Genie has extensive first-hand experience in movies, streaming, TV, novels (thrillers, Sci-Fi-Fantasy, YA etc.), audiobooks, children’s multimedia, music projects/music videos, documentaries, corporate/industrial productions, podcasts, video projects, indie and short films, even theater/stage plays! Fifteen years sizzling in Las Vegas NV assisting 8,000+ worldwide projects (no kidding) dealing with celebrities & stars (the-good-the bad-and-the-ugly), including “Hollyweird/La-La-Land Strange” projects. In Florida, Genie assisted approximately 3,000 and more… "I definitely have an insider’s perspective.”

Genie is also an award-winning writer, producer, and creative director for 300 of her own clients’ projects. Add in recently her narration and production of nearly 20 audiobook clients, she is a “Genie of Omnimedia.”

Add being a professional actress/performer for camera/stage/live productions, and an improvisational and standup comedienne, a singer/lyricist/songwriter, and currently a screenwriter for spec TV series and movies under consideration with Lifetime and other networks and mini-majors...
And a bit more credits: Genie is on-screen, podcast/online, on-radio and live interview and talk show host (and often an interviewee as well), a spokesperson for both government and private-sector entities, and an MC/moderator and event presenter/speaker.

Somewhat “last but not least” - in and around all of the above and other miscellaneous creativity - she has been a Master Certified Film Commissioner through the global Association of Film Commissioners International for 20+ years, serving the State of Nevada film commission in its Las Vegas headquarters, and Sarasota County in Florida (the founding director of their Film & Entertainment Office).

JUST A FEW EXAMPLES OF SPECIALLY-TAILORED ENRICHMENT PRESENTATIONS SPECIFIC TO A CRUISE'S THEME/PATH OF TRAVEL ETC., all with the flavors of curiosity, warmth and humor, unusual perspectives and angles that are fresh and enjoyable --

SHEDDING LIGHT ON THE NORTHERN LIGHTS AND MORE!
1. As the subject of many movies, TV programs and documentaries, there are numerous points of view about the Northern Lights, from mystical and magical to documentary insights about the science and history -- this presentation gives an entertaining "look and listen" into a world of creativity about the Northern Lights...a/k/a the Aurora Borealis!

VIKINGS AND ENTERTAINMENT INFLUENCED BY THE NORTHERN LIGHTS...
2. From animated films to serious drama, romance to history and beyond, the Vikings and the Northern Lights influence the subject matter of many diverse movies and films -- enjoyable and often surprising overview!

THE "TRUTH" OF CINEMA AND NORWAY
3. If art is the mirror of the society, then what sort of truth do movies infuse or distort? Looking at films and other "entertainment" set in Norway or about Norway gives an interesting -- and perhaps eye-opening -- insight into its present day as well as past and pop culture.

MEDITERRANEAN TREASURES - LITERAL AND VIRTUAL:
(i) "Mediterranean Treasures" cruise, entertaining and surprising information shared in presentations about treasure hunters contrasted to archeologists, present day and in eras long past, including the "fame and fortune" effect versus the contribution to preserving antiquities for the edification of all generations in the present and future.
(ii) "Antiquities" or "Sports" or "Arts" themed cruises, in fun and comfortable conversational mode -- revealing and commenting upon discovered finds showing/proving many aspects of "entertainment" to be parts of diverse ancient and past cultures through to present day, all thought-provoking and eye-opening!
(iii) “C’est Délicieux!" A lush and mouth-watering presentation about cuisine and beverages / exceptional and unique dining / extraordinary chefs, etc. across different countries en route, a delicious discussion about music, theater, movies and television that integrate those subjects in their stories, and impressive, unusual, unforgettable people of these countries and communities whose lives made a mark in those areas.
(iv) "Remarkable & Memorable People..." For cruises touching numerous countries, numerous presentations about the lives of memorable or even little-known but remarkable people from many walks of life that were from those areas -- from the famous to the infamous to the obscure!

