THE HILL trailer from Lisa Molomot on Vimeo.
Filmaker Lisa Molomot |
"I was first introduced to great cinema when my babysitter let me watch Rosemary’s Baby at much too young an age. But it wasn’t until I discovered film studies in college that my love of studying cinema truly began. I graduated from Hamilton College in 1993 and then studied experimental filmmaking and photography at the San Francisco Art Institute before moving to Los Angeles to work as a film editor. I graduated from the American Film Institute in 1998 with an M.F.A. in Film Editing; since graduating I have worked mainly in documentary film as both a director and editor.
I have greatly enjoyed learning about such varied subjects as professional poker players, Mexican Crypto-Jews, female Mariachis, women in the Southern Baptist Ministry, local politicians, burned out physicians, African American church choir singers, theater people, and an eccentric movie theater projectionist. Since 2003, I have also taught film production and documentary film history at Yale University and Wesleyan University."
