Being the Box Office assistant and one of the Production assistants for UrbanWorld Film Festival (Nov 1-4) was a great learning experience. I definitely enjoyed meeting so many people at the festival. Especially those I admire in the industry! As a writer, I love getting inspired by other filmmakers. It was great being able to volunteer for two film festivals this year. Also having two of my own projects selected. A DREAM COME TRUE 🥰. *Last slide.. continuing to manifest ✨🤞🏾. #urbanworldfilmfestival #storiesbysey #uwff #uwff2023

While we were unable to get interpreters, we had to use an Otter voice recognition app from my iPhone to listen to the speakers. I wouldn’t recommend this approach, having an AI taken up interpreters’ jobs. We didn’t stay for the entire panel because this feels disconnected. This is why SAG-AFTRA fought against the studios from using AI generated systems to take over their acting roles. Next Generation Content Creation" presented by OpenAI OpenAI + Urbanworld partnered to create a special program, The OpenAI Creator Lab, supporting three creators (ages 18-25) to engage in training and mentorship with ascending filmmakers who have been using AI to create pitches for short films and series. Kicking off with a conversation with mentors Alexia Adana, Chad Nelson, and DC Saxton, we will explore the capabilites of OpenAI's technology, the future of AI tools supporting storytelling, and the process explored in the pilot program. The inaugural class of OpenAI Creator Lab mentees will then present their trailers, produced solely utilizing OpenAI's suite of tools. Each mentee will be given the opportunity to dive into their creative process and answer questions from the audience. @urbanworldff @deaftalentmedia @jadefilms_projects @deaftalentcasting #MICAScoop #Media #Press #Film #DeafTalentMedia #UWFF #UW23 #FilmFestival #AMCTheatres #TimesSquare #NewYorkCity #urbanworldfilmfestival #DeafTalent®️ #ElevatingDeafTalent #JadeBryan30 #thirtyyearsinbusiness

“It was so important to me to find Navajo kids because they all experienced their grandmothers living on the rez. The two leads both live in Phoenix & they totally understood these characters.” “They have such great chemistry together, they really shine on screen. Every time I watch the film their performances blow me away. They’re incredible & bring even more to it than the characters that I’d written on the page.” Filmmaker @brluther speaks exclusively with The Queer Review’s editor @jameskleinmann about working with @charley.hogan.az & Keir Tallman on his debut narrative feature, Frybread Face & Me, opening in select theaters & premiering @netflix on November 24th.

“I wanted to tell a story that was authentic & also one that could resonate with people outside of my community.

Urbanworld Film Festival is returning to New York for its 27th year with its foundational goal still in mind: amplifying Black stories. With Karen McMullen stepping into the role of festival director, this year’s five-day showcase will continue to portray the many nuances of Black culture, spotlight industry veterans, and introduce new talents to the industry. #bwim #bwim10 #bwim100 #blackwomeninmedia #urbanworldfilmfestival
What a whirlwind trip back to the Big Apple for the 27th annual Urbanworld Foundation (Film Festival) in New York that celebrates and elevates the work of women and BIPOC filmmakers from around the world. I served as a juror in the animation and Young Creator division along with speaking at the UW Innovation Summit where the FutureCast foundation curated a conversation called "Being Seen behind the Scenes". It was a discussion about diversity and inclusion pipelines with 'below the line' and production crew member jobs in the film and entertainment industry. Special thanks to UrbanWorld founder Stacy Spikes, Wright One Media Group, Netflix, and the Handy Foundation for helping make this important conversation happen. So honored to be included with such a dynamic group of world changers. #netflix #handyfoundation #wrightonemediagroup #urbanworldfilmfestival #animation #film #movies

One of the directors at @urbanworldff mentioned that he was inspired to make his film after being prompted to think about a story only he could tell. For some reason, this really made me reflect on my own stories and the ways in which I honor and share them. I’ll randomly be talking to people and mention something I’ve done or been through, and they’re always fascinated but I just look at them as regular 🤷🏾♀️ This weekend I was inspired to put pen-to-paper and start really thinking about my own stories. I’m not going to lie, I had myself cracking up a few times 😂 Idk if the world will ever see them, but starting the process definitely brought me joy. Q: What are ways that you remember and honor the stories of your life that only you could tell?
Over the weekend, @ourheroesrock's short film #Bridges had its world premiere at the @urbanworldff. @itsmimichelles and @illfam79 attended the screening, and Mimi shared her thoughts on the film and it's journey on the site.

I love the enlightenment and the vibes of meeting new people at a Black space during the Urban World Film Festival. We met Shirley “Shirlz” Rejouis who signs fluently in ASL. She is a second generation Haitian American from Orange, NJ. I sense the island Caribbean energy, no doubt! She is the Co-Host /Co Creator of The MillenniHer Podcast. @i_5urelyrejoice @amandaseales @urbanworldff @henrytm1991 @oh_tayyy_ @deaftalentcasting @deaftalentmedia @mica_scoop Since she works with Amanda Seales who also has her own podcast platform, Shirley asked me if she would be interested in doing a podcast about my work with Amanda. I said, sure. Anyways, she used to work at Bruce Street School for the Deaf about 15 years ago.

So thrilled to see Gina Price-Bythewood again! Been 20 years since I talked to her at the Pan African Film Festival in Los Angeles when she premiered her movie, “Love and Basketball”! She is the director of “The Woman King.” I told her she deserved the Oscar award for her work on “The Woman King”. I also said if she needs consultation and seeks deaf actors, this is what Deaf Talent®️ Media does. Here’s my card. ✊🏾🎥🎬🥰👸🏾🤘🏾 Reggie Rock Bythewood seen in the other photo is her husband.

“Films really can change a conversation and change someone's thinking and perception, especially with people of color at the center. It rarely happens. I think it's important for both the community but also the world to see people of color in all genres, especially love stories.” - Gina Prince-Bythewood That’s why the movement we have been fighting for our place and by pushing for more representation of BIPOC Deaf Talent®️ and creatives in television and on the screen is so important.

Day 4 at the Urban World Film Festival. Some people may not have been aware that since the SAG-AFTRA is still on strike, actors are not allowed to promote their films unless they are filmmakers. Only filmmakers, producers , directors, and writers can. This is considered scabbing and is a violation of the union rules. Can actors promote any of their projects? In short — no. In addition to stopping all work on camera and behind the scenes, actors are prohibited from promoting projects they’ve already filmed, in the form of interviews, premieres, fan expos, press junkets, festivals, and podcast appearances, among other types of publicity. SAG members are also banned from promoting their projects via social media. #MICAScoop #Media #Press #Film #DeafTalentMedia #UWFF #UW23 #FilmFestival #AMCTheatres #TimesSquare #NewYorkCity #urbanworldfilmfestival #DeafTalent®️ #ElevatingDeafTalent #JadeBryan30 #thirtyyearsinbusiness

While attending the Urban World Film Festival this year, as an acting coach and talent manager of Deaf Talent®️ Casting, one of my biggest passions is to guide my talents in every aspect of their acting career in the entertainment and media worlds by placing them in an environment, such as a high pace event like this one where they can develop their potentials, creativity, and networking skills.