A FEW OF MY ENRICHMENT TOPICS GEARED TO "SHOW BUSINESS," MULTIMEDIA ENTERTAINMENT, CELEBRITIES AND STARS, FILMMAKING FROM INDIES TO BLOCKBUSTERS, THE RAPID-FIRE PARADIGM SHIFTS IN FORMATS AND GENRES AND PLATFORMS FROM RADIO AND STAGE, TO TV TO CABLE TO STREAMING, THE MEDIA "WHEEL" TO SPIN TODAY INCLUDING BINGE-WATCHING, E-BOOKS-INTO-MOVIES, AND SO MUCH MORE:

1. CELEBRITIES: THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY - PEOPLE, PLACES AND THINGS - ALWAYS "fun and unique" and VERY MUCH "BEHIND THE SCENES"
After 23 years of being a FILM COMMISSIONER and serving the needs of more than 8,000 projects from around the world that have shot on location from coast to coast across this country, believe me, I’ve juggled the projects and personalities of the elegant and endearing, the crazies and the creatives -- the lunatics and the lovelies of LA-LA-Land, Hollywood, Vegas, Broadway and beyond. I've assisted and been on-set for movies and streaming and television programs being shot on location, have one-on-one scouted with star actors, producers, and directors. I’ve helped stars including Sandra Bullock, Sir Anthony Hopkins, James Gandolfini, Steven Soderbergh, Danny DeVito, Penny Marshall, and many others -- and rubbed elbows personally with major stars during set visits and in private settings and at exclusive film events including Mel Gibson, Gerard Butler, Jason Momoa, Paul McCartney, Sylvester Stallone, Matt Damon, Bruce Willis, George Clooney, Julia Roberts, Brad Pitt, Keanu Reeves, Sean Connery, David Cassidy, Smokey Robinson, Joe Pesci, Sharon Stone, Jackie Chan, Chris Rock, Kurt Russell, Kevin Costner, David Arquette, Courtney Cox, The Righteous Brothers, Jerry Lee Lewis, Susan Anton, Stanley Tucci, Steve Buscemi, Charlize Theron, Cindy Crawford, Ed Asner, Danny Glover, Henry Winkler, and more.

2. BEHIND THE ACADEMY AWARDS AND OTHER AWARDS
Why DON’T the movies or TV shows or music etc. that you like most win? Geez, sometimes it just is baffling, isn’t it? Well, let me share some insider information and open your eyes to the real reasons behind the judging, voting, scoring, as well as goofy or infuriating reasons and factors that really have nothing to do with the “award” categories! This can also be “destination” oriented as almost every nation and many major regions within them furiously PURSUE getting movies and TV series and other entertainment to COME TO THEIR LOCALES and make those award-winning, big-bucks-spending productions. International productions in particular are always aggressively trying to claim a bigger and bigger stake of the billions of dollars in revenues generated by those entertainment industries. And the AWARD impact can skyrocket success to all sorts of “overflow” beneficiaries -- from new businesses to keeping the best and brightest talent from leaving home to find success elsewhere… You’d be surprised.

3. YOU TALKIN' TO ME? ACTING AND PERFORMING AND GETTING PAID -- OR JUST FOR FUN!
I CAN TELL YOU how to pry your way in there as a "working professional" earning a living -- or just as a hobbyist having fun and growing your talent. My mother shoved me out on the stage at 3 years old, and I’ve been an actor ever since (even while moving up the live theater ranks from community (amateur) theaters to major performing arts centers with several thousand in the audience; from the ranks of extra and day player in the background of TV commercials, short films, etc., to hosting and "starring" in content and productions, to moving beyond the footlights and behind the cameras to become a writer, producer, creative director, film commissioner...) From catalogs to commercials to made-for-TV drama and comedy, indie films, short and student films, to video instructional and infomercials, talk shows, game shows, entertainment programs, and more - I've done all of that plus, casting (I’ve auditioned and chosen the actors who would be hired) to creating – concept to completion - more than 300 projects for paying clients and owning my own children’s multimedia company with programming on 48 stations around the country, I’m ready to share how to get there!

4. UNLEASHING YOUR CREATIVE JUGGERNAUT
WHAT is that amazing creature hiding inside your brain (and heart) somewhere, poised to surprise you once you’ve given it a chance to escape captivity. Yes, we’ve all got an aptitude of some sort, but too often it isn’t fully set free or, worse yet, even discovered. What’s yours? Are you full of words or technology-obsessed, or always doodling, admiring artworks or sculptures, or set free when you putter in the yard or garden, or singing or humming along with songs and music you find irresistible, or tapping your feet and dancing around the house when no one’s watching, or fascinated by architecture or entranced by schematics, or relishing experimenting with food inside or outside of recipes, or taking apart things that don’t work or seem right and tweaking them back to functioning - from a car to a curling iron, from arranging drawers and furniture to “fit” everything better, etc., etc. etc.? THAT’S part of your creative creature, and maybe you need to help it break loose and run free…? I’d love you to find out and I’m here to share some insights into how you might do just that.

