POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

I didn't make this film. We did.

8 humans, 2 cars, 7 days across the American Southwest — and one truck who never missed a mark. Most of this crew was making their first feature. All of them gave this story everything they had.

Meet the team, in no particular order except the order they earned:

🎬 JESSE — 1st AD
Set hero and road producer. The person you want next to you when the schedule falls apart at golden hour. Ours never did — because of him.

📷 QUINN — director of photography
There from the very first scout to the last frame. This film looks the way it does because Quinn saw it before the rest of us did.

🎙️ LANCE — sound
Our ears, our comedic relief, our set badass. You don't get performances like these without someone making sure every whisper lands.

🎭 LIZ — "Charlie"
Lead actress, on-set muscle, and the first believer — $10,000 before there was a deck, a plan, or any proof. Just an honest conversation about a story she loved. This film starts with her yes.

📋 BELLA — road producer
The one who kept 8 humans, 2 cars, and 7 days of desert shooting from collapsing into beautiful chaos. Every production needs a Bella. We got the best one.

📝 MP — script supervisor
The quiet guardian of continuity. While the rest of us ran on adrenaline, MP made sure the story actually made sense.

🎥 ADRIAN — 1st AC
Sweet prince. Vibes master. Kept the camera alive and rolling through dust, heat, and 4-hour-sleep days.

🚚 PARKER — picture vehicle, paid actor
Never late, never complained. Carried the cast, the crew, the camera, and half of New Mexico on her back. 10/10, would hire again.

👑 REBEKAH — director & "Ronnie"
That's me — last on purpose. I had the story and the nerve. They had the talent, the muscle, and the faith.

---

8 people said yes to 7 days in the desert for a story most of them had just heard.

That's the whole story. 🎬

THE ROAD THAT HOLDS US — coming soon.

one week since filming @karmatheshortfilm 🫶🏽

i barely have the words to describe how full, happy, thankful i am for this project and everyone involved. 🤸🏾‍♀️🤸🏾‍♀️

i love acting, art, LA, and film, and i never imagined i’d be the one to write something myself. however, deep down, i think i knew it was necessary in a world where i have felt deeply misrepresented in media.

as someone who loves love, romance, chick flicks, bubbly girly movies, and grew up inspired by early 2000s rom coms, their comedy, aesthetics, and vibes, i always felt like i belonged to that world but never really saw myself in these films in the way that i wanted to.

this past year of taking this tiny idea that lived in my head and slowly, painstakingly, ridiculously turning it into something tangible has been one of the coolest experiences of my life. it has been terrifying and overwhelming and incredibly fun, and i genuinely still cannot believe we were able to put together the COOLEST cast and crew and make something that, for so long, existed only in my imagination!!!! 🩷✨🌈🍄

i’m endlessly grateful to @alenamauhs, an incredible, beautiful, caring friend and talented actor, for dedicating so much of her time, energy, and heart into producing this not-so-short short, and making it all work so gorgeously.

to @lhiannan.mov, for coming on as creative producer and being so gentle and patient with me, walking me through the process of making a short, and teaching me film lingo and all the ins and outs.

to @bellagracemolina, for coming on as co-director and making me feel so comfortable, supported, and safe throughout production days. i’m so grateful i got to make this with you!!!

and to everyone else who touched this project in any way, shape, or form: i have approximately one million more things i want to say and absolutely no way to fit them all into one instagram caption, but know that i am so deeply grateful for every single one of you. KARMA quite literally would not exist without you.

i cannot wait to show you all what we made!!! ⭐️
