Intimate Temp Agency is a quirky show in which two exes decide to cater to eccentric job candidates who need special care and attention as they try to land strange but lucrative temp jobs. Luciana’s husband,actor and screenwriter Gregory Graham, plays her uptight ex and the owner of the agency. This show has also been accepted at the Action on Film International Film Festival in Monrovia, CA, and at the Sir Charlie Darwin Film Festival in London. Its 12 three-minute episodes are currently in post-production.
In addition to working on social issues projects that are related to her work as a psychology professor, such as the Dr. Luciana show on aging and falling, Luciana enjoys creating light-hearted shows and films, with the intent to put a smile on people’s faces. Displaying a passion for comedy since she was a teen, she was once part of a comedic touring theater company in Italy. She has continued to hone her craft here in Hollywood and has completed numerous acting courses, which include the Second City Improvisation for Actors series of classes. “I got lucky and was able to cast in this web series two Second City alumni, Julie Raelyn and David MacAulay," stated Luciana. The web series also includes French actor Benoît Laberge, who plays the part of the overly-assertive Frenchman who is the enemy of a well-mannered and patient mafia man played by MacAulay.
At present, Luciana is especially excited about showcasing her web series at this festival. "I look forward to answering the questions posed during the Q and A session about my show,” she concluded.
