Emily Troedson is a director/producer based in Los Angeles, CA, and originally from Minnesota where, after a stint teaching English and mythology, she worked for nearly a decade in film, animation, and digital production. Her debut feature, Blue Balloons,

premiered at the Twin Cities Film Fest and won the Women in Film Award from the CARE Film Festival. The script was a Quarterfinalist for the Act One Screenplay Competition. 

​

Most recently, she wrote, directed, and produced the dark comedy short film, Rage Rhonda, currently in its festival run. Her feature script, The Dark Days of Cassidy Krystian, was selected for the 2024 Stowe Story Santa Fe Writers' Retreat and the 2023 Stowe Story Producers' Lab. The script was a Quarterfinalist for The Writers Lab and 

 the ScreenCraft Film Fund.

​

She produced the short film, Cult, directed by Wei-Ling Chang, the mobile series, Trevor and the Virgin 2, for Hooked and Snapchat, and she was Production Supervisor for two Peanuts specials directed by Clay Kaytis.  She is a member of the

Producers Guild of America and Film Fatales.

​

Emily founded the company, Goat Song Films. The name originates from Greek tragedy when a choral dance was performed around a goat in honor of Dionysus, the god of harvest, wine, theater, and religious ecstasy. The ethos behind the goat-song—passion, renewal, growth—is what inspires her work.
