Paula has also added Assistant Director to her credits for the music videos, The Realest Sport, by TP & Esco, I Love You Denard, Local Celebrity, both by Pat Stansik, Positive Decisions by Pat Stansik and Dan Henig, and the feature film, A Dog for Christmas (2012), starring Dean Cain, Richard Karn and Dustin Diamond and Rodeo Girl (2014), starring Kevin Sorbo. Paula served as Location Manager and Associate Producer for the film, Sand Castles: A Story of Family and Tragedy, on location in Goshen, IN.
