Emma Elizabeth Tillman

Emma Elizabeth Tillman (nee Garr) is an American photographer, film director, and screenwriter. She is known as the wife of the singer-songwriter Josh Tillman. In 2013 Emma Tillman released her first short film titled A History of Caves.

Early life and Education

Tillman was born and raised in Santa Barbara, California.[1] In her childhood she would often dictate stories to her mother, leading her to become interested in becoming a novelist after college.[1]

Her education includes an undergraduate degree in literature from the University of California, Santa Barbara and an MFA in film from University of California, Los Angeles where she remembers admiring the work of Francis Ford Coppola and Alex Cox.[1] Soon after her time at UCSB she decided to apply to film school as she had been practicing photography for some time. She got into the film school at UCLA having never made a film but got in "mostly on the strength of [her] writing" according to Tillman.[1]

Career

In 2013, Tillman released her first first short film entitled A History of Caves with the help of cinematographer Christopher Blauvelt and her husband Josh Tillman, who made the soundtrack.[1][2] The film is about a promiscuous father dealing with the death of his wife and his children who attempt to have him to theirselves through the practice of magic.

Tillman worked as a producer on Jonathon King's 2013 short film Real Violence.[1]

Tillman has co-directed and directed music videos for two of her husband's songs, the former being "Chateau Lobby" (which was co-directed by her husband) and the latter being "God's Favorite Customer" (off Josh Tillman's album of the same name).[1] The video for "God's Favorite Customer" was directed as one long take with only one hidden cut and features Josh Tillman roaming the streets of New York in the early morning.

In 2017 Emma Tillman released her first book of photographs featuring photos from her personal life spanning the 10 years between 2007 and 2016.[3] Each photograph features a fragment from her personal diary.[4] It begins with a creatively formative trip she took to France and ends with her many photos documenting the time spent with her husband, among other things.

As of 2018 she is working on a short film titled The Wheel and has several scripts for feature films that she hopes to be able to begin shooting someday.[1]

Style and Themes

Tillman's photography has heavily featured her personal life and "the beauty of the mundane".[5] Her photography draws comparisons to photographers such as William Eagleton, Nan Goldin, and Stephen Shore for their ability to capture "the colours and smells and feel of people’s personal and private lives in the vast spaces outside the conurbations we are familiar with from popular culture".[5]

Themes featured in Tillman's film A History of Caves are "family, death, neglect, affection, recklessness", and magic. Tillman has said that the title is in reference to the "cavernous heart" and that which is "unknowable" about it.[1]

Personal Life

Emma Tillman married singer-songwriter Josh Tillman in 2013 in Big Sur, California.
