we sit down with the incredible Sue Brown—known in the horror world as Ursula Dabrowsky and in the art scene as Zanne Brown. 🎥🎨

From making gritty, crowdfunded Australian horror films to crafting bold, abstract works on canvas, Sue shares how she balances two intense creative identities—and what it really takes to build a thriving indie career across different worlds.

🔥 Topics we cover:

How Sue self-financed and crowdfunded FOUR indie horror films

The emotional + practical realities of ultra-low-budget filmmaking

Why she used a pseudonym to explore dark themes without compromising her fine art

The freedom that comes from writing within limitations

How she’s embracing AI in both her film and art processes

Building an audience for both film and art in the age of social media

If you’re a creative juggling multiple passions, this one’s for you.
