Nearly two years ago, my 5-year-old daughter Alessia suggested I make a film about Pet Fashion Designer Anthony Rubio after attending one of his NY Fashion Week shows. With her encouragement, I embarked on a project to share a heartwarming story suitable for the whole family, showcasing an inspiring artist who expresses his love for animals through fashion design. Yesterday, we filmed the opening scene of the movie at Tig & Peach in Pelham, NY. @tigandpeach 💕🍑
Anthony and Kimba visited a group of enthusiastic children, eager to hear about Anthony’s journey and meet Kimba, who was ready for the runway. The experience was both magical and educational. Anthony even read a story from Linda Butler-White’s children’s book “Lala and Darla, Supermodel Dogs: Pups with Pizzazz”, in which he makes a cameo appearance. @bogieandkimba @darlaandlalapom 🐾
As a special treat, each child received a signed copy of Anthony’s new coffee table book featuring beautiful photos of his famous canine models. We are thrilled to share this film with the world soon! Many thanks to Tig & Peach for their wonderful collaboration—we had a blast! 🙏🎥 @anthonyrubio01
Very proud of my brother, John @lpzmedia, for airing his episode this evening at 9pm on @vicetv. I am so excited to check this out finally! Love the Bad Boys @detroitpistons 🏀🥊
“UNINTERRUPTED: The Real Stories of Basketball” airs Tuesday, 9P ET on VICE TV.

Here are a few more photos taken by LIIFE photographer Ed Shin. @shinbonephotography
This film was a true labor of love amongst friends who wanted to tell a story about love, loss, and redemption, set on the south shore of Long Island. We hope to expand it into a feature film someday soon!
Special thanks to: Glenn and Mary Rufrano for their support, The Huntington Arts Council for the NYSCA Microgrant, The Legal Film Clinic at Cardozo Law School, and Aubin Pictures for their continued encouragement and guidance. @huntingtonarts @cardozo_law @aubinpictures @nyscouncilonthearts

Posted @withregram • @squirtstouchdown_ 🏈📚 Welcome, everyone! I’m Lisa Goodson (@girlzdreamtoo )and I’m thrilled to announce that my new book, Squirt’s Touchdown, is coming soon to stores! 🎉
Dive into the world of Squirt, a 14-year-old football dynamo from the Rochdale neighborhood in Queens, NY, who’s all about speed, vision, and the thrill of a TOUCHDOWN!! 🏈🏈
Tension between Squirt and his younger brother Omar, the “illest lyricist,” begins brewing over Squirt’s dream girl. Life for young Squirt feels like something far from a victory. As Squirt tries to dodge the “tackles of life,” he begins to question, “Is winning everything?” 🌟
Can’t wait for you all to experience Squirt’s journey on and off the field!

🌟✨ The Power of The Pet Gala, Unleashed! ✨🌟
We’re thrilled to share the global fanfare our latest project, The Pet Gala Documentary, has received!
Just two weeks after the star-studded Met Gala, our glamorous dog models trotted down the red carpet in Met Gala-inspired outfits for an epic charity event at the AKC Museum of the Dog in NYC that bridged the worlds of fashion and pet advocacy.
We were there to capture it all for a feature-length documentary. Directed by award-winning filmmaker Kevin Lopez and beautifully shot by Oscar shortlisted cinematographer Derek Mindler, the film goes behind the scenes of pet couturier Anthony Rubio’s love of animals and high-style creations for his four-legged clients.
The positive press is STILL buzzing worldwide—proof that there’s a huge audience eager for stories that highlight the good in the world.
Thank you to all who’ve believed in this filmmaking journey. Stay tuned for updates and feel free to connect if you are interested in supporting The Pet Gala Documentary—a movie that celebrates the love we share with our furry friends. 🐾🎥
🎬🐾 THAT’S A WRAP!! ⭐️
A heartfelt thank you to Anthony and Rob for allowing me and my team the incredible opportunity to film Anthony’s journey over the past year. Our adventure culminated in yesterday’s historic event at The AKC Museum of the Dog—the very first Canine Couture: Exhibition Opening Reception.
Following the phenomenal success of the 2024 Pet Gala, we captured the beautiful gallery opening for our documentary, “Canine Couture: An Exhibition of Anthony Rubio Designs.” It was an honor to explore this retrospective alongside the designer himself, marking the beginning of this delightful pop-up exhibition. We caught up with Anthony before doors opened where he walked us through some of the gorgeous designs that were in display.
A special shout-out to our fantastic pet moms and their glamorous dog models who truly dressed to impress, echoing the stunning designs on display. It was a wonderful conclusion to our journey, filled with fashion, flair, and furry friends. 🌟🐕

🎥✨ Behind the scenes at the AKC Museum of the Dog! We’re thrilled to share some exclusive clips from our recent shoot for “The Pet Gala Documentary.” A huge shout-out to our intern, Sekou Cherif, for capturing these candid moments with our incredible camera team led by the talented Derek Mindler. @petgaladoc 🐶🐾
🐾📸 Our producers were on their toes, ensuring everything ran smoothly with our production amidst the flurry of activity. From the well-being of the dog models to capturing the intimate moments with Anthony before the now famous Pet Gala Red Carpet, our camera team managed it all superbly.
This film, highlighting Anthony Rubio’s glamorous creations and his furry friends, aims to raise awareness and support for pet rescues and animal rights. After more than a year of filming, we’re nearing the production finish line and couldn’t be prouder of what we’ve accomplished. Stay tuned for more pup-tastic updates!
