First ever @BraveMakerOrg Creative Summit!!

I made a short film about brothership and drumming with my brother Daniel, who is an amazing drummer, for the Disability Film Challenge. Please share it so you can help us win the Audience award!! It’ll mean a lot youtu.be/GrLmn0d9mKQ?si…

Feel generous? Want to support my nonprofit @BraveMakerOrg? We need people who believe in the arts/film to create change. Our community elevates brave stories & brave storytellers & thru our work we protect & improve the mental health of makers/artists! zeffy.com/en-US/donation…

@SeanFennessey big fan of the pod. I listen & appreciate you. I recently heard you say "commit suicide & commit crimes" in the same couple minutes of podcast. Gracefully, could I suggest? Reframe suicide as "died by suicide" as it does not villify the deceased. Thank u!

Curious about DIRECTING & working w/ Actors? Monday, August 4 @ 10am PDT/1pm EDT KEN WHITTINGHAM offers practical tips & best practices for set. He's directed Amy Poehler, Steve Carrell & Quinta Brunson among hundreds more actors. Register here: go.bravemaker.com/ken-whittingha…

This guy! Our BraveMaker Film Fest theater manager: ARTURO SPELL is a superstar. If you visited the Century Cinemark theater or had a film screen there, you most likely interacted with ART! Grateful to him in this role for the 2nd year in a row!
