We had such a remarkable and inspiring time celebrating 2023 CDDP Directing Fellow- Allison A. Waite- at the 2024 Tribeca film Festival. Her beautiful & moving Delta commercial “Home”- created during her participation in the CDDP-Commercial Directors Diversity Program- was nominated for Best Commercial during Tribeca X. We were a mighty group of celebrators that included Ned Brown-EP from her mentoring production company/Florence; and Dave Lambert & team from mentoring Agency Wieden+Kennedy/NY. What a fun time and a much deserved honor for our rising Star and her incredible team. We had a blast. And it coincided with AICP week which is always a fun and educational event. Very serendipitous indeed! Check out her commercial here and find out more about the CDDP at: ! @theaicp @directorsguild @tothosewhowaite @baobabt @nedbrown @tribeca @tribecafilmfestival @delta @_florence.co @wiedenkennedy @filmmakersalliance @filmmakersalliance @dave_lambert

Link in Bio💻This is it: ONCE UPON A CALL TIME🎬 As my closest crew friends know, the majority was written during the 2021 IATSE negotiations. To the non-critical thinkers: please, don't call it "union busting." I didn't post it in 2021, (when it bursted out of me at 5a.m.) because of the sudden death of Halyna; then I thought it could serve this year's negotiations - last Monday, a respectable Hollywood publication confirmed they'd publish it around Wed🗞️ After the #IATSE TA, they cancelled last min. I'm grateful to have been considered. It inspired my "New Deal" metaphor. I know IATSE folks are working hard to get the best corporate compromise, but a momentum to DO THE RIGHT THING is still missing. Despite the financial gains, crew struggles are shrugged under the rug. GOODBYE, 📧 P.S. Yes, #spikelee was one of the nicest directors I worked with, so I paid a lill' homage to him here 😉 Also thank you to #publicenemy for the musical inspo 🎼#iasolidarity #filmcrew #makingmovues #setlife #dga #sagaftra #wga #sag #asc #iatse #dotherightthing #behindthescenes🎬 #actor #director #artistsequity

@bcccuny 30th annual Student film festival, it’s always good to come back, pay it forward. They also showed my film before the student films, which I have to say were impressive. This is what it’s about. @cunyalumni @cunyedu

Stunning El Dorado County offers more than 1800 mi.² of remarkably diverse topography for filming movies, music videos, and commercials, nestled between Sacramento and the magnificent Sierra Nevada. From open ranch land and rugged forest to verdant meadows, El Dorado county is a location managers dream! #laketahoe #eldoradocounty #onlocationshoot #locationscouting #filmproduction
