Last week I was given the task of writing a blog for Hack. Seeing that I am only an ok writer on a really really good day I have a lingering fear my blog posts will bore some to sleep. But I also feel like this is my Julie & Julia moment, except writing posts about literally anything else other than food… because I murder everything I make.
For my first little post I have decided to introduce you to myself so you can get a sense of the maestro behind the keys. Now, my 1 follower (fingers crossed I have at least 1) must keep this very hush hush cause this is some deep inside Amelia stuff bout to come out right now... Let's start with gifs.
This is currently the gif that defines my whole being.
My favorite season will forever and always be Christmas.
I know I am in the film industry and when people ask me what my favorite movie is I feel the need to spout off some really cool indie movie I have seen. Which don’t get me wrong, Call me by your name murdered my soul, and I, Tonya made me consider taking ice skating lessons again. But one of my favorite movies of all time is Monte Carlo, and I have no shame. Love you mini Selena.
I am currently planning a short mockumentary film as an ode to fangirls everywhere, because you don’t really know me unless you’ve seen me cry over something related to Harry Styles.
My music Taste spans basically all the genres, and is quite impeccable if i do say so myself. Here is a playlist for all the music lovers out there.
I once wrote an essay in school about how much I loved Jimmy Fallon and got an A on it. Thank you very much.
New York City is my soul sister, I love every season equally, I am often faking it until I make it with all things in life, I just bought a self help book called “You are a Badass” that I highly recommend, and I am a millennial ... if you couldn’t tell already by my writing.
I’m going to cut it there I’ve been talking about myself too long, if anyone made it this far into the post, I am so proud of you.
Sorry, there’s no donuts, but now we have your attention, so.....
A business starting a blog in 2016 screams of two things: they’re desperate to catch up to their socially savvy competitors, or they’re hoping to market themselves to you in a more personal manner.
Anyway, we’re starting a blog.
Why? It gives our intern Jason something to do*. He’s new to the country, he’s Irish, and he’s currently writing in the third person.
More importantly, he has no experience of America, Austin, or working in video production, so we can showcase the workings of a company like ours through the POV of someone fresh to it all. Plus, we can laugh at him for being foreign.
There’ll be a lot about production, filming, some unnecessary shots of local landmarks you’re sick of seeing, and some food, because, y’know, FOOD!
Now, you’ve been warned.
Chat soon, g’luck.
