Media Projects, Inc.


Fonya Naomi Mondell was born into the film business. At a young age her award- winning documentary filmmaker parents were too cheap to pay for babysitters so Fonya often accompanied her parents on their sets and grew up sleeping on editing room floors. While in college, she made her own award-winning documentary, We’re Not Stupid: Living With a Learning Difference.  The film is used in schools worldwide.


She began her professional career in 1997 as a production assistant on a Burt Reynolds feature after living in Los Angeles for only 3 days. There she worked on numerous film productions, eventually moving up the ladder as an assistant director launching her into her producing career. Her ability to network effectively took her to the east coast working in Florida and New York and then back to Los Angeles. By 2004, Fonya’s skills in speaking Spanish landed her a job as a producer for nine months on a novella for Telemundo.  By 2005, Fonya was going to work in a bullet proof vest and helmet producing a show for A&E, Dallas Swat. After working closely with the Dallas Police department and A&E for a year and half, Fox Broadcasting company hired her to produce and direct the Behind- the-Scenes webisodes Prison Break and The Good Guys. Simultaneously, Fonya partnered with King Hollis and his company Media 13 to Produce and Direct promos, commercials and reality tv shows and movies.
