Independent film, writing, humor, music, travel, Italian wine, continually improving our art forms, inspiring the creativity in others, and allowing others to inspire us.
Please enjoy our slideshow "The MP Story":
We'd like to meet filmmakers who have the desire to bring unique short or feature films to audiences that crave something different. Momentum Productions provides you with a compelling script AND a soundtrack that breathes life into the story.
The independent film industry is making tremendous strides as it enlightens audiences throughout the world with movies that people don't just watch...that they can FEEL. Our mission is to partner with others who share this passion.
We enjoy all types of music depending on our mood. We like soothing, ambient songs when we're feeling stressed and conversely crave the energy of progressive rock when we're in the mood to celebrate. Fede's influences range from classical to YES and Emerson Lake & Palmer.
We both adore comedies, especially Monty Python films! We also are intrigued by science fiction. Fede enjoys horror movies, but Shelly stopped watching them when the special effects became TOO realistic. She's more of a "ketchup packet squirting to simulate flesh wounds" kind of person.
But Fede challenged Shelly to write something in the horror genre. The screenwriter immediately began creating, becoming so obsessed that she's already written several haunting tales. The composer immediately became obsessed by the scripts and began writing thrilling music...
Proof of BOTH artists' belief that they were "born to do the movies".
Shelly's inspiration for her humor comes from vintage Saturday Night Live and Monty Python's Flying Circus. In addition to reading samples of her sketch comedy scripts on this profile's blogs, visit Shelly Ryan Comedy for more info and to listen to audio clips of her unique comedy stylings.
We enjoy books and other resources that help us grow and evolve as artists.
Ordinary people behind the scenes...the ones who work very hard but don't necessarily get the recognition they deserve. Anyone who puts their entire heart and soul into everything they create. People who aren't afraid to take risks to follow their dreams.
