Hi! I'm Lisa. I work in TV and film as a producer, writer, and director. This is my blog about the work I do and the news, trends and technologies that touch it, with the occasional totally unrelated bits thrown in.

I thought the gayness was what was going to freak people out, and in a lot of ways, it’s the femaleness that causes more problems in a straight, male world.

As you navigate through the rest of your life, be open to collaboration. Other people and other people's ideas are often better than your own. Find a group of people who challenge and inspire you, spend a lot of time with them, and it will change your life. No one is here today because they did it on their own…

Love these promos from Stun Creative for A&E. Clever scripts and a great performance from TJ Miller.

Key art is an art, especially when Frank Ockenfels is behind the lens. Great profile of him in today’s PromaxBDA Brief.

Really like the direction TBS is taking their brand. Between this tease for SEARCH PARTY and the promos for FULL FRONTAL WITH SAMANTHA BEE, the creative team over there is killing it.

How Did a Show Like Mr. Robot End Up on USA?

It's off-brand for the network, and that is exactly the point.
