040 - Nicholas Muthersbaugh

This episode's guest is Nicholas Muthersbaugh. Together we made a short film called Alora where Nick served as the co-writer, co-producer, and the director. Nick, in two years, he's garnered over 10 top awards, including being a 3x Emmy winner for his work in local media. "Alora" is his second short film, the first of which is Look Feel Touch Adore, a thriller that can be found on IndieFlix.com, and Vimeo. Alora has been selected into the 2019 Denton Black Film Festival and is currently up for 2 awards: Best Short and Best Texas Short. The story is about a single mother who is training as a NASA astronaut to potentially go and visit a new planet that has been discovered that is within the Goldilocks Zone of a star. The conflict arises in that she has to make a choice to going on the mission of a lifetime versus the love of her daughter that she would have to leave behind. The film stars 3 incredible women we were blessed to work with: Maddy Lea, Lauren Brizendine, and Nicole Fancher! It's an amazing story about love, choices, female empowerment... I could go on and on. I hope you can come check it out. The world premiere is on Saturday, January 26, 2019 at 6:15 p.m. at the Campus Theater in Denton, Texas.
