Films
[edit]Bell founded the production company Blue Artichoke Films in 2004.[1]
Bell's films have been cited for their sense of intimacy,[4] realism,[5] and authenticity.[6]
Bell says she aims to create positive social change with her erotic films by purposely eroticizing sexual communication between partners,[7] by diversifying portrayals of gender,[8][9] and by showing diversity in both casting (diverse race, body type, etc.) and in showing the flexible, diverse, creative nature of sex.[10]
Her films have been covered in Vice,[11] BuzzFeed,[12] Playboy,[13] Filmmaker,[14] Dazed,[15] Cosmopolitan,[16] and Huffington Post,[17] among others.
