DESCRIPTION:My presentation will start with the genesis of InclusionFX. Inc
 lusionFX is a platform designed to support an amplify underrepresented voi
 ces in the VFX for features\, television\, and games industries. I will ta
 ke the audience though my hero’s journey of being a woman and a person o
 f color working in the entertainment industry for thirty years. Starting w
 ith theatre\, film school\, I will talk about what it was like to start ou
 t in independent feature film\, then high-end visual effects\, console\, a
 nd mobile video game production\, running a small game studio and back aga
 in. I will impart was it was like to be in the trenches working on such pr
 ojects as “Contact\,” “Starship Troopers” “Stuart Little\,” 
 “X-Men 2”\, “The Hobbit”\, “The Man of Steel” and much more. I
  will relay why my logo is a Black Unicorn. Why I felt it was time to tell
  my story and create a space for others to tell theirs. The goal is to giv
 e the next generation access to role models by sharing the hero’s journe
 y of a diverse range of professionals. The IFX team is uniquely positioned
  to unite the voices of giants in the VFX and Games industries and present
  their perspectives as a united group of heroes the next generation can lo
 ok up to. This will be achieved by broadcasting an ongoing series of inter
 views and panels that anyone can access. I will divulge key learnings of e
 xpanding and taking advantage of opportunities\, lessons in perseverance a
 nd finding and building your tribe and support system.
