Digital Transformation for the BIPOC entertainment industry

By interning with Reelworld Film Festival and Screen Institute, I aim to apply my professional experience and academic knowledge within the non-profit creative industry. These skills range from creative problem-solving, human-centred design solutions and critical thinking. With a background in marketing and communications and a student at Ryerson’s FCAD, I look forward to growing the presence of Reelworld Institute in the digital space. This is an opportunity for me to provide support to an organization that needs additional assistance in modifying its business operations to adapt to the new COVID-19 economic reality.

Reelworld Film Festival and Screen Institute is the largest national platform specifically dedicated to amplifying the voices of creators in the screen-based production sectors identifying as Black, Indigenous and People of Colour and I am genuinely excited to be working with an organization and professionals who are dedicated to changing the face of media landscape by empowering and showcasing indigenous talent in mainstream media. During this internship, I will use my marketing, creative problem solving and digital media skills to further the organization’s mission and values.
