Remarkable Quote:

"I grew up seeing my mom take care of herself. But also, I was always fed, my house was always clean, and my dad was always happy. So to see that she was able to do that and still take time for herself, I wanted women in this world and in this Western world to also feel that as a new mom."

Founder & CEO of Space Dream Productions, Koura Linda grew up notorious for her elaborate crepe-paper birthday party decorations and painting murals on the walls of her bedroom. She always loved anything creative, and started writing out character development and script ideas and shot lists in her composition notebooks as a kid and was working as an art teacher's assistant as soon as she could legally hold a job.

Fast forward about a decade, after stumbling in with an art department crew one summer, she quickly fell in love with production design and spent the next 10 years working on set and event design, eventually getting into full production design.

She never went to film school, or art school, or college at all, but she knew that production design entails more than just the set. So, she studied acting and writing and camera and lighting, working as a day-player where she could, eventually taking a 3-day rigging intensive to become a certified set rigger and later working with electric, rigging lights on concert stages across LA.

When she wasn't 50 feet in the air on a truss rig she'd helped build, she was studying design and make-up and wardrobe, eventually moving up to Art Director and then Production Designer then Event Producer for large private events, soon followed by work in various music videos, TV shows, and films.

Following a sudden and critical medical event, Koura was forced to reevaluate her life and decide how she was to move forward with physical limitations which inhibited most of her prior activities. Determined to continue in film, with such a strong background and familiarity across so many departments and tons of hands-on experience in business and film, it was a small jump to land back on her feet in producing and directing, eventually starting a small independent production company.

Since September 2016, just under 30 completed Space Dream Productions projects have received over 150 award nominations and have won 51 awards, including 12 projects nominated for or winning "Best Picture" categories at festivals around the world. Both Koura and her partner and husband, Spaceship, have been awarded Best Director for multiple different short films.

She has been recognized as a contributing artist to two Emmy Award winning projects through her work for Joseph Gordon-Levitt's open collaborative production platform, hitRECord. In August 2019, Koura was also awarded the Mico Award in Las Vegas for Innovation, Courage, and Excellence in her career thus far as an independent filmmaker.

You can find Koura on Instagram, LinkedIn, as well as her Website.
