#IATF2025 is a memory I will carry with me always.
So grateful to have had the privilege of leading the filmmakers, photographers and editors tasked with recapping this international event.

To my dear crew: we pulled off something very few could manage, and from this point forward, that gets to be part of our story. Well done!

Special shout out to my brother @itspuffy, whose dream to transform storytelling on the continent of Africa had room in it for a to fly a grateful American dude halfway around the world to tackle this massive project. Can’t wait for next time, my friend.

Seven courses. One dough. Two cuisines that had no business tasting this good together. 🍕🥢

Steph and I & our crew spent Tuesday night at Temple Street Eatery in Fort Lauderdale for “Chino Italiano” — a one-night-only tasting menu hosted by @dr.cornicione, a PhD pizzaiolo and professor at FIU’s Chaplin School of Hospitality & Tourism who moonlights making some of the most inventive sourdough Neapolitan pizza in South Florida.

New flavors, new friends, and honestly one of the best food nights we’ve had in a while. If you ever see his name on a pop-up…go. You won’t regret it!

We turn 18 today, my love.
Nowhere near long enough, but we’ll keep at it 😜.
I am beyond grateful that I get to live this life with someone like you. I’ve watched your strength of character, your determination, your willingness to choose joy and faithfulness whether times are easy or difficult, and I am both floored and grateful.
You inspire me to be a better human. You make others grateful to know you. There’s not a person I know of who has anything but wonderful things to say about you, and it’s because you choose every day to fully show up in my life, in the lives of our boys, our family, and in those lucky enough to call you friend.
Our life ain’t perfect, but man, it is GOOD, and I thank God that I get to call you mine, and me yours. Happy anniversary, amor. by @thisismo

This poem keeps haunting me.
We’re all looking through dim windows; distorted by fear, wounds, and the lies we’ve believed about ourselves and the world.

Here’s what I’ve learned working with people: most hostility isn’t personal. It’s protective. Someone’s reacting to their story, not your reality.
Does that mean unlimited empathy for everyone? No. Boundaries matter. Accountability matters.

But when I approach difficult people with curiosity instead of defensiveness - when I look for the wound beneath the behavior - things shift. Not always. But often enough that I keep doing it.

Empathy isn’t toxic positivity. And kindness isn’t weakness.
It’s the superpower that lets you see clearly when everyone else is reacting to distortions.

And on a film set, in a team meeting, or in your daily life? That clarity is the massive advantage, and a source of peace. taken in Coral Springs, Florida by @thisismo

Six months ago we took on a Lotus Cars project for Formula One in Miami that challenged us in every aspect. The ask from the agency was simple to say but difficult to execute: deliver every shot within 15 minutes of capture. To make that possible, we had to build custom software to ingest, process, and deliver footage in real time. We engineered the entire system from scratch in the weeks leading up to Miami, knowing that any flaw would show itself instantly once we hit the ground.

When we arrived at the track, the real test came fast. Our first file transfer had to move through the pipeline without a single slowdown. If any part of the workflow bottlenecked, the entire system would fail and the shoot would be a failure. We had tested hundreds of times so our confidence was high. The first real test was with the wonderful CMO @karacoraci, and we all waited to see how the software would perform. For a moment the room went silent as the data began to load. The files transferred, the automation fired, and the footage hit the client’s screen right on schedule. After that the system ran flawlessly in the middle of the nonstop movement every day of F1. The team kept monitoring to see if any issues popped up but every part of the workflow held perfectly. A HUGE thank you to my mighty team @thisismo and @steadi_d…. And of course one of my favorite people ever @mmmorrigan and everyone at @theinterluxegroup for believing in my team to pull this off. Everyone at @lotuscars including @karacoraci @njonieclund and @f1 … y’all are amazing!

This remains one of the most technical and rewarding challenges we have ever solved, and one I am incredibly proud of. @reddigitalcinema always coming through for all my productions. I couldn’t do it without yall and the amazing customer service.

Love you @thisismo

Thanks @sumprods Kevin of @storynorthproductions and @nicholaskusmich for sharing in the life-changing evening for Mo.

And to our Seal, Dan, who made this all happen in under 12 hours. Opened the rooftop. Private chef. DJ with MO’s favorite music, and transport through the night to make our next call time in a new city.

This is it. The one photo I remembered to take from Durham before the crew took me out for my birthday (it was so epic that I didn’t bother to take pics…I was too busy crying and having my mind blown by the impact of the work I get to do)…

Thank you @muse_storytelling @tristanontape @nicholaskusmich @sumprods & @storynorthproductions for helping make sure I had a birthday I will never forget.
And extra special shoutout to @drawmedia. Dan, you are a freaking treasure. Thank you for spending the day with us and for making all of our shoots today so successful.

Oh, and about the pic - I mainly took the pic because I think it’s hilarious that England has parking lots older than my entire county 😂. This was seriously just a random building across from where we had dinner, but I liked it, so here you go! taken in The Vermont Hotel, Newcastle by @thisismo

I can remember feeling so full of gratitude in this moment.

We had just spent three days playing our part in a massive mission to help transform the lives of filmmakers and empower them to change the world with their stories. So many amazing conversations, so much break through (and so little sleep! 😂).

The fact that we got to do it together, and that I got to witness over and over again so many of my respected friends and colleagues meet you and then realize how much of a badass you are, was the greatest gift I could have asked for.

Can’t wait to tackle the next adventure with you.
