She has been commissioned and employed by (amongst others) Channel 4, BBC2, the New Zealand Film Commission, James Wallace Productions, South Pacific Pictures and TVNZ. Her short films have been selected for over 35 international film festivals (including Berlin, Locarno, Montreal and Edinburgh), toured art galleries and sold to numerous TV networks (including Canal+, Showtime TV & the NBC). Virginia also self-shoots, produces and edits lower budget projects that she directs.
