“Original Trends needed a home where creativity is prevalent and diversity is celebrated,” says Michelle Tung, independent filmmaker and creator of Original Trends. “Culver City offers the perfect backdrop for this production. Those that crave uniqueness in their purchases will find Original Trends to be a pure artistic endeavor – the “anti-mall” of shopping experiences.”

Original Trends was created by Michelle Tung, a jewelry designer (owner of Pisces) and film maker (owner of Serenity Productions). After receiving her degree from CSU Northridge, Tung worked as an art director and production designer for several independent films and saw an opportunity to combine her passion for design with her passion for film by developing Original Trends into a multi-artistic showcase.
