I just came back from screening one of our new shorts in Los Angeles for the Pasadena International Film Festival, (PIFF), ironically not held in Pasadena but in North Hollywood at the NoHo 7 Laemmle Theater. It was a great night but not without its awkward moments, which is normal, (anyone else?) to be expected […]
What do producers do again? EVERY.THING. I recently finished producing a new short film with our BraveMaker Academy. It was so fun. I started a producer workshop and had a great crew of people working on INFECTIOUS THEATRE, a mockumentary I wrote that will be out some time in July (hint hint at our Film […]
I don’t like it. I don’t like NOT creating. I don’t like not doing stuff. It’s somehow ingrained in me to work and work too much. That’s NOT HEALTHY. Captain obvious, I know. This challenge is common for many. It comes from being a creative freelancer, an indie artist/filmmaker, an entrepreneur and (for me) a […]
This blog has been something I’ve wanted to write for a while. I may have been procrastinating… or avoiding it because it brings up just a few (read: all) of my insecurities and fears. But what better way to confront those issues than by addressing them publicly for all to read, right? We’ll see. Let […]
Looking for love? I wrote a script about it and it became one of our last short films of the year. Our most recent BraveMaker Academy short film is in the can! Which means we made it through production and editing, (post-production), has commenced. All of our BraveMaker short films made in the Academy classes […]
Sundance. Since 2013 I’ve been attending this life changing festival. It might be cliche to say it’s magical but being in person in the snow, with some of the best artistic cinema in the world and the ones who make it is something special. It’s been eleven years in a row, for me and two […]
Dare I say it? There is no real creativity… without conflict. Not my favorite thing, conflict, but it’s a necessary and important part of creativity…and life itself. Life is full of conflict. Just go on X, formally known as Twitter for five minutes and see all the differing opinions. People debating war, human rights and […]
Writing can be hard.Really hard. Even the best, most experienced writers can sympathize with this sentiment. I am far from the best or most experienced writer, but I can personally vouch for this. It can be amazing, don’t get me wrong; the feeling of having a creative outburst, the need to get words down on […]
I’ll admit there are some people I’m extremely attracted to and others in which I’m very turned off. Get your mind out of the gutter, I’m talking about creative attraction. That “it” quality. Of course talent is huge, but I’m talking more than talent. Yep, this is a blog about what I think makes a […]
I obviously had a VEST PHASE. And those sunglasses, well, that’s one of my addictions.
