Why Being Lit From the Black Issa Win!

 

Let’s talk about the technical side of being Black on stage/on film.

Y’all it’s crucial to have the culture in front and behind the stage (or the camera). it get why! Because we can’t be out here looking grey unprovoked on stage, on film. (unless that’s the look). We can’t be out here with our sound levels not matching the vibe and genre of the audio we tryna have. And there’s just a lot that goes into production, set design, costumes, sound and audio, stage management and you name it. We love it when our folks have the skills to make our productions look and sound good and we had to give a lil’ highlight to these moments that inspire us.
