Fannin lives in Inman Park and is a graduate of Georgia State University.
Eight women, including Fannin, are participating in the 2024 Sundance Women to Watch x Adobe Fellowship, which began in 2020 to nurture and provide professional development resources to emerging filmmakers. The program prioritizes filmmakers from historically underrepresented communities. Each fellow is nominated across Sundance’s various artists programs, including its Documentary Film program, Indigenous Program and Artist Accelerator.
The fellowship includes $6,250 cash grants for the participants, workshops, referrals for career development opportunities, a yearlong membership to Adobe Creative Cloud and access to the Sundance Institute’s digital platform for artists.
Additional fellows selected this year include Louisiana-based producer Jolene Pinder, Filipina American filmmaker Kristine Gerolaga and Peruvian director Francesca Canepa.
Past Women to Watch fellows include Deidre Backs and Miciana Hutcherson, who produced and co-wrote Apple TV+’s feature Fancy Dance; Cris Gris, who directed three episodes of the recently premiered Max series Ugly; and Iliana Sosa, whose feature documentary What We Leave Behind debuted on Netflix in 2022.
