Bob Tourtellotte is the former editor of entertainment and lifestyle for Reuters News, where he covered Hollywood and the movie industry for over 15 years, interviewing key figures. During that time he began collaborating with his wife, filmmaker Jane Clark, on several award-winning short films, including DOG GONE, which Bob wrote. As the company moved into producing features, Bob segued from Reuters to serve as Executive Producer for FilmMcQueen, overseeing most recently the supernatural rom-com WITCHY WAYS, distributed by Wolfe Media.
Their first feature collaboration was the poignant drug drama METH HEAD. The second feature, the horror-comedy CRAZY BITCHES, had the dubious distinction of being one of the top ten illegally downloaded films in its opening week in 2015. The feature was followed by two seasons of a short-form series of the same name.
As a writer, Bob is the creator of two FilmMcQueen series:
TAHLEQUAH, a supernatural thriller about a young man who discovers his father's RV Park is a portal for murder victims seeking revenge, and #upndown, a TV comedy created with Marc Price, loosely based on Marc's experiences as a former child star.
He holds an MA in journalism from New York University.
Jane Clark is an award-winning filmmaker whose work explores complex human relationships through bold, emotionally driven storytelling. Her latest feature, the supernatural rom-com Witchy Ways, marks her fourth film, following a body of work that includes three additional features, two seasons of a web series, and multiple short films.
She has collaborated with a diverse range of actors including Lukas Haas, Diora Baird, David Arquette, Tom Sizemore, Candis Cayne, Necar Zadegan, and Wilson Cruz. Her longtime creative team includes Emmy-winning sound designer Andy D’Addario (Mozart in the Jungle), DP Per Larsson (The Amazing Race), and composers Curt Smith and Charlton Pettus (Tears for Fears).
Her work has been described as “Oscar-nomination worthy,” “hypnotizing,” “haunting,” and “deeply compassionate,” reflecting a voice that is both visually distinctive and emotionally resonant.
