Film industry: expectations vs reality
Tap-tap like❤️
I consider cinema to be the most romanticized industry in the world. We see only a beautiful picture, and ordinary people can’t even imagine what’s going on in reality. So I had a lot of expectations and stupid hopes. And here are the stupidest and the most naive:
1. Actors. We see these people as some cool characters and unconsciously fall in love with them. But they are often very closed-minded people who ignore everyone. The actors are accustomed to get great attention and don’t always realize that they are just ordinary people. That’s why they allow themselves too much, expecting them to just get away with it.
2. Not the actors make the most money on movies, but producers. Producers receive from 5 to 50% of the film’s sales. The film’s sales bring tens and hundreds of millions of dollars. Actors earn much less. But few people talk about it, because the producers don’t disclose their salaries.
⠀
3. The main characters are given not to those who are the most talented, but to those who sell the film well. For example, there are two candidates. One is a super brilliant but not famous young actor. The second is a worse actor, but he has 10 million followers. Guess who they’ll choose?
4. It’s fun. Even if some super scary movie is being filmed, all the actors hang out and have fun behind the camera. Plus, every day something new and cool happens on the film sets.
5. Filming takes a LOT of time. Even 30 seconds can be filmed during the whole day. Plus, often actors have to just wait for a lot of time. For example, you will shoot for one or two hours during a 12-hour shift. And then you just wait for other scenes and close-ups of the actors to be shot, and so on.

Well, do you still think filming is so easy and funny? Los Angeles, California

April 11th marks the beginning of my international growth story as a blogger, producer and actor. I’ve started thinking about translating the blog about two years ago, but I was ashamed of speaking English, my accent, and mistakes. And now I see clearly: there is no reason to postpone it.
– I have a super-successful business in the US.
– I work with fuckingly cool clients.
– I make a lot of money even by US standards.
– People from all over the world follow my blog.
And if my “shitty” knowledge of the language lets me work and have a cool life in the US, then I can manage my blog in English!
What will you find on my blog?
– A huge amount of insider information about the cinema world. There are so many understatements and secrets around this industry that someone needs to reveal the truth. And I will be this person.
– Business and a lot of money. I was born in a poor family and I believe that I have achieved just huge financial success. That’s the reason why I want to share with you all tricks and tips.
By the way, I really like to write long posts, and it is the main feature of my blog. Therefore, my international followers, I wanna ask you. What would you like to know about my account? Ask whatever you want👇 Los Angeles, California

Coachella: expectation vs reality
Tap-tap like ❤️
This year I went to Coachella for the second time. People who don’t know what to expect must be the most disappointed ones by the festival. I share my experience.
1. Coachella is about discomfort.
The sun is scorching from all sides, dust gets into your face, it’s hard to breathe. And hanging out for 12 hours for three days in a row is just physically hard. Think about everything in advance so that you feel comfortable, and be sure to take sweaters with you.
2. Coachella is expensive
For example, a taxi from Palm Springs to Coachella costs $50-200. Hotels cost tenfold, and a normal hotel will cost $700-800 per day. You definitely shouldn’t expect that it will be a cool and inexpensive festival experience.
3. Coachella is not about fun, but about blogging and showing off
At some point, the festival turned from a musical one into a show of outfits, dresses and creating content. Compared to other festivals, the atmosphere here is more smug and formal. And that’s why there is less vibe.
Mistakes I’ve made this year. Don’t repeat after me:
– don’t buy a VIP ticket, it’s not worth it;
– fly directly to Palm Springs airport, and not to Los Angeles, so as not to lose one day;
– book all hotels in advance;
– dress comfortably to enjoy the music, not thinking that it’s cold/hot/too tight, etc.

