"Perfect" is the second passion project of Melissa's and third short film overall in 2022, an experimental psychological horror and drama short. This is her first film with hands-on full directing, and Melissa dedicated extensive time and precision during the casting process, auditioning over 50 actresses and discovered a new passion and joy for casting. For this film she had a specific look in terms of lighting and production design, where she thoroughly designed a bedroom including repainting walls and purchasing items to fit her overall story, as well as research on wardrobe, hair, makeup, SFX makeup, props, and home decor. Melissa additionally assisted with the creation of prop-making a life-sized Barbie doll box for the film to fulfill her vision.
