Vulnerability is a scary place but it’s also a key element of every single creation. You have to put yourself out there, pour your heart and soul, your heartaches, fears, dreams and happiness into your art in order to create moments of connection. Pretending doesn’t work in the creative field. Only when we dare to be authentically us can we create true magic.

Introducing our special guest hosts for the May showcase: Representing the Austin 48hr Film Project @atx48hfp, Alyne Harding @noblwish & Keira Marti @ariafirebird! ALYNE HARDING has been the Austin City Producer for the 48 Hour Film Project since 2013. Alyne fell in love with filmmaking after seeing “Return of the Jedi” NINE TIMES in the theater! She got her first taste of the 48HFP in Houston in 2007, moving to Austin the following year. A varied assortment of event, social media, research and legal dayjobs gave Alyne the tenacity and skills needed to expand the local project to TWICE a year in 2015! Audacity, fantasy and the magic magenta streak in her hair may be the secret weapons she uses to overcome the unknown and keep reaching for greater heights with every new year, come what may! KEIRA MARTI is a filmmaker from Austin, Texas. Along with acheiving her bachelor’s in Digital Filmmaking and Video Production from the Art Institute, She has helped produce the Austin 48 Hour Film Project twice a year starting in the fall of 2015; earning a promotion in 2018 to full City Producer. She works with other creatives producing content for the web, interactive experiences such as LARP, and more. And of course collaborating with her fellow producer to make the Austin 48 Hour Film Project awesome! #austinfilm #austinfilmmaker #atxfilmmakers #atxfilm #atxfilmmaker #atxfilms #sanantoniofilm #sanantoniofilmmakers #dallasfilm #dallasfilmmaker #houstonfilm #houstonfilmmaker #texasfilm #texasfilmmakers #texasfilms #texasfilmmaker #atxshortfilmshowcase

Tonight’s the night! Tonight is the Night! An Evening with Motivate Pictures: A Global Vision is finally upon us. We are excited to share so many incredible films and memories with each of you starting with the exciting action-thriller “Executive Decision”. Please take a moment to check out this heart-pounding first look trailer, then join us tonight to experience this film and many other Motivate Pictures works as we celebrate a beautiful night of food, fun and cinema! @mo.tivatepictures @motivate.europe #motivatepictures #austin #austincommunity #austintx #austinfilm #austinactor #austinactors #breatheactingschool #austinfilmmaker #do512

Ok.. so you didn’t grab tickets to the screening. I understand. I forgive you. You can make it up to me by hanging out with the @mo.tivatepictures and friends at our after screening mixer at the beautiful and elegant Estelle’s Social Lounge 😉 @estellesaustin See you there! Reach out to @jenjfw if you’re looking to join the wait list! #motivatepictures #austinfilm #austin #austincommunity #austintx #austinfilm #austinactor #austinactors #breatheactingschool #austinfilmmaker #do512 #estellesaustin#

In the immortal words of the Swedish hairband Europe: “it’s the final countdown!” We are getting close folks. If you got your tickets, well done! I’ll see you Wednesday. If you didn’t, you may be experiencing symptoms of sadness, remorse, anxiety, despair, depression, anger, yearning, sleepless nights, and a hunger for more. If you’ve been wandering the streets late at night searching for answers in all the wrong places, talking to yourself and asking questions like, “why didn’t I just get a ticket?” Or, “what does it all mean, man?” Or, asking the man or woman in the mirror to change their ways. The good folks at Motivate Pictures have a solution… the afterparty! Come join us after the screening extravaganza at Estelle’s Social Lounge. A world of mystery and luxury await… and no, I didn’t make that up, that’s how Estelle describes her venue. Anything could happen in a world of mystery and luxury!

This very beach in Destin, this very moment inspired our very first short film. The beach has always been my happy place. Soothing waves, salt in my hair and sun kissed skin. I knew I wanted to write a story taking place at the beach when I watched this sunset last summer. I didn’t know what kind of story, I just knew it had to take place at the beach during the summer. And now, almost 1 year later we’re getting ready to finally tell our story and I can’t wait to take you on this ride with us. Stay tuned for more to come.

Film submissions to the June showcase are now open! If you’d like to be a part of Austin’s monthly film festival, submit your film now on FilmFreeway!

Meet Maera, the actor playing the lead role of Cate. I was so lucky to find her (thanks @pulverhudson for the casting help!) I was first drawn to her freckles, because I had so many as a kid (I hated them then and wish I had them now. Isn’t that how it always goes) But she landed the role with her ability to convey so much depth and emotion with only her eyes. That’s why I love this photo of her. Meara has a lengthy acting résumé in the Des Moines theater scene. This will be her first film, and I’m sure not her last. She’s a pro and the heart of this film, and we are so lucky to have her! Thank you Meara for saying “YES” and thank you to your family for supporting you and the film! And the funny casting story behind this - I was working with a couple casting agencies, both in Minneapolis and Des Moines, and getting nowhere. A friend recommended I connect with a high school student named Hudson, he might be able to help. This young man @pulverhudson blew the casting agencies out of the water with his recommendations, responsiveness, and work ethic. I will forever be grateful to him for connecting me to Meara. This story is just one of the many stories of collaboration and generosity that have been the best part of my filmmaking journey so far. I am still blown away by the people who have jumped on board to help. Thank you to each and every one of you! BTS photo taken last summer during our film test. #womeninfilm #womenfilmmakers #womendirectors #femaledirectors #femmefilm #indiefilmmaking #indiefilm #shortfilm #iowafilmmakers #austinfilmmaker
