Hello again; I hope you are doing what you can to take action in your life while staying safe.
This post is one that I planned to write more often until the loss of my trusty laptop last year left me struggling to keep all the balls in the air.
This post is intended to tell you about the most recent interview by one of my online media clients.
In this case Anthony Saldana and Jason Figueira the award winning film makers behind the documentary Straight Off the Canvas.
They were appearing on one of the top UK podcasts concerning the entertainment world.
You can read the show description from the hosts below.
In this weeks episode of The Entertainment Engine, we welcome Anthony Saldana an Award-winning filmmaker based in Queens, New York! He has a Bachelor of Arts in Media Studies from the Queens College City University of New York and a Masters of Arts Degree in Communications from the New York Institute of Technology.
The latest film Anthony Saldana & Jason Figueira have produced is called ‘Straight Off The Canvas’ an award-winning documentary that captures the journey and passion of several New York artists that are blind and visually impaired. This amazing film shows us how the visually impaired can create, teach, and appreciate art. It features working artists and art teachers from the New York City area. This film has won several awards, including being named Best Public Awareness Video in the 42nd Annual Telly Awards and is judged by leaders from video platforms, television, streaming networks, production companies including Netflix, A&E Networks, Nickelodeon, ESPN Films and Vimeo.
Both Anthony and Jason have a great back story, looking at how they both met and how they came to decide to make films about groups like the visually impaired.
Anthony and Jason have been collaborating ever since they met in college, and are the writers, filmmakers, and producers of two documentaries so far: “Straight Off the Canvas” and “We’re Ordinary People.”
Then we had a talk about their own personal adversities and how their experiences play into their lives. They haven’t let their disabilities or Covid keep them from continuing to chase their dreams of being successful filmmakers.
We really hope you enjoy the conversation…..
