Danielle Goetz (formerly Calodney) is a comedy director with a rom-com knack for turning chaos into gold. She’s helmed global campaigns for major brands like Snickers, Twix, Nike, Facebook, HomeGoods, and Bioré, blending sharp storytelling with vibrant, design-driven visuals.

Hailing from the suburbs of North Texas, Danielle's early diet of Nickelodeon shows, Kurt Vonnegut novels, and the chaos of her large blended family nurtured her unique talent for finding humor and absurdity in the most commonplace settings. That sensibility powers her work today: relatable humor, quick-fire timing, and art direction that pops off the screen.

A former documentary DP (with credits from the Nobel Peace Prize Committee to Capital One and an HBO feature doc), Danielle brings the scientific eye of a cinematographer and the artistic instincts of an improviser to every set. Her superpower? Guiding actors to fearless, funny performances while making complex shoots feel effortless.

Now fully behind the camera as a director, she’s built a body of work in short-form comedy that’s bold, memorable, and full of heart.
