I Love Bekka & Lucy Writer-Director Rachael Holder Talks About SXSW’s First Digital Episodic

March 16, 2017

Recently shown as SXSW 2017 was “I Love Bekka & Lucy,” the first digital series to ever be featured in the Episodic category. Written and directed by Rachael Holder, I LOVE BEKKA & LUCY takes an honest and comedic look into the friendship of two best friends who face the evolution of their relationship when one of them gets engaged.

Initially, Holder created this as a digital short that was on YouTube, over a million views, and starred Golden Globe Winner Gina Rodriguez (Jane the Virgin) and Kristolyn Lloyd (The Bold and the Beautiful). That led her to do a pilot that the Stage 13 (Warner Bros’ digital studio) team saw, green lit and developed.
