For those who know me, they know I’m a big believer in magic.

Magic, to me, is the ability to transmute heart, beauty, and warmth from some seemingly unknowable, profound place. The creation of something whose origin can’t quite be explained, but still stands firm; poignant and undeniably there. Something made of equal parts whimsy and fortitude.

And truly, that’s what these last six weeks have encompassed: magic—envisioned, woven, and brought to life by the most incredible group of Wilmington, NC bugs.

The film community here left me in awe, and I’m so grateful to have been a part of it, even for a brief flicker.

It was an enormous privilege to 1st AD alongside the cast and crew of Jojo and the Freaks. This film was ambitious, challenging, deeply collaborative, and singularly made possible by the talent, heart, grit, and commitment of every person who showed up for it.

The BIGGEST shoutout and all of my love to my incredible AD team: Emma, Kathleen, Cate, Mar, Sievey, Meredith, and every one of our amazing day players. I quite literally could not have done this without you. Thank you for running alongside me, problem-solving the impossible, keeping us moving, and bringing so much heart to every single day. 💕

Jojo & The Freaks!

My first time location managing a feature, a huge learning experience, a lot of fun, a lot of work, and a lot of great people!

I am so grateful to be a part of such a cool and beautiful project, and cannot wait to see it onscreen!!

That’s a wrap on Jojo and the Freaks. ✨

This show was ambitious, challenging, deeply collaborative, and so incredibly full of heart and magic. It was an enormous honor to 1st AD alongside a cast and crew who singularly made this film possible. I am in awe of the talent, heart, grit, humor, and commitment this team brought to work every single day.

We faced high winds, torrential rain and lightning storms, creeks, cottonmouths (don’t worry, we had the best wrangler), tight days, big swings, and an incredibly ambitious schedule; and somehow, through all of it, there were still smiles, support, laughter, and a whole lotta love.

There were ops in the creek, but we were in the trenches together. 😂 And I wouldn’t have wanted to be there with anyone else.

Erika; what an enormous honor it was to work alongside you, support your vision, and watch your mind at work. Your heart and courage are embedded in every frame of this film. Watching you work and rework scenes, respond to your actors, and shape the movie in real time was a privilege. The community @honeyheadfilms has built astounds me. Thank you for trusting me to help you bring this wild, beautiful thing to life.

And to every single person who showed up and gave this movie a piece of themselves: thank you. Movies like this simply do not happen without the people standing beside you, and this one happened because of every single one of you.

The gratitude I have for this experience and these people cannot be put into words. So simply, I’ll leave you with this:

We made something special.

And I cannot wait for y’all to see it on the big screen. 💕✨

A very serious blocking rehearsal.

See why @iammichelleroca and @madim00m00 can usually be found behind the camera doing production things, and NOT standing in.

We’re making our next feature.

Here’s what fixing it in prep actually looks like/sounds like. 100s of raw unfiltered convos leading up to date one.

#jojoandthefreaks🎪 is a community-built period piece adapted from a novel and made by a Hive of filmmakers in North Carolina who believe you don’t need a $10m to make something ambitious.

Follow the journey. Join the Freakshow. @honeyheadfilms
