Film Submission, Short Film Premiere, and More...


Hey everyone! I know you're probably wondering where we've been. There's been a lot happening behind the scenes and we'll have more updates soon.


CALLING ALL STORYTELLERS ๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ

We're building out Shaded Media's Youtube page to be a hub for Black storytellers and their films. What happens after that festival run is over? Do you have projects just sitting on hard drives collecting digital dust? If you're interested in having your project featured on our Youtube page, SUBMIT YOUR FILM. This is a pilot program and we're figuring it out as we go! Our goal is to showcase one new film a month. We'll put together a digital marketing campaign and roll out for you.


Our short film jUnKiE is set to premiere on Tuesday, May 13th at 7:30 pm on Youtube. We shot jUnKiE right before the pandemic hit, which severely delayed our post production timeline. We finished the edit in 2022 and it's been collecting digital dust since then. We're ready to finally share it with you. If you came to our launch in December 2022, then you already got a sneak peek. Subscribe and turn on your notifications!

B.L.O.C. is a revolutionary web and mobile application designed to streamline the casting and crew hiring process within the film and entertainment industry. Serving as a dual portal for both talent and industry professionals, it fosters connections, job opportunities, and community engagement.

WE NEED YOUR INPUT! ๐Ÿ‘€

Help us design the perfect app by taking our survey.

The survey will take about 15-20 minutes of your FULL attention to complete. Please answer honestly and as in depth as you can. The more information the better. We want to make sure we are building something that people find useful, and that actually solves many of the problems we all have faced, and continue to face throughout our careers.

Share this survey with other media professionals. The goal is to get 1000 responses by the end of May. ๐Ÿ˜… Text your colleagues, drop it in those group/FB/Whatsapp chats, send it to whatever film organization you're a member of and ask them to blast it out to their network, etc. Any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated.


That's all folks. ๐Ÿ˜Š Until next time...
