THIS IS A STORY ABOUT ESCAPE 🤘For the young kids who feel boxed in. For the teen who's bored at school, and the mom who's chained to her desk. For the grandpa stuck at home all day...this is their story. Their moment.

For the weird and wild. The fearless and fearful. And the girl who traded hobbies for work...now is the time. So breathe deep, close your eyes and unleash your alter-ego.

Your dopamine detox starts now 📱📴😊

In 2018, @luklomp and I wrote a magical little story about three best friends hanging out in Montana. This collaboration led to a music video set to one of my ALL TIME favorite songs - "Have You Ever Seen the Rain" by the legendary @theofficialccr 🙇🏻

I always thought of that iconic shot in "Brokeback Mountain" - where Heath stands under the fireworks. I wanted to capture that American spirit, but for the next generation. @craftrecordings took a big swing and entrusted me & my vision. I wanted to evoke the same kind of spirit as "The Last Picture Show" or "Before Sunrise". This was a dream project with dream collaborators. Without them, this video would be dust in the wind.

I remember when @sunsberries and I thought 50K views was big. To think it's passed 500M is wild 🤯. 46,000 YT comments later, this video has touched so many. I even receive emails from folks across the country...moms, dads, their children...they thank me & our crew for making something so relatable. As a reminder of this sweet experience, I framed a newspaper article that the @bozchron wrote about our project. It always brings me joy knowing we birthed this into the world. I will always be so, so proud of this video ❤️

BTS: Chapter 3 ✍️📓

For our second day of filming, we broke the schedule into two parts: 1) filming in our aunt and uncle's lovely clothing store @manhattandenim followed by 2) picture car and b-roll in Playa Del Rey. Company moves galore 🙃 Not to mention... a legendary cameo by Norman Greenbaum who flew in just for our clothing scene ✈️

All that being said...the day was a blast and documented beautifully by the great @bensbackdrop . The last sunset photo is my FAV 🤌📸

Stay tuned. More coming your way... 👀

BTS: Chapter 3 ✍️📓

For our second day of filming, we broke the schedule into two parts: 1) filming in our aunt and uncle's lovely clothing store @manhattandenim followed by 2) picture car and b-roll in Playa Del Rey. Company moves galore 🙃 Not to mention... a legendary cameo by Norman Greenbaum who flew in just for our clothing scene ✈️

All that being said...the day was a blast and documented beautifully by the great @bensbackdrop . The last sunset photo is my FAV 🤌📸

Stay tuned. More coming your way... 👀

What was the perfect ride for the perfect song?

We didn't want to copy the classic red convertible in Ferris Bueller. We wanted our own look - American made, something with heart and horsepower. We found it w/ @hollywoodclassiccar - a black on black Ford 1968 Mustang 🏁🤌

Here's a little BTS from our weekend spent with it. God I miss driving that thing to work 😭

"Spirit in the Sky" - out now 📺

BTS: Chapter 2 👬👭

It takes a village...every time. Lots of things have to go right. Prep, collective energy, a lot of cars on the same highway. Maybe that's why these lyrics by The Supremes cracked me up, as I realized how fitting this 🤣 You can't rush the process or the lighting or the set dressing. Just be patient and zero in on quality, every time. Leaning into the zen, present nature, waiting for the right wave...all of that is filmmaking. You just have to plan and be ready for it. I always try to surround myself with A players and kindness. That kind of spirit and attitude and competence all adds up. And if we're creating an environment in which actors can play in and feel comfortable in...that's all that matters when you hit record. All for the shot. All for the story 💯

It takes a village...every time. Lots of things have to go right. Prep, collective energy, a lot of cars on the same highway. Maybe that's why these lyrics by The Supremes cracked me up, as I realized how fitting this 🤣 You can't rush the process or the lighting or the set dressing. Just be patient and zero in on quality, every time. Leaning into the zen, present nature, waiting for the right wave...all of that is filmmaking. You just have to plan and be ready for it. I always try to surround myself with A players and kindness. That kind of spirit and attitude and competence all adds up. And if we're creating an environment in which actors can play in and feel comfortable in...that's all that matters when you hit record. All for the shot. All for the story 💯

BTS: Chapter 1 🎬🎭

For Brady and Samantha's homes, we rented a beautiful house in the Sunset Park neighborhood of Santa Monica. From 8am - 9pm, we filmed over 9 setups in all different rooms, constantly changing lenses, and transforming sets. Hard work, pure joy, and a well-oiled crew who kept the day moving, allowing us to capture some magic...

Making films is WAY more fun than sitting alone w/ some AI text prompt 🤮

View Instagram Stories in Secret

The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