5. LET THE WORLD ENTERTAIN YOU! IT CAN BE DONE!
How do YOU pick what to watch when you're now bombarded with THOUSANDS of choices, HUNDREDS of channels etc. -- there are tricks to finding the best of the best! There are ways to avoid endless "surfing" hoping to tumble across some entertainment... and IT'S OKAY TO BINGE... don't let anyone tell you it's not! BETWEEN STREAMING, TV, CABLE, FILM, PODCASTING AND RADIO, we’re now drinking from the fire hose… Streaming has revolutionized how people watch series programming (think GAME OF THRONES, for example) to full-length individual acclaimed movies (many now made specifically for streaming, like THE IRISHMAN and THE POWER OF THE DOG, among many other acclaimed and award-winning films). TV used to be the ugly duckling next to the swan that was film, but the lines are now blurred... Radio -- the kissing cousin viewers left behind on the farm when they headed to the bright lights of the big city of TV -- seems to have metamorphosized into its powerful PODCASTING superhero self... Tame that ferocious beast of too-many-choices and really find what you like and want, when you want it!

6. THE MUSE IS NOT AMUSED: SIT DOWN AND DO THE WORK!
OK, all you want-to-be WRITERS out there. You know who you are: Yes, you CAN be the writer you dream of being, There’s never been more freedom to create your work and get it SEEN, read, sold, etc. BUT FIRST you have to create it… whatever genre you want to write -- from novels to poetry, fact to fiction, history to histrionics... from your personal life story to epic fantasy or sci-fi… from a movie screenplay to a television/streaming series or miniseries, from children’s content to holiday happy endings in all sorts of mediums… From how-to-books to motivational works to biographies to manuals and cookbooks… There’s never been a better time than now, and you’ve never had more ways to find your muse and let it flow through you into the written word. You probably just need a roadmap, or perhaps a treasure map, to find your muse and lay out a plan and then do it, to get your dream written. I can help. I’ve written and sold screenplays, novels, children’s books, TV scripts and literally hundreds of projects for paying clients.

7. REACH A GLOBAL AUDIENCE -- VERY AFFORDABLY, IF NOT FREE!
Over generations, the phrase “self-published” has transformed from an insult and a very expensive process, into to a true innovation that costs little or nothing to put out there into the world! Get your book written and Stake your Claim and attract your audience thanks to the democratization of "SELF-PUBLISHING" with -- believe it or not-- free tools and help and the power of AMAZON BEHIND YOU.... In just the past 15 months or so, I’ve helped almost 20 authors AND myself with my own content, to take advantage of these amazing new opportunities. From creating a paperback or a hardback or creating an e-Book and moving on up to an audiobook, you CAN do it and Amazon will help AND be your publisher and sales agent and marketing platform, yadda yadda yadda. What are you waiting for? Here’s the conversation you’ve been wanting to have, and time to get busy and get excited and get your work OUT THERE to be seen, read, bought…

8. YIKES! IS RUDE & OBNOXIOUS BEHAVIOR BURNING DOWN CIVILIZATION AS WE KNOW IT -- IS IT BEING SET AFLAME BY MEDIA/ENTERTAINMENT? WHERE DID MANNERS AND GRACIOUSNESS GO AND CAN OUR CHILDREN, GRANDCHILDREN AND FUTURE GENERATIONS EVER RECAPTURE ELEGANCE, GENTILITY/CLASS AND CULTURAL CIVILITY?
Have you been a bit bewildered by the language and/or rudeness of people of all ages lately (even middle school/young teens)? Have you wondered what the HECK has happened to vocabulary, civility, manners, kindness, consideration, etc.? When you’re in line and a 12-year-old is dropping curse words in front of their parents like breadcrumbs for the birds, isn’t THAT really “for the birds”? If you remember the days of gracious behavior that put people at ease and made them feel welcome...special...appreciated...respected...Do you think movies, TV, video games, the internet, etc. are to blame?!? Let’s have a conversation!

A Global Film Commissioner + Public Speaker to dozens of audiences, working with more than 8,000 film, streaming, video, tv/cable, music, stage/theater, new media (online, radio, podcasts etc.) projects + an AWARD-WINNING writer/producer/creative director in the private sector across MANY GENRES.
