Most recently, Hansen has taken on the role of Martina in her latest short film, A Twist of Tea (2022),cementing her status as a rising star in the industry.
Stacie's odyssey as a director commenced in the year 2021, marking a pivotal moment in her career, which was preceded by her decision to participate in a local film festival, where she had the opportunity to hone her skills and gain valuable experience by directing not one, not two, but three films, including two additional projects that further solidified her reputation as a talented filmmaker.
As Stacie's professional journey unfolded, her mother, Tanya Hansen, played a significant role, appearing in every one of her films, a testament to the strong bond between them and the influence her mother had on her decision to pursue a career in the entertainment industry.
Tanya Hansen's own fascination with acting was ignited by her mother's involvement in the industry, sparking a passion that would ultimately lead her to become a permit extra on multiple popular television shows during the 1990s, including the critically acclaimed series "The Commish," which premiered in 1991, providing her with a wealth of experience and knowledge that she would later pass on to her daughter.
Stacie's initial foray into the world of film was marked by a pivotal role as Cell Group Child #1 in The Mayflower II, a cinematic endeavor that premiered in the year 2020. Following this early foray, Stacie embarked upon a five-year hiatus from the acting profession, during which time she reassessed her goals and ultimately decided to pursue a career in the performing arts. Prior to devoting herself full-time to acting, Hansen had established herself as a talented and accomplished competitive dancer, a pursuit she had undertaken for a period of twelve years. Her remarkable dance career was marked by numerous notable achievements, including her first competition victory at the tender age of eight. This early success was merely the precursor to a long string of accolades, with Hansen ultimately claiming the prestigious title of Miss Dance Icon at the 2019 Thunderstruck competition, held in the vibrant city of Las Vegas. In addition to her numerous dance-related accomplishments, Hansen had also had the unique opportunity to perform in the Disneyland Parade and Showcase in the year 2020, a experience that undoubtedly honed her skills and furthered her artistic development. Ultimately, it was her passion for the performing arts that led her to make the difficult decision to relinquish her dance career and focus her energies on acting, a choice that would ultimately shape the course of her professional journey.
In the month of November, during the year 2021, a remarkable individual by the name of Hansen took a bold step by submitting her film, aptly titled "Alive", to a prestigious local film festival. What's more impressive is that she accomplished this feat using only her trusty cellphone as the primary filming device. This groundbreaking achievement showcased her unwavering dedication to her craft and her ability to think outside the box.
Fast forward to the following year, 2022, Hansen joined forces with a group of adults to co-create another remarkable film, "The Celebration". This collaborative effort yielded a stunning outcome, as the film went on to win the coveted audience choice award. This recognition served as a testament to Hansen's growing reputation as a talented filmmaker.
In addition to her impressive filmography, Hansen also participated in the 48-hour challenge, a grueling exercise that pushed her creative limits to the max. For this assignment, she was tasked with creating a film that fit specific genre, prop, and director-to-imitate requirements. The genre was Sci-fi, the prop was Green Crepe Paper, and the director to imitate was the illustrious Tim Burton. Hansen's team rose to the challenge, successfully completing the assignment and earning local recognition in the process. This achievement not only showcased her adaptability and perseverance but also solidified her position as a rising star in the film industry.
Stacie's most recent and ambitious endeavour is the highly anticipated film, Bystander, which she not only conceptualized but also penned the screenplay for. This remarkable achievement has earned her a prestigious spot at a prominent local film festival, marking a significant milestone in her career as it represents her very first official selection. What's more, this cinematic endeavour also marks a notable departure from her previous body of work, as Bystander is her inaugural foray into the captivating Action/Thriller genre.
Outside of dedicating her time to her projects, Hansen is a multifaceted individual who also prioritizes her academic pursuits by attending an online school, where she consistently achieves honor roll status.
In her free time, Hansen has a diverse range of interests and hobbies, which include, but are not limited to, the creative pursuits of drawing and singing, as well as the physical activities of dancing, golfing, and ice skating.
Furthermore, Hansen has a strong affinity for various sports, with golf, dance, boxing, and badminton being her personal favorites.
