Special 02: Live from PROOF Film festival

Actors & Producers on forging your own path

I recently had the honor of moderating a panel during the annual PROOF Film Festival in LA.

Powered by the American Cinematheque, PROOF is dedicated solely to the presentation of proof-of-concept short films, looking to be expanded into feature-length productions or series, and empowering the next generation of cinematic storytellers.

I sat down with actors/producers Margaret Cho, Michael Oloyede, and Darrell Britt-Gibson to discuss the complexities of their multi-hyphenate career paths.

Together we talked about everything from indie filmmaking to the importance of collaboration, and, of course, the current state of the industry.

“For me, the biggest gift I have is community.”

- Michael Oloyede
