This is where thoughts become things.

Hi, I'm Daniela. Welcome to my personal lair on the Internet. This is where I write about storytelling, activism, technology and pop culture. Sometimes I post videos. I update my lair when the mood strikes me. Follow me on Twitter for daily updates (@dcap).

Daniela Capistrano at All Points West '08

Since 2005, I have been a writer, multiplatform producer, shooter and editor. I have freelanced for several networks, including Bravo, Discovery and A&E.

While working at MTV News from 2006 – 2009, I interviewed Janelle Monae, The Dodos, Dragons of Zynth, Afrika Bambaataa, Ebony Bones, Ra Ra Riot, Broken Social Scene, Noisettes, writer/producer Jonathan Ames, Trace Magazine founder Claude Grunitzky, “Afro-Punk” director James Spooner and other inspiring folks.

After three years of sharing mind blowing experiences with an amazing team, I decided to form my own LLC to consult with a variety of companies and focus on my own creative goals.

I still enjoy blogging, podcasting and all forms of digital production (both for fun and for my employers). I am an early adopter, adept at incorporating social media tools into my home and work environment.

For some writing samples, visit my MTV News clips or my work as managing editor for MTVTr3s.com.
