After the film’s completion, she became co-owner of Overton Films where she shot and edited over a dozen short form projects, including the short documentary, Everyday Heroes.
Her love of visual storytelling led her to USC’s School of Cinematic Arts MFA film production program, where she focused on cinematography.

Her work on the short film, Callback, has been featured in WomenCinemakers magazine, as well as BBC’s 2018 Oscar coverage.
She stands behind gender diversity and equality in the film industry, specifically in traditionally male dominated areas, like camera, grip and electric. Mikaela has had the pleasure of working alongside female cinematographers Alice Brooks (Jem and the Holograms), Nicola Marsh (20 Feet from Stardom), and Jenna Rosher (Robin Williams: Come Inside My Mind).
