Movie-making magic

While on a walk, I took a picture of a portion of the production vehicles in this charming Coyoacan neighborhood. Mexico City has SO MUCH production happening at all times. Commercials, television series, and full-length feature films are being made year-round. Not pictured craft services, wardrobe, talent trailers, lighting, y mucho más.

OPTIMISM: 💖

A quote from a Coyoacan legend.

"I am my own muse. I am the subject I know best. The subject I want to know better."

— Frida Kahlo
