We’re looking forward to introducing you to Karmelina Moore. Check out our conversation below.
Karmelina , so good to connect and we’re excited to share your story and insights with our audience. There’s a ton to learn from your story, but let’s start with a warm up before we get into the heart of the interview. What is a normal day like for you right now?
A normal day for me currently is exercising, taking a shower then feeding my dogs. Afterwards I look at my day planner and tackle the most difficult task first. That is usually answering an email or messaging an actor or crew member to fill out their deal memo! There are variations but that is basically the groundwork of a typical day for me.
Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
I am Karmelina Moore, a screenwriter in LA who loves the past and likes to recreate it through the stories I write. Currently, I have my eye on television!
Great, so let’s dive into your journey a bit more. What’s a moment that really shaped how you see the world?
The moment that shaped my view on the world was seeing my first concert at the Irvine Amphitheatre (now demolished). It was a month after I graduated from high school and my brother and I saw Van Halen. This was 2015, and Eddie’s son Wolfie was playing bass.
The emotional response and dedication of the concertgoers showed me that music and media of the past held something very special. Something you don’t get from the 21st century.
I thought to myself, if I could reach into the past and bring the magic to the present, I would be happy and would make others happy as well. That changed everything.
What did suffering teach you that success never could?
Suffering only taught me that I don’t like to suffer.
So a lot of these questions go deep, but if you are open to it, we’ve got a few more questions that we’d love to get your take on. Where are smart people getting it totally wrong today?
What smart people? Just joking, there are a couple here and there, but the internet killed a lot of them. This view of mine reminds me of the Huxley quote I cited in the yearbook senior year, “I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness…”. The madness, just in case you were wondering, is the internet.
Okay, so before we go, let’s tackle one more area. What do you think people will most misunderstand about your legacy?
The intention of my art.
