Meet the Crew

Lillian Elliott

Writer/Director/Producer/Production Designer

Lillian Elliott wears many hats. She created the world of Yoro and continues to expand it every day like the crazy fantasy lover she is. She stopped listing her roles when it exceeded one line, but she was also the cinematographer and costume designer for Lost & Found: Pocket Dimensions & Dissolved Mysteries: The Lost Princess and graphic designer for 10 Q’s with Daema Laeksya. She also made this website. She hopes you love this world as much as she does.

Assistant Director/PSM/Best Person/VFX (L&F)

Matt Yackulak is a writer, director, cinematographer and editor from MD. He graduated from UMD College Park with a dual degree in Immersive Media Studies and Cinema & Media Studies. Lots of Media Studies. His original short film, Mathematical Sin, is coming out soon. He was Lillian’s right hand on her first few films, including Lost & Found: Pocket Dimensions and did basically everything necessary to make the set run smoothly while Lillian was losing her mind. He’s just moved to Los Angeles, a very exciting update for him and a huge loss for the MD film industry, especially for Lillian. He’s the nicest person you will ever meet. He also didn’t send me a bio. – Lillian
