24 Apr Epic Flips and Editing
Independent filmmakers wear multiple hats. We often times are the writers, the producers, the directors, the shooters, the makeup artists, the editors, and the list goes on… For me, working on set is the most memorable part of the filmmaking process– people and chaos surround you and it is very much a huge social event, at least on the Moth to Flame sets it is… Off the set into post-production however, is another story. This is the part that often gets the least credit, the least recognition, but requires the most time commitment. I attribute this to a lack of…
20 Apr Our Moth To Flame Team member is on CMT!
What Moth to Flame loves most, besides making films of course, is seeing other filmmakers succeed. We wanted to broadcast to the world that one of our very own team members, Kelsey Pribilski, is now a super star on CMT for Eric Church. The video is already on Maxim, a variety of other awesome sites, and picking up steam. Go Kelsey! Because Kelsey is too busy becoming a super star, you will have to wait until next week to see her blog (hopefully on Thursday) about her filming experience and working with Eric Church. Kelsey, we are so proud of you…
17 Apr Filmmakers Are Crazy
This past weekend (April 13-14) I shot with my Moth to Flame team for two days in the middle of nowhere, for a country music video shoot with a local band called Patton Sparks and my friend’s company, ColoredLion. The effect of being in the boonies for me was the opportunity to reflect. Perhaps it’s being away from the chaos of the city or from modern technology (we had no reception), but I really had time to think about what it means to be a filmmaker. get your ex back Filmmakers are crazy. If I were to explain to any…
10 Apr Consumer Insights Blog #5: Online Privacy
People define privacy in many different ways. Some people do not mind sharing their lives with the public and even rely on their public image to make money and build careers, while others go to extremes to avoid revealing private information. how can i get my ex girlfriend back In my opinion, it is almost virtually impossible to make everyone happy, so the best solution is to have a very transparent option for people to opt out of sharing their information. The problem with the way Apple and Google collect data as mentioned in the “Apple, Google Collect User Data”…
10 Apr India Day 12: Mumbai Day and Night
After a great night with Devang, we wanted to spend the next day further exploring Mumbai. Devang had mentioned, “The Crawford Market is usually full of a lot of people and dirty and extremely crowded, but it’s where you find every day stuff that locals buy. Stuff there is really cheap. It’s really crowded and dirty…you probably wouldn’t want to go.” Extremely crowded? Dirty? Cheap? Paul and I said, “Hell ya!” We set off the following morning after a few hours of work (because the internet was FREE) to find this Crawford Market. Before we got too far, I noticed…

29 Mar A Bollywood Experience
The beauty of being a filmmaker is that I get to relive experiences whenever I review and edit my footage. Sometimes this is not necessarily a positive thing, however, 90% of the time it is. Despite having to review approximately 50 hours, 1.5 Tb worth of footage, I welcomed it. India, a life changing experience in person and even more so through the camera. Here is what I came up with for my first pass at the footage (besides the trailer). I hope it gives you as much joy watching it as it did for me editing. The music…
27 Mar Mary and Marco Restrepo
A beautiful couple and a beautiful wedding. What more could one ask for? I had a blast at this wedding, filming, dancing on the floor with my camera, and even taking some pictures in the photo booth. I met Marco through my MBA program at UT and he asked me whether I could film his wedding about 2 weeks before his wedding! Of course I said yes. Here are some photos that I took as well.
25 Mar Consumer Insights Blog #4: Creativity
Creativity — a word that both intrigues and intimidates at the same time and holds both negative and positive connotations. Many interpret creativity as a way of opening the mind to new ways of thinking and doing things. For others, creativity is just an excuse for not knowing how to follow structure. In general, I feel as a filmmaker, creativity is a mixture of all these parts. Sometimes, it is a way to open the mind, but other times, it really is because we do not want to follow structure or can’t follow structure. I cannot count the number…
