Dear Diary,   Our first weekend of production on Funemployment, despite being stressful has been an incredible experience. I have spent the last few days recovering and reflecting on everything that has occurred thus far and the biggest conclusion that I have reached is that Moth to Flame is truly a blessed company.   It is a honor for me to work with and be surrounded by talent, crew, and friends who believe in Moth to Flame and our movie. I must say, several moments throughout filming, I felt like crying (and at some moments, did) because this dream that…

For an indie filmmaker who owns his or her own camera, a camera is like an old friend. For me, it is an extra appendage that I use to express who I am and how I feel. It is my extra set of eyes, my additional memory tool. Not any camera will do unfortunately. I work with many cameras on set, but MY camera that I slaved to buy with my own money, that I have carried with me to every single film set that I ever worked on is something very special to me.   internet security software reviews…

When starting off with any new idea or venture, one feels a mixture of emotions, both excitement and fear. Both of these emotions can drive us closer or further away from our goals. Too much excitement and we forget to slow down and build a strong foundation for our dreams. Too much fear and we tend to doubt our own abilities.   People often ask me what it takes to start a company like Moth to Flame. My answer is always, I have no clue, I just did it. Sometimes we must learn to accept that the future does not…

Last day in Los Angeles on Wednesday, and as always, I am sad to leave it. Whenever I come to LA, I get a creativity surge. I do not know whether it is the positive vibe, the “I want to make it big” attitude, the weather, or what, but I always leave LA wanting to do something big, to do more.   The morning consisted of blogging and packing. I had a 3:00 PM train ride to catch, but Vivi and I had the Annenberg Photography Museum Exhibit of Who Shot Rock and Roll still left to see. I have…

Many people have asked us what it’s like to work at Moth to Flame. It is really difficult to describe because the things we do on a daily basis often fluctuates so much. Sometimes the interns come in and we just spend the entire time filming something fun, or we go on shoots, edit, and more. We decided to make a video this week to show you what shenanigans we have been up to.  

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…

Check out what happened in 2011 and Moth to Flame’s goals for the new year!! Lots of new things in 2012. Many accomplishments in 2011, but we are already looking to do bigger and better things in the new year. If I didn’t mention you, I am sorry! I did this really fast. Off the top of my head, I totally forgot to mention David J Anderson for redesigning the Moth to Flame logo and Shannon Deane who continues to help me clean up my messy sound.
