Striving to Be FAMOUS on PURPOSE!!!!



This weekend I had the opportunity to volunteer for the Peachtree Village International Film Festival, and I must say that I had a wonderful work experience. I was surrounded by professionals who were never under any pressure to act "hollywood", but to be the consummate showman's.

Working with Len Gibson, Dora Durant, Autumn Bailey, Shetoya McClinton, Tommy Wright, Jerry Tatum, J. 'JB' Brown, and so many countless others... that assisted in a smoothly ran film festival, made my time in Atlanta that much more enjoyable.

I had the opportunity to listen to Tyler Perry's business associate, Roger Bobb discuss his rise to a dream preferred, the mighty golden boy screenwriter, Gregory Anderson (Stomp The Yard), as well as the ever-so humble Rockmond Dunbar and Malcolm Lee, discuss their love for their profession, respectively, acting and directing.

I am so glad I opted to volunteer for the PVIFF, because it inspired me even more to get my work done.

I can't even begin to tell you how exciting this experience was, even though there is that part of me saying I could of been on the panels, but I also feel I have a long way to go, and for that I am grateful, I will just make sure I take advantage of every chance I get to develop as many relationships as I can.

Thanks Vatrice for hooking a brother up.
