art or telling your story.
