Lowe will soon be joining the ranks of Hallmark movie directors. But first, she’ll learn what it takes to make one of the channel’s signature rom-coms by shadowing another filmmaker as the inaugural participant in the “Make Her Mark Women’s Directing Program.” The new initiative is an on-the-job mentorship where aspiring female filmmakers shadow established directors throughout the entire production of a Hallmark movie. Each candidate then goes on to direct her own Hallmark movie, with her mentor assuming the role of shadow and executive producer.
