In Dec of 2023 Malik Yoba came to the set of my horror comedy short film. I talked to him, casually and calmly about my film and my plans. I fully freaked out days later. That film will premiere in Feb next year at the Winter Film Festival in NYC. I’m still freaking out.

While video game RPGs are certainly fun, tabletop games are also an involved social experience more Black women should have the opportunity to participate in.

Signing off until 2026! Happy Everything!

Remember the Mentos commercials? Inspired by late stage capitalism, these faux ads for an evil soda are all a part of Cold Sweat, an edutainment project using scary stories to have tender conversations. Check out its first installment “Wham!” and other films by creators of the Mexican diaspora.

Had a great time with these amazing filmmakers—Li Sumpter, @duskyprojects.bsky.social, and Gabe Castro—at the How to Serve Man event last week. We screened our shorts and answered questions (moderated by The Micheaux Mission's own Len Webb). #BlackSky #HorrorSky #FilmSky

The film is part of the larger educational project Cold Sweat, which uses scary stories to facilitate discussions with young audiences about what scares us and how to face the monsters together. The project was cut short by the pandemic. Dusky Projects is thrilled to be able to share it again!

"Wham!" is the story of Aquilah and friends who are the best students at MLK Middle School until their classmates break out into mysterious rage episodes. Our heroes must break the rules to find out the truth and save their school. And their futures.
