Vanessa Rae Lerma is a director and producer from San Antonio, Texas and is the Co-Owner of Screenville Films, established in 2015. She has over 15 years experience producing and directing plays and musicals from San Antonio to New York City, but decided to start getting involved in film in 2011. She Co-founded and served as the Managing Director for Lone Star Theatre Company in Manhattan, where the goal was to produce Texas pages on New York stages. During the pandemic, she decided to leave her teaching career of 13 years to work full time in the film industry, where she serves as a Production Manager. When not involved with film, she serves as a Managing Director for Teatro Audaz, a theatre company who exclusively produces Latinx content for the San Antonio community. She decided to take the next step in her career by Co-Creating the Web Series, Most Likely To, and directed all six episodes, which features a predominantly Latino and LGTBQ cast and crew.
Director Statement
As a lifelong lover of situational comedies, this series was created for this specific group of actors in the midst of the pandemic, with long time collaborator David Davila. Most Likely To is a series that features Latinx and LGBTQ talent from San Antonio, Texas, which isn’t always authentically portrayed on television or film. As a former theatre teacher, I wanted to give my students an opportunity to perform and represent our San Antonio Cultura in a way that is authentic to us.
