Thanks Bold Journey Magazine for the nice little Q&A on my career and creativity. It was fun thinking about how this has evolved.

We were lucky to catch up with Amanda Kinsey recently and have shared our conversation

Wow. 10 years running this production company. When I started this venture in Williamsburg, Brooklyn I knew two things: content was changing faster than ever and I wanted to be part of the future of storytelling. We often focus on the technological side of these changes, but which stories we tell and how we tell them is also at an important crossroads.

I am so proud of the work that's been accomplished. We pulled off a production shoot during the pandemic in Hong Kong, screened at film festivals as far away as Uruguay and partnered with a distribution company in Israel. We have worked with wonderful talent such as Katie Couric and Amanda Peet and collaborated with first class cinematographers, editors and artists from around the world. From producing a viral docuseries for Vice Sports with over 15 million views on Youtube to consulting with Jim Henson Studios or sitting on stage at Lincoln Center talking about our latest feature length documentary , I couldn't have imagined this wild ride.

Thank you to everyone who has cheered Electric Yolk Media on from the beginning and those who have contributed to its success along the way. As I like to say: We tell stories. Let's tell one together.
