I went to school for art, as well ,and I made this joke \u2026 I feel like it was like 13 years ago when we shot Snooki & JWoww<\/em> at Pennhurst Asylum. I said if I ever grew up, I would make a movie here,\u201d she revealed to Life & Style<\/em>.<\/p>\n During the COVID-19 pandemic, Jenni brought \u201ca bunch of friends\u201d to Pennhurst Asylum<\/a> in Chester County, Pennsylvania, with no script or any \u201cidea\u201d about what she wanted to film. \u201cI only knew reality,\u201d she said, explaining that she \u201cfound footage\u201d that helped guide the process.<\/p>\n While her first attempt at directing was during the COVID-19 pandemic, Jenni has continued to pursue a career in directing with her upcoming film, Nanny Cam<\/em>, which she also wrote.<\/p>\n The project was first announced in February 2025 and stars Katie Cassidy, Riley Dandy, Myles Clohessy<\/strong> and Sol Miranda<\/strong>.<\/p>\n The film follows a new mother, played by Katie, who grapples with her dark ancestral legacy while trying to protect her newborn daughter against what she believes is an evil demon.

It had to be small because, first off, I have no right going into a multimillion-dollar film,\u201d Jenni said. \u201cI need to learn from the bottom up. And I love the fact that Jersey Shore\u2019s [been] able to really showcase me learning how to do it and how supportive they are.\u201d<\/p>\n She continued, \u201cBut again, like the fans, I call them, like, fans and haters<\/a> at the same time.
