In this blog you will find content about the making of our independent feature film Mismo...
our journey — and the film's — as we navigate the world of distribution...
our musings as storytellers and filmmakers...
and our new project Pitchin' Papaya, the name of which is still up for debate.

Gino prefers simply Papaya while I like Pitchin' because it rhymes with bitchin'...
and bitch to me means "being in total control, honey"...
While the four hard-core saleswomen in our story may not be in total control, they're certainly no pushovers.

As hard as we try, we have yet to come up with an elevator pitch for Mismo...
Not so with Papaya which is an all-female Glengarry Glenn Ross.

It's not easy to win an Indie as the judging standards are high and winning means the craft and creativity exhibited by your entry is outstanding and stands above other productions. You can be justifiably proud of winning.
