In this episode, Jamie and Marcelese are joined by a special guest! Kayla a Tennessee based artist and program for the Indie Memphis film festival. The three of them discuss Kayla's beginnings as a film programmer, helping to grow the festival's Black Creators Forum, and reconnecting with the city after years away from it. What does amplifying the voices of black independent filmmakers look like in the modern era? How has Covid, the Zoom Era, and the current state of filmmaking changed the film festival landscape?? How does it FEEL to be the queen of Memphis??? Let’s talk about it!
