More Zap newsletter 2026

I said this in 2020, before the world learned the new word “Covid" and we had universal quarantines.

Now I say it again, as we enter the calendar year 2026:

"Business as usual" 

has never been a thing for More Zap and we’re not afraid to find new ways to develop opportunity, while locking in what has always worked for us; authentic relationships that we build upon, picking up the phone when many are just texting, using our hashtag #hustle to open doors, learning new skills and refocusing our approach when required. 

We have some new TEAM members on board, and we’re delighted to have hired More Zappers of all ages—from Boomers to Gen-Zs—to help keep us nimble, open minded, plugged in, and encourage creative dialogue with different perspectives.

Our TALENT roster for stage and screen is supreme- we represent all ages, all types and they all have what it takes to make a dent in “Hollywood” and forge forward. Right out of the New Years gate, we have one triple threat joining a pre-Broadway workshop for the new DREAMGIRLS in NYC. We have a client swinging multiple roles in a musical under the stars in Utah, and manuscripts being edited and pitched in all genres of book publishing: Including upmarket women’s fiction, true crime, children’s nonfiction, and memoirs.  

We are in development of scripts and taking meetings to open new doors and secure distribution windows for Film/TV content in English & Spanish. Our LITERARY clients are made up of book authors, playwrights, screenwriters and creative leads in the digital world. We are proud of the PROJECTS we are currently offering and excited to make connections with new executives, producers, partners, directors, investors and distributors internationally.

The Passion to Power podcast returned to being LIVE in front of an intimate house audience, hosted by THE ASTER LA, on Hollywood & Vine (11/13/25) and it was a sensational event with amazing guest speakers. We are looking forward to creating more live panel discussions in venues domestically and overseas. If you are interested in hosting our events at your hotel, club, resort or other location, please send us an email. Let’s Do It!

We have a new (Canva) presentation available to view and we’re happy to share it. You can watch it as a slideshow with manual clicks, so you can speed up or slow down or pause on images and information you want to know more about. It's a fun collection of our on camera ACTORS, the recent BOOKINGS and some BTS. Enjoy! I hope you like viewing it as much as we enjoyed putting this together for you.

If you have IDEAS about how we can work together, please reach out.


Here’s to prosperity and good vibes!

BIO: Michelle Zeitlin had early dreams of becoming a Ballerina. And she was successful, landing a coveted position with the JOFFREY BALLET COMPANY in NYC.
