What's happening, people. Can you believe the year is halfway over already? This long holiday weekend marked the official midpoint of the year and Q3 for businesses. Time feels like it is flying by 🤯! Hopefully, everyone is crushing their goals thus far and is on course for where they want to be personally, professionally, and creatively. If not, now is a great time to step back and reevaluate things so you can still get back on the horse and finish the year strong with nothing but Wins. Of course, I got you if I can help with that process.


I had a Lil road trip and spent the weekend working on location. The iPhone pic below is after a long day on set in the sun (if you can't tell by how tan I got šŸ˜‚)—driving from the west coast back to Denver, with scenic stops along the way. The picture was somewhere off the highway in Utah. I'll be returning at some point because people were mentioning how the salt flats out there was a good spot for shooting, inspiring me to want to write a scene and do some actual filming on 16mm in that picturesque area next time.

I always think of this scene from The Sandlot around the 4th of July. Classic summer movie. Fun Fact: This movie was shot on 35mm film in Utah.

And, of course, you know I like to have inspiration daily and today is no exception. Suze Orman speaks with passion and conviction in this clip, telling facts. Pay no mind to all these gimmicks people resort to in our industries, operating with no code. Stay laser-focused with blinders on. šŸ’Ŗ


Have a great week! ā¤ļøā€šŸ”„
