We will be having our West Coast premiere at the 2026 Los Angeles Asian Pacific Film Festival! It’s amazing to screen alongside many great films and a place we like to call home.
Thank you very much to @vcmediaorg and your programmers for having us in your line up this year. We love you and appreciate you. 🪩
Screening part of the “(BE) Loved Out Loud” shorts program on 2 May 2026 (Saturday) at 7pm!
Congrats to our cast and crew!
More info and tickets in the bio. Cast and crew in previous posts.
That’s a wrap on CAMERADOS! 🎬🎉
I couldn’t be prouder of this cast and crew. This film asked a lot—long days, tough conditions, personal sacrifices—and every challenge was met with creativity, professionalism, and care for one another.
Thank you for showing up fully, trusting the process, and giving so much of yourselves to this story. This film exists because of your commitment and heart, and I’m incredibly proud of what we made together. 💛✨

🎬 Behind the Scenes of “NOBODY DOES IT BETTER” Here’s a peek at Day 2 of our music video shoot, the performance day!
This video was shot across two different days, and on this one we focused on the artist performance at @light_forge_studios . We filmed at various times of day, played with speed & lighting, and captured multiple takes to get the right vibe. 💫
Grateful to the incredible team that helped bring this vision to life including our amazing makeup artists and elite bubble and confetti wranglers 😉✨

After more than 15 incredible years teaching as part of the UNLV Department of film @unlvfilm , I’ve decided to take a break from UNLV and explore new opportunities. 🎓✨
Over those years, I had the privilege of teaching more than 40 courses and working with hundreds of amazing students. I’m deeply grateful for all the amazing colleagues, students, and experiences that shaped my time there. The memories and connections I’ve made will always be treasured.
📧 Please note: My UNLV email is no longer active, so if you need to reach me, feel free to send me a DM here!
Also, my schedule is now unrestricted for corporate projects and I’m ready to collaborate on creative endeavors. Always happy to connect with fellow creatives and industry professionals!
Thank you to everyone who made my UNLV journey so meaningful. Here’s to new adventures ahead! 🌟

Summer time off roading adventure to Logandale and the 13 mile loop. Fun and varied drive that includes petroglyphs, super soft sand and some 4x4 rock climbing.
Greetings!
I am a founding matriarch of the writing & performing collective known as The Cackling.
This #SelfTapeMay 2025, we are inviting performers of all spots to flood the feed with scenes, songs, narrations and poems by BIPOC women (cis & trans), 35 years old+.
Post your self-tapes with the tags #TheCackling #SelfTapeMay and a special item to participate. All are welcome, joining is free. Special item TBA on Thursday, May 1. Watch this space.
At thecackling.org, we have prepared a small selection of eligible writers and their work, plus a growing list of resources to dig into.
If you are a 35yo+ BIPOC woman who wants your work read, tag #thecackling and we will do our best to share with others here and on our blog.
Lastly, the Cackling is based on the matriarichal ferocity of hyenas, who hunt collaboratively using unique vocalizations. So invite more to whoop, rumble, giggle and cackle with us!
aaahhahahahaha,
Aisha
