Jack’d Film Series

2020

Cultural Programming

In 2020, during my role as a brand strategy consultant for Jack’d, I initiated and curated a continuous in-app queer film series for their global membership, exceeding fifteen million members. The series highlighted the creations of both emerging and award-winning filmmakers, with a focus on narratives centering around LGBTQ+ BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color).

Vol. 1: “much handled things are always soft” by Derrick Woods-Morrow, “Other Black Boys” by Nyles Washington, and “P.D.A.” by Kadar Small.

Vol. 2: “Holy Matrimony” by Christen Mooney, “Growing Each Day” by Clifford Prince King, “unapologetic me” by Justin Dominic.

Vol. 3: “Sojourn” by Jonathan Lewis, “Kings America Made” by Kameron Mack, “The Young And Evil” by Julian Breece, produced by Aaliyah Williams, and “CHECK IT” by Dana Flor and Toby Oppenheimer.
