I have a feeling 28 will be a big year ⭐️🤍

11/01/2023

New month, new intentions 🤍

I’ve picked 3 words to focus on for K Forbes Social this month:

🍂CONSISTENCY in showing up for my own business the way I strive to show up for my clients

🍂OPPORTUNITY by leaving my desk to attend more networking events (note to self: order more dry shampoo)

🍂INCLUSIVITY has always been a highlight of my recent Novembers. Every year I throw a Friendsgiving and encourage people to invite new faces. Everyone has a seat at the table, and everyone has an outlet to make a new friend.

Here’s to closing out the year with grit and intention!!

Happy Halloween! 🎃

My watched list was a little all over the place this month (see slide 4) but I pretty much stuck to new releases and spooky season classics:

DR. JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE (1931) via The Criterion Collection

THE AGE OF INNOCENCE (1993) is now in my Letterboxd Top 5 🤍

MEG 2: THE TRENCH (2023) was trending on Max and my boyfriend and I were feeling lazy…

TAYLOR SWIFT: THE ERAS TOUR (2023) at the Dallas Girl Gang block party 🌟

CORALINE (2009) for the first time somehow?? Masterpiece.

KILLERS OF THE FLOWER MOON (2023) twice in theaters because it’s just that good.

THE FALL OF THE HOUSE OF USHER (2023) on Netflix ☠️ I’m a Mike Flanagan girl through and through.

THE EXORCIST III via The Criterion Collection

And last, but certainly not least: PRACTICAL MAGIC (1998) for my all-time Halloween fave 🫶🏼

What’s on your October Watched List?

This Labor Day hits different.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The WGA has been on strike for over 100 days, while has been on the picket lines for just over 50. The last time both unions were on strike was 1960, and performers are determined to improve conditions for fellow and future artists.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A report from last week showed that on average, unionized workers earn 10-15% more than workers who don't have the benefit of a union. unionizers scored huge wins this summer. Seventy five percent of people support the United Auto Workers Union (UAW) in its contract talks with the big auto makers, according to a recent Gallup poll. American Airlines flight attendants just voted in favor of striking.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here's to fighting for fair and equitable pay, working conditions, and quality of life.

If you think of your film’s Instagram as a reformatted press kit, its bio is your film poster.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
People visiting your profile should quickly be able to gather key information such as its
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🎞️ Tagline
🎞️ Director(s), writer(s), and/or producer(s)
🎞️ When and where they can watch
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Not only does it give your audience an idea of your film, but I promise all of your film festivals’ social media managers and press will be beyond appreciative 😅 When a festival is able to tag your film in posts, their followers (aka YOUR potential audience) can easily check out your project.

NOPE! I’ve worked with people and businesses from multiple backgrounds.

One of the reasons I started doing social media full-time was because this allows me to be a part of MULTIPLE sectors. The variety is refreshing!

I’m an actor when I’m not a social media manager ☆

I took a ton of acting classes until I was about 15, and didn’t return to it until summer 2020 on a whim. It was something I loved so much as a kid and as I started my 9-5, I wanted to jump into something outside of work with no goals in mind other than to create and to return to a childhood joy.

I guess the universe was waiting for me to come back to film, because it breathed a huge sigh of relief and started laying a ton of opportunities at my feet ☽ And that’s not to say there was no work involved - there’s been a LOT of work, but it’s work that is joyful and ever-changing and unique.

I’m also just a night owl who’d rather work on sets all night than wake up early and go to the same location every morning 🙃
