Your Room— Organized

Rugs really make a room. I wrapped my scarfs around the pole and bringing my dresser down from the old house (that I was going to film at) tomorrow. I can't wait to film in my new room.

It was actually really cool: Last time I was in Cleveland, I jumped on CraigsList and bought items for a set design at my old house that is currently still vacant. I bought a dresser, a vintage bed frame and small end tables. I originally was going to use the set design as a pretend NY apt, but then decided to script in the show the actual truth of my entrepreneurial journey— being back and from Cleveland and NY. Turns out I can film in my parents' new house because I have my own room now that the construction is over. So, it all worked out with the filming schedule.


Being an entrepreneur for 3 years so far, I have learned that there is no way to get to the next level unless your work environment and room are in complete organization. And, I'm not talking about cleaning your room and putting your clothes away. I'm talking, if someone says, "hey, do you have a stapler or a orange scarf or a safety pin." You smile and say, "Why, of course", and within 10 seconds you retrieve the items. You know EXACTLY and PRECISELY where all your belongings are at all times. Imagine how much easier your life will be? Think about how less stressed you will be and how much time you would save. You will be so much happier if you just got into the HABBIT of always putting items back where they belong after use.

Focus on complete organization this weekend and choose something else for your New Years Resolution.

Road Less Traveled

Back in Ohio with my family. I recognized being back in Ohio right away when a baggage helper immediately approached me with a dolly. He was SO nice!

My camera man, Mike, still has one of my hard drives with The Lights footage on it in NY. I need him to capture a tape and film and capture Aimee, Sarah (Sara Claire and Esther) and Elle (Marigo's client of Otrera).

It's perfect timing because I will not be working until I empty out and organize my 3 suitcases. I have to be Feng Suied out before I can even begin to edit the trailer and the pilot.

I really am just going to respect the timing and get the work done without any stress. Im going to make a vision board with what I envision for the premiere and just stay positive and hopeful. I'm going to balance working on my body ( ballet, eating lots of fruits and vegetables), oxygen water with editing The Lights.

Once I'm settled here I'm going to meet with some potential investor sponsors here as soon as the trailer is done. In fact, one of my friends from Ohio State who owns a well known energy drink gave me the go ahead to send him over the sponsorship proposal-- so that prospectus with trailor is on my top to do list. It's all going to work!! I just believe.

What an amazing New Year it's going to be!

Thanks for reading--whoever you are. xo

Secret Aps for the blogger on the go

So.... I've been thinking how to ween myself off the computer. Thoughts of blissful facials and being drivin around in a Lincoln Town car for filmed coffee meetings at Macchiato and to ballet training. A driver = lifestyle.

Here I am on the BlogPress app managing this post. I am going to search for a Google image AND color correct it- all from my phone.











Wow it took about a minute to do all this mobilelly:

Recap of what I designed:
1. Search an image on Google images.
2. Crop out the credit
3. Color correct and only make certain portions of the image black and white and other portions in color.

The secret aps and how to:
1. Download "Image Pro" where you can search for any google image and easily save it to your camera library.

2. Download "Photo Daily" where you can easily open an image from your camera media library. There you can effortlessly crop to different sizes and add fun filters and color correct- adjusting the contrast. You press save and it saves the new arty image to your photo library.

3. Last Download "Color Splash" where the image becomes black and white automatically and you just finger point where you want color on your image. Wow this is better than Photoshop to do this technique!

Happy Blogging.
