To start, video #1 is done!

Well, it has been shot, anyway. And from what I saw (in between shots) its STUNNING. I'm truly ecstatic. It will still be around a week until I receive the edits but I'm really excited. For Go Round, I channeled Esmerelda from Hunchback of Notre Dame, more so in looks/costuming and went with the idea that gypsies have no place to call home. You'll see what I mean. lol

Outside of the absolutely stunning video, there's so much devastation surrounding me. The fires literally have really pushed me to finding and figuring out the delicate balance of pressing on/being conscientious of what's happening...Especially because I have been outsourcing SO MUCH this time around, I am taking the next video planning stages with vendors, spaces, etc a little slower. Just being mindful that we can all touch the shoulder of someone who has experience immense loss (or it's we ourselves)...and I want to respect that while still finding ways to move forward (and working with so many who are now having to figure how to rebuild, from scratch). This is when you see who really values community.

Here's a few photos from Go Round. I seriously adore the look, all of the people I worked with this time around (costuming, horse owners/stable, camera teams, hair/makeup)! It took a village an I'm so grateful.
