Lots of work ahead

"Living Legendz" is a film series of documentaries that explores the lives of African & Latino people who have made contributions to their culture and society which are rarely heard about in mainstream media. Producing autobiographical video essays will encourage students and professors alike the appreciation of history on a new media platform.  

We are in the process of picking a fiscal sponsor for our film series. It looks like Fractured Atlas may be the winner of this because they have a faster turn around then Women Make Movies.  I also have an issue with Women Make Movies because I can remember a while ago while in graduate school how they gave a scholarship to another student in our program that cut corners and hired a professional to shoot her film.  The graduate program at CUNY made the student not graduate when we did, she just walked the stage due she had a lot of time off.  But for WMM to know what she did and still keep the money speaks in volumes to me.  So therefore I am going with Fractured Atlas and see how they work as our fiscal sponsor.  

Ander Kazmerski has come on board as our producer. He use to work with MTV and I believe he is going to make waves in getting this production on it's feet.  Sent him the proposal and he is now working on tightening it up so that Fractured Atlas can review our project.  Working with Dustin McShane as the Editor is going to be awesome he is so skilled at editing and in Premier so that is a plus.  Arzouma Aimé KOMPAORE our graphic designer is awesome he made the poster for the project.  He will also be adding some animation to the project where needed. I want to  give  special thanks to my Sun, Pierre for taking the picture of me it really worked with well on the flyer.

Hopefully we should have the proposal to Fractured Atlas up and ready to go by next week.  It looks like we may have to up the price of the tickets if we go with the fiscal sponsor for obvious reasons they are going to want their percent.  I am sure that will not deter people from coming to the event.
