Ep31: Floating in the Abyss: The Evolution of a Filmmaker in Flux featuring Jasmine Quiñones

She's in Focus

Welcome to another episode of "She's in Focus", a podcast dedicated to inspiring and empowering #femalefilmmakers​​​​​ and #femalevideographers from all walks of life and on every step of their creative journey.

In this episode, Kel sits down again with Jasmine Quiñones (the first ever SIF guest) to see what she has been up to in the past year! Turns out, “it’s just a lot”. This episode is aptly titled as Jasmine details her very raw feelings about this new phase & milestone in her filmmaking career while experiencing some personal life changes.

In this episode they discuss:
- When two worlds collide - passion projects & paid projects
- Why you need more than technical abilities to be irreplaceable in this field
- Not being complacent & constantly chasing your true voice in your art
- Floating in the abyss
- Dealing with a breakup while still having to show up professionally and creatively in the biggest project of your career
- Being emo & balancing life's best and worst moments
- When self-reflection and self-critique turns to self-destruction
- The message & meaning behind Jasmine’s short film: PUSH
- What deviating from being a “safe filmmaker” means & “cutting out all the noise”
- Discovering what truly makes you happy & diving right in
- A discussion on baby steps towards your goal
- Ideation does not equal execution - you have to force yourself to take action
- Where you can find Jasmine online
- Jasmine’s new experience with mentorship and course offerings
- The real deal with Fujifilm & using the right tools for the job
- How you can support Jasmine
