About Us.

We are on a perpetual mission…
We love life, exploring, and adventures. Our mission, for the past 9.5 years has been to make strange and off-color indie films while we script the stories bigger than our budget. We are finally succeeding in that realm, even if on a small scale. Our independent film production company, CopyCatFilms is located in beautiful, bustling Chicago, IL. It is the home of our laughter, hard work, sweat, and tears.

Now we are attempting to tackle the biggest obstacle of our lives…
to be good parents.

so here we go…

• Farrin is a 32 year old make-up wearing, toolbox carrying baby dyke. She is “brains & brawn”, artistic, and crazy. Turns out, she may very well be the womb of choice for this duo’s dynamic baby endeavor, at least for the first round. She is also lead editor and technical guru for the film production company and holds a B.A. in Psychology from Washington University in St. Louis.

• Mariela is a…well lets say she’s near or around 30 granola tree-huggin’ lady of Latin America, specifically Colombia. She is always on the lookout for the silver lining. She loves to laugh and usually only listens to you so that she can collect “ammunition” to use in her games of picking and poking. Paper is her medium of choice, both in crafts (such as origami and handmade cards) and scriptwriting. Mariela is professionally trained in Theater & Communications with a B.A. from Central College but is most proud of the stamps in her passport.
