Little Walnut Productions, a full-service production company created in 2020 by the musician and activist, Moby, and his creative partner, Lindsay Hicks.[1][2]
Productions & Current Projects
[edit]Little Walnut's inaugural feature documentary, "Moby Doc," was released in May 2021.[3] Its subsequent short animated film, "Why I'm a Vegan," directed by Hicks, was showcased at several film festivals and received recognition at The New York Movie Awards, The Global Independent Film Awards, DOC LA Los Angeles Documentary Film Festival, and The Malibu Film Festival, among others.
In January 2023, Little Walnut released its second documentary feature directed by Moby himself, "Punk Rock Vegan Movie," which examines the intersection of punk rock music and animal activism.[4] In keeping with the punk rock ethos, Moby released the film for free on YouTube. "Punk Rock Vegan Movie" premiered as the opening night film at the prestigious Slamdance Film Festival in Park City, Utah, ultimately earning awards at the Awareness Festival and Santa Monica Film Festival.
The company has given funding and production assistance to independent documentary features such as “Meat The Future” directed by Liz Marshall, “Slay” directed by Rebecca Capelli, and “Rowdy Girl” directed by Jason Goldman.[5] They also helped produce the short film “Super Cow” by director/writer Dustin Brown. Little Walnut recently invested in the scripted feature film “Eternal Return” starring Kit Harrington and Naomi Scott and directed by Yaniv Raz.[6] In addition, Little Walnut has produced several music videos, including “Natural Blues” (featuring Gregory Porter and Amythyst Kiah), "Walk with Me" (featuring Lady Blackbird), and the award-winning animated video "Are You Lost in the World Like Me?" directed by Steve Cutts.
Little Walnut produces Moby's "Moby Pod" podcast, which premiered in late 2022. The podcast focuses on several topics: animal rights, climate change, creative expression, and mental health. It has featured guests as diverse as Hunter Biden (in one of his rare interviews), Ed Begley Jr., Lisa Edelstein, Dan Buettner, Peter Kalmus, Steve-O, and Joe Manganiello.
Little Walnut is currently in post-production on their first scripted feature, “Tecie,” penned by Moby, directed by Mark Webber, and produced by Hicks and Teresa Palmer.[7][8] The film is based on the activist culture of the Los Angeles animal rights community and is set to star Sarah Jeffery, Mena Massoud, and others.
