Now You Know
Mindful Media Studios
Origin Story
Being waitlisted by NASA in 1969 was actually a great career boost; Apollo 13 had been my first choice and I didn’t have a safety. The rejection also took the pressure off deciding who could play me in the movie. So now I’m just glad to be here and am grateful that Kevin Bacon was there with the duct tape. Six degrees + zero gravity = infinite possibilities. Since then, the waitlist became virtually weightless as I launched my own career. Now I am on a mission for truth, justice and the American way. Short of that, I’m happy with a cup of coffee, good company and an extra helping of Kevin Bacon.
We like good company. From startups to more fortunate ones, we’ve created magic for Apple, IBM, GE, Scholastic and The College Board. We’ve raised funds and awareness for Catholic nuns and other social media. We’ve worked with Nobel Laureates, rocket scientists and classroom teachers to help students get a decent ROI. Collectively, we are a gang of free-range thinkers, writers, designers, illustrators and animators who create ethically sourced, authentic and informed content in all formats for all life forms.

Our Mindful Media Milliner
The roles of chief milliner and multi-hat wearer at Mindful Media Studios rest on the head and in the mind of Trish Cleary Dardine. Trish, who’s writing this in the third person, creates compelling content that engages and informs. From whimsical animations to technical documentation, and from promotional copy to classy taxonomy, Trish is a muse for all media. As a NASA reject, that’s about the best she can do.
Trish maintains a personal blog, http://www.finetoons.com where nothing is personal.
