Sweet Treats is my Senior Thesis Film that I wrote, produced, directed, and edited in the Spring semester of 2023.

SYNOPSIS:

Lily Martin, a baker fresh out of culinary school, decides to open up a bakery out of her kitchen, documenting the whole process via TV show.

DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT:

This film was made starting in November 2022 for my Senior Thesis Film in pursuit of my Bachelor of Fine Arts in Film at the University of Tampa. It takes inspiration from shows like The Office, Cake Boss, and Abbott Elementary. Overall, I wanted to make a film that was rooted in comedy, and something that would be enjoyable to watch. We filmed over the course of three days, and in those days, there wasn’t a moment where there weren’t laughs. If you take anything from this project, I hope it gives you joy the way it did for us making it.
