Clark founded Modern Mythic Productions in 2025, a woman-owned film company dedicated to the transformative power of cinema. The company creates bold, visionary work across fantasy, sci-fi, thriller, and horror-not just as entertainment, but as a platform for healing, dialogue, and collective awakening. Modern Mythic stories explore the depths of the human experience, weaving themes of spirituality, interconnectedness, and unseen forces with real-world issues approached through empathy, nuance, and authenticity.
