Pick number 2 is coming in hot! This one may surprise you. The theme from the 1980s classic FLETCH. A staple of my childhood. I’ll take a steak sandwich and a steak sandwich, sir.

I was delighted to have my first ever conversation with live on where we talked about three of my favorite songs on the show Government Spin. Here’s my first pick! Thanks so much for having me!

Worlds collide! I had such a great time last night at the Knox Media meetup, and ran into a couple of my students from this past semester (totally not ready to call them former students 😭). Thanks for hosting such a great conversation, .kyla.jean and the many others who spoke and contributed! I think I might start writing a short film……..

I couldn’t believe getting a message back from Michael Samstag telling me he’d love to come speak to my editing students!

His work in documentary film, experiences with BIG Hollywood productions, and his very practical takeaways added so much value for the students!

He’s such a great example of someone who has stayed in the creative/film industry and adapted to changing technology. He found a really cool niche to set his work apart, built a team, and has made a living doing this. You all should check out Rescue Doc Films!

As I think back to when I actually last saw him, it might have been 2012 at the 24 hour film festival? MAYBE before that at the TipToe Film Festival back in 2005.....? I could be crazy.

Long-term connections are so powerful. Being willing to say yes and reconnect and do something crazy like speaking to a bunch of students or joining a film competition can lead to so many wonderful things down the road.

The first time I got the opportunity to meet was when she spoke to my Guerrilla Filmmaking students at this week. She shared some of THE BEST FILMMAKING ADVICE I have ever heard in my life.

Story after story demonstrated the power of SHOWING UP without ego, without anything to prove, and instead looking to support the project in the best way we can.

I’ve been on many film sets and in leadership experiences where ego and fake-it-till-you-make-it energy are flying. But in that mode we’re not actually connecting with anyone in a meaningful way. SO MUCH is lost under the false promises of acting superior or feeling impressive. And all those people we might seek to impress? Don’t remember us. Because we didn’t actually connect.

Real, long-term relationships are so valuable. Usually those are best cultivated in person. Being kind, working hard, and helping others truly pays off in reputation, referrals, and quality of life.

How does this mindset shift happen? For me, I have to remember that God is my provider, and that He has put me on this earth to be a blessing to others. When I feel secure in that relationship, I don’t need to look toward others to validate me in what I’m doing.

If I’ve struggled with a desire to have a certain reputation in my field, I’m reminded once again that it’s through truly connecting and lifting others up and that we all rise.

Behind the scenes in the office isn’t super glamorous, but it is important! Prepping for another great shoot today, and looking ahead to year end wrap up, footage backup, and project management tasks.

This BRINGS ME BACK. Tungsten light kits. Sketchy planning and delegation of roles. Lots of uncertainty and learning. This is wonderful! My students are movies, and I’m a proud teacher.

It’s a bleary eyed crazy week of prep with three big production days coming up! This is the real real guys. But making our clients feel confident on camera is worth it!
