<div><b>Princess is an award-winning screenwriter, director, producer and playwright from Brooklyn, NY.  Her last short film, Khadijah has screened at multiple festivals, including the Charlotte Black Film Festival, Newark International Film Festival, and Baltimore Black Film Festival, to name a few. </b>
</div>
<div><b><br /></b>
</div>
<div><b>As a teen, Princess was often referred to as a "troubled" youth, and she credits the arts for saving her life by providing an outlet for her to explore and explore her emotions. Upon graduating Stony Brook University, </b>
</div>
<div><b>she promised herself that she would always pay it forward and help others find their light via artistic expression.</b>

<div><b>Princess had the amazing opportunity of working with Foster Care Unplugged to write, direct and serve as the acting coach for </b>
</div>
<div><b>Foster Care Unplugged: The Stage Play (Parts I and II),a series of productions sponsored by NYC foster care agencies and ACS, designed to help youth within the child welfare system share their stories with the world.

</div>
<div><b><br /></b>
</div>
<div><b>She founded her company, Mobella Productions to help others bring stories to life on film, specifically those of underrepresented communities. She finds that education, training and access to opportunities is paramount for those pursuing a career in the arts, so the company also runs youth programs and provides reel production services for actors.</b>

</div>
<div>Hi! Joyclyn, Melanie and Castanita here and we are 3 Black Lived <span style="letter-spacing:0.0085px;">Experience Experts of the sex trade. We are shooting a short film project</span>
</div>
<div>discussing our life in prostitution and its impact on our lives.<span style="letter-spacing:0.0085px;">This film will be highlighting some important themes</span><span style="letter-spacing:0.0085px;"> including: Race, Full Decriminalization of the Sex Trade, </span><span style="letter-spacing:0.0085px;">the Prison Industrial Complex, and prostitution as cyclical generational </span><span style="letter-spacing:0.0085px;">oppression. </span>
</div>
<div><span style="letter-spacing:0.0085px;"><br /></span>
</div>
<div><span style="letter-spacing:0.0085px;">As we recognize that </span><span style="letter-spacing:0.0085px;">prostitution has affected many folks of different ages, Joyclyn, Melanie and </span><span style="letter-spacing:0.0085px;">Castanita represent 3 different generations- with over 40 years of lived </span><span style="letter-spacing:0.0085px;">experience combined- and will talk about the effect of being in the ‘game’ at different </span><span style="letter-spacing:0.0085px;">times. As this is a ground-up project, we are asking for your help with the </span><span style="letter-spacing:0.0085px;">startup costs. </span><span style="letter-spacing:0.0085px;">We are trying to raise at least $8,000 dollars to get this show on the road! All </span><span style="letter-spacing:0.0085px;">donations will go towards the following:</span>

<div>This is the first video of its kind and will be extremely useful towards our <span style="letter-spacing:0.0085px;">advocacy efforts nationwide. YOU have the opportunity to help fund </span><span style="letter-spacing:0.0085px;">something special. This film will be circulated to schools, conferences, panel </span><span style="letter-spacing:0.0085px;">discussions and more! </span>
