Artists to Watch: SCREENWRITER/PRODUCER - TIFFANY YANCY

Our CEO, Ernestine Johnson met Tiffany Yancy through a mutual friend. They had a brief exchange at a networking event at ABFF 2017 and decided to stay in touch. In August 2020 during strict COVID guidelines, Tiffany shot her first network script "Holiday Heartbreak" in the Maryland/Washington DC area and invited our CEO to work on set. In March 2023, Tiffany’s 2nd network script "Black Girl, Erupted" was shot in LA and will air soon.

Screenwriters are extremely vital to beauty artist professionals. By creating diverse characters, beauty artists have a greater chance of consistent employment in the hair, make-up, and wardrobe departments. Keep writing, Tiffany, and beauty artists will make sure your characters look their BEST.

As a creative, you should ALWAYS be ready to share your work whenever the time presents itself. That is why it is crucial to have an easily accessible visual/online portfolio and to update it regularly.

Attending creator-centered events with your portfolio is a great way to network with other creatives and find new work. A great place to meet new people and present your portfolio is the American Black Film Festival in Miami Beach. It's the ideal event for fun, sun, and opportunities for placement!
