Dear Friends and Supporters,

Please accept our sincerest apologies for our prolonged online silence and absence.

When we undertook this project, we were energized by an irrepressible sense of excitement at the possibilities, which was further fueled by your generous support.

While our enthusiasm and our interest never waned, we needed to take some time to evaluate how to put our resources to best use in pursuit of our goals. We also wanted to figure out how to share all of the things that matter to you and to us in a timely and consistent manner.

After considerable reflection, we are now ready to proceed. Our first order of business will be to consolidate our online presence. To this end, we will be deactivating the multiple pages for our different projects by 11:59 p.m. on Sunday, May 29th, 2016 and creating one umbrella page. You can join us at the new umbrella page, which can be found at:
https://www.facebook.com/bushwickbrands/

We hope that you will continue to be at our side as we embark on a new series of adventures.

Thank you in advance for your continued support. Stay tuned -- we have great things in store!

Best,

Fiona Pemberton

"...the 2000 U.S. Census declared Hispanics the largest ethnic minority in the country, the popularity of all things Latino resulted in the appropriation and commodification of Latino/a images. ... it has not necessarily meant more honest representation or less reliance on common stereotypes. ... the lack of broad creative control and the low numbers of Latinos/as behind the camera, writing the scripts, and in the production office as one reason for the inadequacies of Latino/a images." This is why I write and why I founded Bushwick Media, Straight Outta Bushwick Productions, and ITC Multimedia. Create something TODAY!

Stay tuned for "A Dream Deferred" by Raven S. Blackstone
Synopsis: If a young man’s dream dies and there’s no one but the ‘hood to see it, does it really matter? Juanito would do anything to keep from turning into his father -- a man he views as a broken immigrant wage slave. But, when emotions run deep, you cannot always see things clearly. And, when you cut corners, even the best laid plans can go awry.

I finished the preliminary edit on the "Cife Man episode of In the Cut Entrevistas. Need to clean up the sound, add another sample of the artist's music ("Hovering"), and have an expert look at it. But in the meantime, sing with me "C, I, F, E to the ellipsis..."

Interesting take on the subject...

Director, director of photography, producer and screenwriter from New York City, New York - For me a film exists somewhere before you do it. It’s sitting in some abstract world, complete, and you’re just listening to it talk to you, telling you the way it’s supposed to be. But not until all the soun...
