Bio
Eden Taylor is a consistently developing performer, eager to expose herself to many different creative avenues. Over the last 5 years she has educated herself on the different aspects of filmmaking, theatre and screenwriting, through classes and extensive time and research.
Eden is always looking for opportunities to act and gain practical experience, whether volunteering to perform in her friend’s short films that never see the light of day, posting monologues on her socials, or simply writing and bringing her own works to life. She has written, starred in, funded and edited 4 short films to date, 3 of which are available online, and 3 of which are shot by herself, with the occasional helping hand from her mum.
At 18-years-old Eden puts the character first, wanting to serve any story she is a part of and put her heart into every performance. Making choices, following her instincts, and willing to go above and beyond for the perfect shot. She’s been on both sides of the camera, and wants to do every story justice.
