PORTFOLIO

Carrie Cutforth has produced & written across screen content:

STARGAZE

In Development. BAE SEKSHAL and ORACLE CAIN, Elderqueers and veterans of the Great Bisexual-Pansexual Civil War, are on a mission to gather a ragtag ensemble of Youth Queer Ambassadors from each faction of the post-construction Queerdom FABULAR in search of the Unity Crystal, a legendary weapon that will aid their ongoing battles against the evil TERFADER, Normtroopers, and gentrification.

Studio Killers 404

Thrown into cyberspace and left fending for their very existence, Cherry and the Studio Killers are building an army of LGBTQ+ positive, misfits and outliers, on a quest to overthrow the Evil Algorithm, a deep state like organization that is destroying the internet and erasing all its weird wonders.

SLOPPY JONES

Meet the quirky queer Millennial servers that work at the dingy dive: SLOPPY JONES. Their sleazy boss, Frank, has gone missing, his cougar ex-wife has shown up out of the blue, and each of the dodgy broke staff is now accused of murder. Which begs the question: will they still be paid time and a half for staying late for questioning? Do not miss this hilarious new dark comedy web series!

ASSET

Canadian civilian, Eric Blair’s life is thrown into chaos when the C.I.A. decides he’s their last chance to get close to international arms dealer Valentin Lazerev due to Eric’s high school romance with Nadja, Valentin’s now wife. Eric has to risk his life, without the intensive training and high tech gadgets afforded to most spies. To make things even more complicated, Eric’s falling for Nadja all over again.

All Possible Worlds

What would you do if you could go back in time? Would you make any changes? Would you make peace with a dying parent, or salvage your failed career? Save JFK from being shot? Or something more sinister... Would you manipulate your own love story?

Talent Hounds

Talent Hounds showcases a select group of Talented Dogs and the people that love them.
