WRITER/DIRECTOR ERIN GALEY

A writer, director, & creative producer in the narrative, music video, and commercial worlds, Erin’s work explores soulful character-based stories, identity & empathy, the voice of the athlete, and wild natural spaces. Her narrative work features dynamic & rich female leads in nuanced genre stories. In the commercial space she loves uncovering what makes athletes tick, connecting audiences to the engine that drives greatness.

A graduate of NYU Tisch Grad Film, Erin studied under mentors like Ramon Menendez, Oliver Stone, Lesli-Linka Glatter (directing shadow, HBO), Shekhar Kapur, and Bobby Bukowski. Her thesis film Sahasi Chori (Brave Girl) premiered at SXSW, screened at 37 festivals worldwide (including the DGA), and garnered critical acclaim and awards like the Women In Film Directing Award, the Carl Lerner Award for a Film With Social Significance, and Best of Fest at Palm Springs. The film is available to stream on Apple TV, Google Play, and Vimeo On Demand.

In 2013 she founded production company FLICKER, and has since helmed brand & agency work as a Director & Creative Producer for clients like Carhartt, Nike, Project Rock, UFC, The North Face, National Geographic, adidas, Marriott, YouTube Music, ODESZA, Big Wild, and many more.

Erin is in development on her first feature film, SEE YOU SEE ME, a grounded sci-fi thriller set in the rustic helm of the Pacific Northwest. With it she attended BendFilm: Basecamp in 2024, Stowe Story Labs 2025 (Black List Fellowship Finalist), and was invited to pitch at the 2025 Cordillera PitchFest. It recently won the Sci-Fi Category in the Final Draft Big Break Competition, and was a second rounder at both the 2025 Austin Film Festival and the Sundance Development Track 2026.

In her spare time she loves to snowboard, trail run, cook, explore, and is learning how to play bass guitar.
