Candice Fox is an award-winning filmmaker and writer/director based in New York City, celebrated for her emotionally gripping and visually striking storytelling. Originally from Southern California, she began her artistic journey as a dancer, training extensively in jazz, contemporary, and hip hop. Her career initially took her to the screen, where she performed in film and television for over a decade. Transitioning to writing and filmmaking, Candice now brings her dynamic energy and creative vision to every project she undertakes.
Most recently, she wrote and performed her one-woman show, Cheers Mom: Eulogy For A Living Parent, in NYC as part of the Days of the Dead Festival with Frigid NYC. This poignant and darkly comedic work highlights her unique ability to blend humor and heart while delving into deeply personal themes.
Candice’s creative work thrives at the intersection of filmmaking, music, dance, and literature. Her Hollywood Fringe Festival production, Duality, demonstrated her skill in uniting diverse art forms, while her award-winning short film, Appendages, received the “Best Super Short Film” award at the New York Movie Awards in April 2022. She is currently producing and directing a feature-length documentary exploring a life-altering trauma, bringing her trademark depth and sensitivity to the project.
With a passion for bold, boundary-pushing storytelling and a playful yet profound approach to her craft, Candice is always seeking her next collaboration.
