[FRAMED]: PJ Stegall, Senior Producer

[FRAMED] exists to shine light on Framestore’s most fascinating cast of characters: its people. Presented with a probing list of questions and a demandingly short deadline, this feature puts the hopes, dreams, and desktops of our MVPs on the digital wall, for all to see. Welcome to [FRAMED].

What are you guilty of?

Eating an entire pack of twizzlers every time I go to the movie theatre,

What was your last brush with greatness?

While out walking in my neighborhood, I quite literally brushed shoulders with Tina Fey. She was too busy wrangling her children to notice that she bumped into me but it was very cool for me!

No doubt that was a comedic sight to see. Your worst character fault?

My perfectionism probably gets on a lot of people’s nerves.

Your most shining quality?

My loyalty to my friends and family, but most importantly, to my favorite sports team (GO VOLS! 🍊).

You’re on the run from the law, where are you headed?

To a hideaway cabin in the Smoky Mountains of East Tennessee.

Fantasy cellmate?

Lucille Ball

The DREAM project would entail:

A great team and a healthy schedule.

Your greatest achievement?

Moving to NYC from my hometown. That may not seem like a great achievement to some people, but it was a big deal for this small town, country girl!

Surviving NYC in general is a huge win! Go on, say something bragging:

I’m a pretttty good dancer. Growing up, I trained with a few dance companies for about ~15 years in ballet, tap, jazz, and pointe. And I still try to fit in a hip-hop class when my schedule allows!

We’ll be on the lookout for those moves at the next holiday party! Name your vice?

Spending too much free time playing video games.

Your career highlight to date:

Having the opportunity to work on various award-winning projects: Fantastic Beasts VR Experience, Field Trip to Mars, Game of Thrones: The Dead Must Die Magic Leap Experience, just to name a few. 😉

This week I learnt that:

Ergonomic chairs are worth the money.

What do you need to work, on the daily?

A morning walk and an iced coffee.

Framestore is, to you, in three words:

Inventive, collaborative, talented.

Framestore is great at:

Generating work that pushes all boundaries and never ceases to inspire.

Favourite artform?

Musical theatre, dance, and comedy (I can’t choose one!).

Favourite image?

The images from @nasa are truly amazing and out of this world.

Ahh, we see what you did there! Fictional character you’d like to hang with?

Genie from Aladdin.

Happiness looks like:

Weekend walks along the Upper West Side.

If not here, then where?

On a lake in Maine.

What do you think of too often?

There’s not enough room on this page to list all of the things I think about too often.

And not enough?

Did I drink enough water today?

Couldn’t live without:

Strawberry milkshakes.

If you ruled the world:

There would be equality for all and 4-day work weeks.
