Mel Hagopian's experience in media began with her partnership
involvement with Intuition Music/imi records in Chicago, IL, where she
concentrated on Business and Production Management, supervising
contracts and agreements between major advertising companies, Intuition
Inc., and the various talent unions such as AFM, SAG, and AFTRA. She
also ran the business operations of the two companies and produced
projects for imi records. While in Chicago, Mel was also a freelance
flutist and performed live and on many recordings.
After moving to New York, Mel created and developed spring-us.com, a web destination intended as a media portal for promoting small private businesses to consumers everywhere. I concentrated on copywriting & producing, as well as on-set shooting and directing. She also produced a number of projects for Spring in the areas of live event coverage.
Mel's work as a partner in Rock Road Media includes writing and co-creating fiction and non-fiction programming content, writing and producing corporate media projects, and filming documentaries. "Waist Management," a gym-based reality show, had interest from several networks before the "star" withdrew from the project for personal reasons. She is also developing an original fiction treatment for television, as well as an independent, original comedic screenplay.
Hagopian wrote the American screenplay adaptation of the Danish animated feature film, "Ronal the Barbarian" in 2011. The film has been featured at film festivals worldwide, and is looking for distribution in the United States.
She is the co-founder of the creative writing blog "My Ink Project". This contemporary blog is dedicated to all forms of "ink", and is both novel and entertaining. My Ink Project is where Mel writes about the tattoos on our souls, and how our lives are defined by our deepest memories and experiences. She is also pens a series of articles on the creative process entitled, "Creative Garden."
Mel has a BM in flute performance from The Boston Conservatory of Music, and is an award winning producer of Cathy Block's children's recording , "Timeless".
Mel is in production on a feature length documentary film about women and the benefits of social networking. In addition to writing, producing and being one of the subjects in "We Are All Sisters," Mel recently completed her first novel, "Letters to Mary," and contributes to the Blipfoto journal as The Love Child Chronicles.
