At Falco Creative Media, our team is our strength. Today, we’re excited to spotlight Molly, who has been an invaluable part of our journey. We sat down with her to learn more about her experience with FCM and what makes her tick. Here’s what she shared:
Q: Molly, how did you first perceive Katie’s work before joining FCM?
Molly: I knew Katie for four years before we started working together. I saw her come and go on shoots, working late nights. I thought she was doing a lot of videos, but I didn’t fully grasp all the work that went into it or how long shoots/editing could take.
Q: Was joining the business different than what you expected?
Molly: Not really! Katie had talked about the video marketing industry with me, so I felt prepared for what I was getting into.
Q: What’s it like being on a shoot with Katie?
Molly: Katie maintains her composure and professionalism incredibly well. She’s always accommodating to clients and manages to keep a positive attitude, balancing her personal life with work really well!
Q: What are your thoughts on Katie’s passion for her work?
Molly: Her passion for videography is evident! She excels in a male-dominated industry, and it’s inspiring to see her hold her own while doing what she loves.
Q: How do you see Katie as a mom?
Molly: Katie’s a dedicated mom to four kids, and I think of FCM as another child for her. She started it on her own and juggles everything really well, ensuring her kids are always top priority and in the best hands.
Q: When you first started, were you nervous on video shoots?
Molly: Not at all! I’m a very social person, but there was definitely a lot of information to absorb during those first video shoots.
Q: What’s your favorite part of working at FCM?
Molly: The flexibility! With college being so demanding, having a reliable schedule with Katie helps me balance everything. It’s a great job for college students!
Q: Do you have a favorite shoot experience?
Molly: Yes! My favorite video shoot was “Only In: Des Moines” in October 2023. We worked with a food company and got to try Southeast Asian cuisine, which is my favorite! Working with unique food businesses always excites me—it’s a cultural experience!
Q: How has your job at FCM helped you grow?
Molly: My communication skills have really improved. I’ve always been confident, but working on video shoots has broadened the range of people I interact with and learn from.
Q: What are you looking forward to?
Molly: I’m really looking forward to the upcoming conference shoot in Chicago with Katie!
Q: What has been your favorite administrative project?
Molly: I love the giveaway baskets and client gifts! Gift-giving is one of my passions, and I enjoy taking the initiative on those creative projects.
Q: What do you like to do in your free time?
Molly: I live on a hobby farm, so I spend a lot of time around animals. I also have a wiener dog!
Q: What’s your favorite fall activity?
Molly: Going to pumpkin patches is my favorite! I love everything pumpkin spice!
