Back from L.A. (again)



I had went to LA again to see our composer, Kahil El'Zabar perform with the Ritual Trio featuring Ari Brown at the Jazz Bakery. Ohhh! It was so inspiring, I have been vibin' on it ever since. The thing is that the soundtrack/score is so important to this film b/c the family is headed by musicians and that music is their lives. Our new producer, Alexandra Overton was able to join me at the concert...and we had a ball. here's us at her apartment:


I think Alex reminds me of my sister, I showed my mom the picture she said Alex looks like kin...

At the Hollywood Black Film Festival

I've been very blessed to attend the HBFF this year. We spent a good deal of time taking in the festival and connecting with many different filmmakers. I am glad to say that there are a lot of folks who are out doin' their thang...and a lot of creativity! I got a chance to pitch the project, it went very well! One exec said that he will never forget the pitch...We have been able to connect with some exec's interested in FB, I'll keep you all posted as things solidify. Keep sendin' up your love!
