miixxy the digipixi - behold the lurid cuteness

About Me

Here is some of my work below as a Director, Editor and Animator:
Mike Gravel for President Spot (Director/Editor)
Andrea Grant - Rings I Have Worn (Director/Editor)
Andrea Grant - Messiah Complex (Director/Editor)
Bruce George EPK (Director/Editor)
Brother Earl EPK (Director/Editor)
DJ Seth Gold Music Video (Director/DP/Editor)
Current Promo Piece (Director/Editor)
I am a filmmaker, editor, video artist, DP, VJ, photographer, writer, singer, actor, and basically, a digital video goddess...WORSHIP ME! hahahaha...i create erotic art, ( feralsexkitten.com ), video art ( miixxy.com ), and the rest of my work in film and photography is at multo.com . I love working with musicians and dancers. one of my goals is to create a fantastical film combining downtown performers, sexy singers, burlesque stars, obscene amounts of glitter, sequins, skin and laughter, and my lush visual eye. think eye candy/sex candy/mind candy.
I'm also very active in creating art and films about social justice. We live in an age where the masculine is over-emphasized, even by women, and the feminine principles of co-operation, harmony and creativity are slowly being strangled by apathy and censorship. Rise up, now is the time to start the fight, make the revolution occur in your own soul, and watch it ripple out like rings on water, effecting change to the receptive around you. Poverty, oppression, hate, fear, intimidation, war, rape, lust for things unhealthy - this is our world right now. We can wallow in the despair of it all or we can summon the hero's journey within and start with a single step, a single conversation, a single action.

My Interests

film, video, digital photography, VJ, DJ, art, editors, artists, painting, reading, trouble making, travel, social justice...adoring all things subversive...
~~~

I'd like to meet:



filmmakers, editors, artists, VJs, DPs, photographers, and other demi-gods of the digital pantheon...anyone needing a music video or photography...subjects for FSK...people who want to do The Dirty Dozen...

those involved in social justice - Palestine, Darfur, Somalia, Haiti, the condition of the poor and the female worldwide (and why the two are nearly always linked). Those unafraid to speak up, take action, be counted and heard, instead of part of the herd. Those ready to go, ready to fight, ready to make the changes, not just talk about them. Who needs another weed smoke filled BS/bitch session with no outcome? Believe, people. Then do.

Those interested in checking out my new project SheStory.tv ,an online magazine featuring video podcasts, photo essays and articles about women and men manifesting magnificence.

I'm really not interested in being contacted, unless you are a creative professional.

Television:

Current TV, HBO/SHOWTIME, Law & Order, ADULT SWIM, Chapelle's Show, Drawn Together, South Park, CNN, the History Channel.
