Meet Our 4th Backer!



Our campaign for our next feature film The Butterfly Chasers started with early pledges from the Los Angeles area. Yesterday we received our first New York-based backers. One of them is The Indies Lab's own Rosebud Baker: Professional actor, and producer.

Rosebud Baker is a New York City actress working in film, television, and stage. She earned her Bachelors in Acting from Emerson College in 2006, then completing a two-year conservatory training program at The Esper Studio, studying with William Esper directly. Rosebud is also an alumna of the LAByrinth Theater Master Class, where she workshopped LAByrinth Co. member, Rebecca Cohen’s “Into The Sunset” on the stage of The Public Theatre.

In Summer of 2010, Rosebud decided to tackle production; in the most ambitious project she had done in NYC, she produced five different one acts, by different authors, with five different directors and casts. She and her producing partner presented the night of One-Acts under the title, “Clandestine”. Rosebud originated one of the roles, ‘Lily’ in Alex Goldberg’s award-winning play, Lying Naked, which garnished her awards for her work as an actress and as a first-time producer. Rosebud took home the award for “Best Actress”, as well as an award for “Best Overall Production”, in Planet Connections Theatre Festival in the Summer of 2010.

Rosebud then plundered the world of reality television without a drop of shame, and starred in The Sundance Channel’s “Girls Who Like Boys*Who Like Boys” alongside of Lisa Kudrow’s critically acclaimed HBO series “The Comeback”, by “Sex and the City” writer, Michael Patrick King.

In the FALL of 2010, Rosebud was invited to become a member of The Indies Lab in NYC, Founded by the award-winning actor and unstoppable artist George Katt. Through The Indies Lab, Rosebud has produced and starred in the ensemble feature film “Miracles of The Misfitted” (directed by Mr. Katt), as well as The Indies Lab’s evening of one-acts, “Face Divided” by Edward Allan Baker , and “The Mutilation of Saint Barbara” by Mark Borkowski.

Ending 2011 with two different independent feature films, Rosebud has been cast in the role of “Nikki” in the dramatic comedy, “The Maladjusted” and has also been cast in “Turnabout”, a drama, directed by Eric B. Hughes, shooting in December of 2011. She is preparing to start work on a new short film called The Kids Are Awake.
