      Career


      Jones's first short film, When the Wind Changes (which she directed and edited), premiered at the 2010 Melbourne International Film Festival and in 2011 won the prestigious Inside Film (IF) Award for Best Short Film as well as the Most Popular Film Award at Flickerfest and Best Comedy and People's Choice awards at the St Kilda Film Festival.
      Her big break was directing the short film Lemonade Stand, which won first prize at the 2012 Tropfest Film Festival. Tropfest founder and director, John Polson said: "Lemonade Stand is an incredibly well made film and a favourite amongst the judges. There was intense discussion in the judging room, and some really interesting debates. Alethea should be very proud to have been selected by some of the industry's greatest talent."
      Her first feature film was Fun Mom Dinner, starring Toni Collette, Paul Rudd, Molly Shannon, Adam Scott, and Adam Levine. The film had its world premiere at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival,

In October 2018, Sony lost the rights to the film and it moved across to Warner Brothers with Margot Robbie to star. A new creative team was assembled with the studio change and Hathaway, Jones and Milch did not go across for contractual reasons. Jones is also attached to direct the period musical Big Gay Jamboree, to be produced by LuckyChap Entertainment, from a script being written by Maria Mindelle and Jonathan Parks-Ramage.
