Overview
Misha Novak is a filmmaker in Current Affairs. She is a Southerner, the college sweetheart and creative partner of Clint Prescott, and one of Rebecca Sedki’s No-Fly friends. The manuscript describes Misha in her mid-twenties as wearing a lot of makeup, with a face that suggests a cousin of Kate Middleton. She appears at the Blood Ties premiere in professional makeup, pearls, and a prom-styled dress.
Misha has stronger practical follow-through than her sometimes directionless manner first suggests. She remains socially close to Calvin Munn and Rebecca even as the No-Fly circle changes.
Biography
Misha and Clint are introduced as filmmakers and college sweethearts in Rebecca’s birthday circle. Their vampire horror musical Blood Ties becomes part of Calvin and Rebecca’s history when Calvin uses one of its long-take party scenes to propose.
Misha stays present in Calvin and Rebecca’s married social life. She gives Calvin Adderall, dances with him and then intimately with Rebecca at No-Fly, and later speaks with Calvin on a fire escape after tension in the group.
During the later film-world phase of the old scene, Misha and Clint help Calvin obtain cocaine and use the money for their camera package fund. At the Rockrest Theater premiere of Blood Ties, Misha credits Calvin for helping connect them with Walter Yeo, whose backing helped the film reach completion.
