Cannes, 2018. I brought a short film called Watchtower to the Croisette. It went on to earn two Emmy nominations.
Then I built a film festival.
Then I spent years fundraising for a feature.
Today we announced @angelcityfilm my feature film directorial debut is heading back to Cannes (market) almost a decade after I first walked into that theatre with a short film and an idea most people thought wouldn’t amount to much…
Independent filmmaking teaches you patience. Running a festival teaches you the business. Doing both at the same time teaches you that talent is everywhere but the discipline to outlast the no’s is what separates the ones who finish from the ones who almost did.
To every artist reading this. it doesn’t matter the pace you move. It only matters that you don’t stop. The work waits for the ones who don’t quit on it… life is a journey, enjoy the ride and don’t forget to smile.

2016 was one of those years you don’t fully understand until you look back. I went on The Price Is Right with my Mom, got called down, and somehow walked away a winner 😂 pretty sure Drew had my back because if you watch closely he literally says “let’s give it to him” 🙏🏽
That same year, we premiered Star Wats Exile at the Vista Theatre. I didn’t know it then, but that moment planted a seed that later became @micheauxfilmfest. I also had the chance to portray the legend Ray Parker Jr and was selected for the CBS Diversity Program, you might see some familiar faces who are still killing it🤩
R.I.P to the late Michael Ajwake Jr, who founded the LA Web Fest. Before he passed from cancer, he gave me an opportunity to screen my web series at a time when I was still figuring things out. That one yes opened doors to the world, including traveling to Italy to screen the work. It meant more than he probably realized and became another quiet inspiration behind Micheaux and the filmmaker I was becoming.
Looking back, it’s less about the moments themselves and more about what they set in motion. A lot of gratitude, a lot of lessons…

R.I.P to the late Michael Ajwake Jr, who founded the LA Web Fest. Before he passed from cancer, he gave me an opportunity to screen my web series at a time when I was still figuring things out. That one yes opened doors to the world, including traveling to Italy to screen the work. It meant more than he probably realized and became another quiet inspiration behind Micheaux and the filmmaker I was becoming.
Looking back, it’s less about the moments themselves and more about what they set in motion. A lot of gratitude, a lot of lessons…

2016 was one of those years you don’t fully understand until you look back. I went on The Price Is Right with my Mom, got called down, and somehow walked away a winner 😂 pretty sure Drew had my back because if you watch closely he literally says “let’s give it to him” 🙏🏽
That same year, we premiered Star Wats Exile at the Vista Theatre. I didn’t know it then, but that moment planted a seed that later became @micheauxfilmfest. I also had the chance to portray the legend Ray Parker Jr and was selected for the CBS Diversity Program, you might see some familiar faces who are still killing it🤩

The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
