Slightly Overexposed Productions expanded is Stacey Burgay. It’s BUR-gay (sadly no sexy French accent).
Slightly Overexposed Productions was founded with the intention of creating and sharing good stories in 2001. Since then it’s been an incubator for my countless ideas and the title as to which I have worked under for various freelance projects over the years.
I started my professional career as a Production Assistant on Jane Campion’s “IN THE CUT”. Yes, that’s the one where Meg Ryan gets naked. From there, I moved on and worked my way up the experience ladder from PA to Production/Post Production Coordinator to Associate Producer to occasional Editor. I have both corporate (Elm City Communications) and broadcast experience (MTV/VIACOM/USA Networks) and have been told on several occasions that I’m a pleasure to work with! Reliable, resourceful, deadline driven and a sense of humor to boot! Which comes in handy during hectic production schedules.
Taking a break from making short form videos for Web (iMentor, The Knot, Culture Catch) and TV, this past year I was one of the organizers for Tropfest NY. I coordinated all aspects of the event from the Film Submissions to the Event Staging to the VIP party. I also worked closely with the General Manager in securing Sponsorship and AD Sales.
I have also programed several film series (Love Actually, Animated Tales, Food N Film and A Day That Matters) for a private screening room in NYC. I love that I get to share great stories and promote local NY Independent Filmmakers.
My latest accomplishment is launching a film festival here in the US called Art By Chance. I partnered with the festival to help bring their International festival to New York, Boston and San Francisco. I secured a US Screening Sponsor, managed online and print marketing. In addition to this, I also organized the main screening in New York, in which I screened all the films and invited musicians to create impromptu soundtracks to the films live.
I’m always open to new projects and possible collaborations.
