Former Miramax Exec Munika Lay Teams With Indie Producer Toni Wang to Launch Luna Media

The production company carries a mission to “shine a light on unseen stories” and will work across film, television and digital content. Luna Media’s slate already includes a recently wrapped feature, Tap Twice , from multi-hyphenate King Bach, aka Andrew Bachelor, who directed and stars in the project.

Luna Lab will seek to accomplish its work of advancing representation through the launch of a development initiative called Luna Lab. An inaugural installment of it is already on the rails with a screenwriting portion that kicked off this summer. From a large pool of applicants, a team of industry professionals first selected 10 semifinalists before the group was whittled down to six finalists (including a writing team of two).

It culminated with a Luna Lab Pitch Day that took place at Rideback Ranch in Los Angeles, where finalists pitched projects to an audience of industry insiders.
