The Future of Black History 

MiFILM's first virtual Branded Lab has officially come to an end. Our inaugural Fellows  Luis Santos (Bronx), Abraham Felix (New Orleans), Brandon Haynes(Brooklyn), Alaa Zabara (Virginia), and Okema T. Moore (Brooklyn) are well on their way to become the next best thing in  branded content. We are excited to follow their careers post-lab, and will be back with updates on their success! You can follow them on Instagram to learn more about their work. This month we're doing things a little different. We're highlighting some of the promising Black Filmmakers we think you should keep on your radar. These Directors are breaking barriers, and have inspired us to keep telling stories that celebrate the culture.  We hope that you continue to celebrate the work of Black creators beyond the month of February by supporting and considering them for your upcoming projects. Reminder: HIRE BIPOC CREATORS!Brittany + Ian + Ronald
