About This Team
Chelsea Alana Rivera - Co-Creator/Writer
Chelsea is the proud creator/co-writer of "Female Friendly". From a young age, this NYC born/Texas raised actress had a burning desire to do one thing and one thing only: perform Ricky Martin on Karaoke (seriously, come see me at Brass Monkey sometime). Unfortunately, she soon found that she couldn't survive on the applause alone and so she settled for Plan B. Since moving to L.A., Chelsea has had the pleasure of appearing in multiple films, web series, and music videos. Her love of powerhouse women (looking at you Issa Rae) and eternal annoyance at the lack of honest, on-screen representation of female characters inspired Chelsea to create a bad ass, female-driven comedy. She is incredibly excited to see this hilarious series play out through the eyes of series regular, Alexandra! See more of Chelsea's la vida loca at www.chelsea-alana.com!
Frakie Ingrassia - Director
Frankie Ingrassia is an LA native, a filmmaker who started her career as an actor working alongside Holly Hunter in the HBO original film “The Positively True Adventures of the Alleged Texas Cheerleader Murdering Mom” which preceded her iconic experimentalist roll in Alexander Payne’s “Election.” Frankie spent several years shadowing directors she respected before she took her first crack at it. That first job was the pilot “Hey You It’s Me” which has since gone on to win over 14 festivals and was picked up and turned to series and is now being released on Seed and Spark’s web platform in April of 2017. She was one of the first females to direct the PR footage for the world famous Coachella music festival and in between the last handful of web series's and short films she has been hired on to direct, she has been recurring on Amazon’s “Goliath” as Billy Bob Thornton’s bartender, as well as a recurring voice on Tyler the Creator’s new cartoon “The Jellies.” She recently completed her first film as a producer, “The Concrete Kids” which will release by the summer of 2017.
