Founder, Las Vegas Black Film Festival
This week, Ira Sternberg spoke with Ms. Michelle, founder of the Las Vegas Black Film Festival, April 21-24 at the Suncoast Hotel. In this episode of Talk About Las Vegas, Ms. Michelle talks about her challenges in starting the festival nine years ago; how her tenacity overcame the negative advice from her university adviser; why she decided Las Vegas was the perfect location for the festival; creating a welcoming environment for filmmakers; what categories are used for films; how films are submitted from around the world; why she is able to attract top talent to submit films and appear; and why there is no red carpet…but an orange one!
