A Wonderful Wednesday to everyone listening!<\/p>\n

Jesseca Ynez Simmons brought her film \u201cHeaven in a Wild Flower\u201d to Sherman Oaks Film Festival in 2024 and took home the Filmmakers Award for Outstanding Cinematography – Arthouse\/Experimental.
\nJesseca wasn\u2019t able to attend the festival, but thanks to this podcast I finally got to \u201cmeet\u201d Jesseca on Zoom and confirm that all the amazing cinematography in the film was Jesseca\u2019s own work. \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 In fact, she shot nearly all of it at home with this setup!<\/p>\n

Microscope Cinematography for The WIN!<\/p>\n

I could not have enjoyed this conversation more. My only regret is that Jesseca does not live in SoCal and cannot come to all our festival-centric mixers. \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 I hope that you enjoy listening to our chat as much as I enjoyed having it!<\/p>\n
