- Caelia Adams was born in Rutland, Vermont. At the age of four, her family moved to Lakewood, Ohio where she was raised. Caelia Adams pursued multiple creative avenues before trying out film. After trying photography and music, Caelia decided to give filmmaking a try. With no experience other than being an extra in one film, and two screen writing classes, Caelia created "A Moment In Time." She handled all aspects of this film, including playing the female lead, besides camera operation. This film will be screened at a film festival in Jerome in June. Thoroughly enjoying the art of filmmaking, Caelia has produced three other short films since: 'Maybe Tomorrow', 'The Stranger' and 'The Sands That Speak'; and an experimental horror film in which she was the only cast and crew, 'The Piano.' Without any pre-production or planning, this film was produced and completed in 6 hours.- IMDb Mini Biography By: Caelia Adams
- Holds a B.S. in psychology and has worked towards a Master's degree in two different fields. Had plans to become a professional counselor but quit two semesters before graduating.
- Has a tattoo of a woman playing a violin and has always wanted to play the violin, but every time she has played one, the strings or bow have broken, despite being careful. After the 3rd time, she gave up trying to learn the violin.
- Played the piano since she was four. The first songs she played were "Chariots of Fire" and Pachabel's "Canon in D" by ear before receiving lessons. Took lessons for three years and quit due to boredom. Started writing music shortly after that, however she is unable to write down any of the music she writes.
- Has lived in multiple states mainly out of choice and considers herself a gypsy. Has lived in Vermont, Ohio, Florida, Tennessee, Texas, Colorado, and Arizona.
- Favorite directors are David Lynch, Terrence Malick and Jane Campion.
- Letting go is one of the hardest things for me. Once I get involved with something, I find that I can't stop until it's completed. Filmmaking makes this difficult, because I can edit for several months, and still find flaws in the film. At some point, I just have to stop and say to hell with it.
- Although I hate being on stage, I love being in front of the camera. Something takes over and I lose myself. Even for a few moments, it's a nice escape from reality. I love becoming the character.
- Filmmaking, to me, is an outlet for me to work through any personal issues I may have or are having. Music has done the same thing for me in the past, but the experience is over so much quicker than filmmaking. With film, I can create new worlds, new characters and distance myself enough from the situation in order to see it objectively.
- People sometimes tell me I should just direct or act. I agree to some extent, but once I've written the script, not only do I want control over how it comes out, but I also want to play the character. It's a tough situation and perhaps someday I will resign myself to being a director only. But until then, I will continue to act and direct.
- I tried acting as a child, but hated it due to stage fright. Despite the numerous dance recitals and plays I was involved in, I always felt sick before performing and then would shake once on stage. Had this experience been different, I may have pursued acting/filmmaking much earlier.
