Episode 60

Travis Lupher's passion has always been making movies. He directed, shot and cut the 48 hour film "Time Changes Everything." He followed that up by directing, editing and shooting the film "Dead Vengeance" in 2011. That film would go on to win "Best Editing", "Best Cinematography" and "Best sound design" in the 48 Hour Film Festival. In between those two films Travis had the experience of working on a campaign of Doritos commercials that would really introduce him to just what can be done when you have the right team in place. That is why he created his own company, LA Motion Pix. To establish a team of people that could take movie making to the next level.

Episode 19

Born and raised in Denver, CO, Sonia has thrived in creative environments as far back as she can remember.  She appreciates dogs, drag queens, and pizza. Her art explores the design of social identity, cultivating a body of work that dissects the archetypes dictating how we see each other as individuals. She enjoys questioning the way physical attributes account for perceptions of identity and the effect concealing them has on the curiosity of others. Absurdity and irony often play a role in her work while utilizing a cinematic aesthetic to emphasize the contrived nature of the environments she captures in her imagery. In 2012 she received her BFA in Photography and Art History from Metropolitan State University of Denver. Though the focus of her degree was photography, she also likes experimenting with several different mediums at once such as collage, painting, sewing, and knitting—deliberately challenging the divide between fine art and crafting.
