About Evelyn S.

Soy realizadora audiovisual de profesión y fotógrafa por convicción.. desde el colegio empecé a explorar el mundo de la imágen. Hoy en día el género que más me gusta es el documental. Recientemente tuve la oportunidad de dirigir una serie documental para televisión llamada Relatos de Agua, es por eso que mis temas predilectos son los ambientales. De igual forma me interesa el medio social donde vivo y me muevo, su trasfondo político y gracias al interés que ha generado la colectiva a la que hago parte (Féminas festivas) el tema de mujer y género es también prioridad.

About Sandra P.

I have a Bachelor’s degree in Social Communications and Journalism. As soon as I finished my major I started to work on public television as a journalist, then as a storyteller, and during the last years as a producer, focused on documentaries. Thanks to my writing and bilingual skills, knowledge of communications and affinity with arts and culture, I had the opportunity to be in charge of the strategic communications of the biggest jazz festival of the south area of Colombia. After that experience I have supervised the prior promotion process on social media and internet of most of the documentary series I have created. Due to the different fields approached by every project that I have been involved in, I have had the chance to learn about topics such as traditions of the Colombian pacific, environment, agriculture, education for children, geography, tourism and culture. In this process I have been lucky enough to get in contact with unique people from different organizations around the world and Colombia. This has given me so many perspectives about life and how things can influence people no matter how far they are from each other.

About Steven B.

Steve Ball pioneered by forecasting the niche markets of Black media consumers. He made inroads into Blockbuster in the 90s with his feature films and remixed his success and moved his movie products online early, reading the winds of change. In many ways, his work echoes the Blaxploitation films of the 70s. Like a number of the films, Blacks directed and produced in the underground heyday Balls’ dramas had a moral core beneath the gangster trappings. His best work featured sharp dialogue that probed ethical dilemmas. Now, Mr. Ball is taking his savvy into micro-markets; channeling his narrative savvy and street smarts to the constant appetites of the audience he knows so well.
