A night with Carol Hovsepian, Founder of La Moog Productions

Carol is the lover of stories who was destined to become a filmmaker and writer. She made her first 8mm film at 8 years old about a day in the life of a tadpole and took off from there. She started as an intern turned Casting Director for Hickmar Productions then worked with the best at most major studios as well as Miramax with the Weinsteins, assisting in overseeing development and production. She’s currently prepping for production of her script, MIDSUMMER MADNESS, a contemporary Shakespeare rom-com.

Carol has also taught screenwriting, video game content and various film classes and workshops at UCLA, USC, UC Riverside, UC Berkeley and ITT Tech as well as the Los Angeles Unified School District where she also helped build a film and video production program for our future filmmakers.

She hasn’t stopped teaching. Her passion for quality, visual and memorable writing continues with her Consulting Services where she has an uncanny ability and perceptive vision that helps writers make their writing the best it can be for a sale or option, whether it be in novel or screenplay format. Perhaps that’s why she’s been hired to rewrite many screenplays and edit novels.

Carol has published magazine articles, poetry and, most recently, the first 2 fully illustrated children’s books in a series, THE POET AND THE PAINTER and THE POET, THE PAINTER and THE ENTOMOLOGIST. Book 3 is in the making and yes, the series is currently in development for a live-action feature.
