PANELS & WORKSHOPS
Friday, Aug. 12th Panels:
"Financing From A BRAND New Perspective"
The advertiser is no longer reaching mass audiences because the consumer has grown
weary. Advertisers have re-positioned themselves outside the logo-covered branding
box, and are now working together with producers to create branded content that is
seamless and transparent. What are the key ingredients that make this integration
effective? Is it possible to secure a place for branding in the financial structure of a
project regardless of the platform?

“Greenlighting Your Future in Film & Television”
Yes is the most powerful word in Hollywood. No matter how hard a writer labors over a
script or how big a star signs on for a movie, you still need the approval of higher-ups —
the greenlight — to enter production. With studios making more expensive movies and
their corporate parents demanding quarterly profits, every decision is fraught. Long gone
are the days when a hotshot director could waltz into an executive’s office, pitch a movie,
and walk out with $100 million. It’s possible to greenlight your own projects ultimately
greenlighting your own future if you follow the right steps. It doesn’t happen overnight
but it is possible. These panelists will help guide you through this process!
Panelists: Qasim Basir, Producer/Writer/Director (“Moozlum,” “Destined” etc.), Tommy
Oliver, Producer/Director (“1982,” “The Perfect Guy,” “Destined” etc.), Tangi Miller,
Actress/Producer/Director (“My Girlfriend’s Back,” “Madea’s Family Reunion,” “Diva
Diaries” etc.), Nahala Johnson (Mr. Boomtown)- (Music Video Director/ Film Director:
Lil Wayne, Gucci Mane, Rick Ross, 50 Cent, Ludacris, Waka Flaka etc.)
