To promote our feature film, Funemployment, Moth to Flame teamed up with local startup online news company, Austin Phoenix to discover the different types of startups around Austin, Texas. To our surprise, we learned that Austin is not just full of tech startups. We interviewed several service based startups as well as some product based startups as well.    Many people, including myself often feel that the majority of all startups are tech. Though this may seem this way, Austin Phoenix and Moth to Flame decided to venture into the Austin startup community to find other non-tech startups. We discovered…

The idea to reality of A Bird’s Nest has been a whirlwind. It took one short story, by Eric Hwang, written almost a decade ago and the right lead, Deke Garner, to spark the inspiration for this short film.   The screenplay, adapted by Christine Chen, will be shot in Shreveport, Louisiana, May 28-30, 2014. More updates to come. Here is our first official poster designed by Alicia Marshall.

Not many though actually watch the entire telecast, I can count maybe a handful of people that I personally know that actually watch the Oscars.

Well simply put I love films, I…

What is the Longhorn Startup Camp? Longhorn Startup Camp is a startup for startups. A bare bones startup incubator, LSC offers UT students an unprecedented opportunity to develop their ventures in a professional atmosphere. The 30,000 square feet of office space seemed infinite when the camp opened in January 2012. By the time the camp ended in December 2013, all offices were full and over 500 university community members had gained access. Those 500 Longhorns contributed to the growth of over 50 innovative startups, 10 of which raised money. Many more are still operating today in the woodwork of Austin’s...

One of the coolest things about doing what you love is that you get to film and meet other people who are just as passionate about what they do. This past weekend, Moth to Flame stopped by the Essential Oliver brand launch party, held at Delta Millworks.  Essential Oliver is a vintage lifestyle brand specializing in high craftsmanship clothing. Besides the awesome new looks, our favorite part about the party was meeting all of the sponsoring brands and companies.   Along the lines of our theme of Funemployment, Moth to Flame talked to many local brands ranging from coffee to…
