Dreamstime Stock is a Dream!

As a filmmaker, I’m always on the search for images to help tell my story for me.  Interview footage is often dry and directors who come to edit with me don’t have the time or budget to shoot extensive b-roll.  That’s really too bad – b-roll is worth the time and effort, and the cost of stock images or footage to cover boring or badly shot talking heads. On the last production I edited, the co-producer found an incredibly... Read More

Multo.com Moves & Opens Shop

Butterflies in Honduras – M. Ulto After much drama, loss of equipment and lack of payment from a poorly contracted partnership, I’ve regrouped and moved my edit suite out to Brooklyn. I’m fully up and open for editing, 24/7, at this new location, in Williamsburg. Its a cute little space with enough room for 2 editors (I share the space with another very talented editor, who is also available for work). I’m available for editing,... Read More

Shifty and Shifting

Pink Core – M. Ulto Depression sucks. I’m wishing I could sleep for days until the clouds pass. Just sit back and let the universe do its work on me. Heal enough to stand, take deep breaths without suffocating, without pain. The energy seems not to exist. Waiting for my core to heal, and start spinning again. The last kick to my breastplate knocked the motion out of me. Sucker punch to the solar plexus kind of thing. Inside out fearing... Read More

Peace of Small Moments

Mother & Son, Sister & Child – M. Ulto While wars rage, greed and egocentric behavior flourishes, hate grows and misery spreads, there is the peace of small moments to reflect on. Love in a touch – the touch of an eyelash on a child’s cheek – butterfly kisses. Peace in a touch – the soothing of cool air blown over a scraped knee. The sound of birds and wind in the trees reminds me to breathe, slow, even. The... Read More

The Woman Writer – Pillaged for Talent, Raped for Content

Sophia Stewart, Mother of The Matrix I watched “V for Vendetta” last night, and was moved, but also wary. The art is excellent, but the people behind the art are flawed, deeply flawed. The Wachowski Brothers seem to be very derivative in their works. Some have accused them of outright plagiarism, including Grant Morrison, creator of The Invisibles comic book series, and Sophia Stewart, Mother of The Matrix. Researching the possibility... Read More

15 Seconds of Fame

Part of the making and submitting promos to current.tv included making a promo bump – 15 seconds of fame, as seen by the media maker. I took the self-plug option and made it about art. It’s bubbly, colorful and a 15 second trip into my psyche.  I’ll post the piece that was aired shortly (its 3 month run is over). Peace, Melissa Share on FacebookTweet Read More
