Ariel Bond (she/her) is a writer, producer and director based in Vancouver, BC. As a social impact filmmaker, Ariel is dedicated to adapting true stories that expose uncomfortable truths and act as a catalyst for change. In her directorial debut short film Rupture, Ariel transformed her traumatic experience with an ovarian cyst rupture into a cautionary tale about medical gaslighting, calling attention to the issue of the Gender Pain Gap or the gap in how men and women’s pain are diagnosed and treated differently. 

For her feature project Deepfake, a feminist true crime thriller taking on non-consensual deepfake pornography, Ariel received the 2024 Equity and Emerging Development Grant from Creative BC and she is currently participating in the 2025 GEMS Genre Lab that will culminate in the film’s pitch at the Frontières International Co-Production Market in Montreal this summer. Ariel also recently produced a short film about confronting childhood trauma and a woman’s ultimate decision to disappear starring Emmy-winner Tatiana Maslany and directed by Kelly McCormack called How Brief that is currently in post-production.

Prior to writing/producing through her production company Storiel Entertainment, Ariel worked for many years as a production supervisor and producer’s assistant on studio projects such as Peter Pan & Wendy and Spider-Man: Far From Home. Ariel is an Academy Nicholl fellowship quarterfinalist and she’s the recipient of the Leonard and Eileen Newman Prize for a Promising New Writer.
