Hi there! I’m Maegan and as cliché as it sounds, I’m a Hollywood producer. I’m best known for my 11-year unscripted production management experience, but I’d like to highlight my creative achievements and future with this portfolio.

Formally, I was Director of Production at Paramount in Los Angeles, California, making movies of the week. My favorite production administration credits are “A New Diva’s Christmas Carol”-VH1, "Draft A Thon 2021”- National Football League, “The Jesus Strand: A Search for DNA”-History Channel, "Welcome To Sweetie Pie’s"-OWN winner of the 2013 NAACP Image Award “Reality Series” and the 3 Time Emmy Winner "Freedom Riders"-PBS directed by Stanley Nelson.

My creative pursuits as a director, producer and activist have been selected to be a part of the following festivals: OutFest Fusion, Los Angeles Black, Awareness, the Collaborative Filmmakers Challenge, Bentonville, DisOrient Asian, Imagine This Women’s, Film Girl Film, and Frameline.  I just launched my production company Hudson Philmore. Hudson Philmore is finishing its run at Film Festivals with “DOMestication” and starting the festival circuit with “Agents of Change: Project Polymer” an environmental media association, EMA, selection. I volunteer my time with LA Compost and Color of Change. I’m also the most devoted “titi” to my nephew Tre. 


Network & Staff Experience:  

  • Pilgrim Media Group, YouTube Originals, National Football League & Paramount

Production Roles:

  • Line Producer & DGA Eligible Unit Production Manager 

Creative Endeavors:

  • Producer & Director

My goal is to combine both sides of my experience: budgeting & logistics with creative storytelling to create projects in league with Charles D. King’s MACRO and Ava Duvernay’s ARRAY with a womanist, queer inclusive gaze. And at Hudson Philmore (my newly formed production company), I will specialize in womanist, queer, BIPOC, all abilities & sizes unscripted and scripted content. Hudson Philmore will make stories that challenge the exclusion in Hollywood the same way Angela Davis challenges the prison industrial complex.
