FILM DIRECTOR & SCREENWRITER

ABOUT ME
Sydney Tooley is a director and screenwriter who has made a name for herself in the independent film world. Her award-winning shorts caught the attention of audiences and critics alike and led to her writing and directing her debut feature "Sun Moon" (2023) -distributed by Sony Affirm-
before she was 30. Since then,
she has sold several feature
screenplay's and directed
multiple music videos that have
aired on CMT.
She’s passionate about telling stories
rooted in empathy — often
spotlighting underrepresented
voices with honesty, nuance, and
heart. Sydney thrives when working
with child actors and has a particular
affinity for stories that blend
innocence with emotional depth.
Her ideal world is one where
storytelling becomes a bridge —
connecting cultures, generations, and lived experiences.