What I’ve realized on the billionaire’s private island
Tap-tap like ❤️
Every time I go through any training, I try not only to get information, but also immediately apply it in my life. Now I’ll share with you what I have learned from the lectures on Richard Branson’s island and what I will apply in my life.
1. I’ll switch to organic food
I was terribly scared of GMO foods, so I decided to make at least 50% of my meals organic. I will ask the chef to buy organic food and go to farmers’ markets myself.
2. I’ll continue to refuse single use plastic
I have a very tough relationship with the environment. I act just like “I do what I can and what is comfortable for me.” But now on Fridays I will have a day without plastic. I will challenge myself and will share how it goes with you in stories.
3. I’ll carry a notebook with me to write down ideas
Richard always carries a notepad or notebook, and I usually write my thoughts on the phone. But in the flow of notes, all ideas get lost because I never reread them. So, I’ll try to start a paper version of the diary.
4. I’ll take time for myself in the morning
When Richard wakes up, the first thing he does is eat a delicious and healthy breakfast, go in for sports, and only then he gets to work. I have it the other way around. At first I work, and after it I do my personal stuff in the evening. So I’ll try Richard’s system.
Leave in the comments which point you’ll apply in your life. For me, the most relevant points now are the first and fourth one 👌 Necker Island

Are you an immigrant? You can and YOU WILL BE SUCCESSFUL
⠀
Tap-tap like❤️
⠀
People I meet in my life and at events are 30%+ immigrants. A lot of them are extremely successful first-generation immigrants – not outsiders, as many people think.
⠀
And that is so just because immigrants have something that people born in this or that country simply don’t have.
⠀
1. You are “hungry”
⠀
You haven’t seen much, you haven’t had and tried much, and you are eager to live life to the fullest. For example, until the age of 21, I had never flown on a plane. And now my goal is to work so fucking hard that I can fly at least every day. Immigrants have to create opportunities themselves to try what other people have already had since their childhood.
⠀
2. You have nothing to lose
⠀
You’ve been in really shitty situations before, then what to lose? Why should I be afraid of losing money if I was already living on just $300 a month? Unlike the locals I’m not afraid to take risks. Because if I have to, I can build a career again from scratch.
⠀
3. You are tougher
⠀
You learned the language, figured out the bureaucracy in a new country, and worked in a non-native language. And you work much more than the locals do to stay afloat. You adapt and become stronger.
⠀
⠀
Do you still think that it is unrealistic to become successful in a new country or do you see opportunities? Necker Island

So what are the further plans for the movie business?
⠀
Tap-tap like ❤️
⠀
Yesterday I finished acting in the movie “Russian Roulette”, but I continue to take an active part in the project as a producer. Plus I have promotion tasks.
⠀
I can already surely say that this project completely changed my life and my idea of what I actually want to do.
⠀
I used to perceive movies as kind of a side hustle, like some additional activity, but now I want to make the movie business one of my main activities.
⠀
What plans do I have for the future?
⠀
1. To invest most of my income into movies. I want to invest into 2-3 projects a year.
⠀
2. To actively develop in acting. During the process of filming, I realized that I can act and that I can act not worse than actors who have been professionally trained. I am going to develop in this direction. After arrival back to NYC I’ll audition more often
⠀
3. To become a certified film producer. Now I don’t catch 100 % of information other producers are talking about. I already know and feel that I am taken less seriously than other producers. The reason is not yet clear: it may be my age, gender, or the fact that I am just a beginner. But I want to be on equal ground with them, so I will continue to study in this niche.
⠀
That’s why I am really grateful to the project for revealing my new side and allowing me to find opportunities for further development in the movie business.
⠀
What does cinema give me as it is?
⠀
First, money. When you invest in movies, you usually receive a cool percentage. If you launch a successful project, then you’ll get very, very big money.
⠀
Secondly, meeting incredible and fuckingly cool actors. I used to watch them on TV, and now we are filming in the same projects.
⠀
Thirdly, recognition. I am attracting a new audience and more people know about me as a producer and actress.
⠀
Yeah, the goals are fuckingly huge, so we make our best. By the way, are you already waiting for the movie?
