Today on the podcast:
We visit Camden Rep to talk about the upcoming event, Hammer and Nails Conference. An offering that introduces girls of color to behind-the-scenes career in theater and film. Here is my interview with Camden Rep for Hammer and Nails.
Camden Rep introduces girls of color between the ages of 14 and 18 to behind-the-scenes careers in theater and film with the company’s first Hammer and Nails Conference on Monday, Feb. 3 at Creative Arts High School, located on the campus of Camden High. Bringing together industry professionals and mentors with young, future creatives for a day of inspiration, learning and empowerment, the conference aims to create a career pipeline to the design, technical and production sides of theater and film. The three-pronged event will include a panel discussion featuring industry professionals Toni Barton (production designer for film and TV), Pamela Hobson (tour manager and lighting designer), Kathy A. Perkins (lighting designer and professor emerita of Africa/African Diaspora theater) and Marci Rodgers (award-winning costume designer); a 45-minute hands-on session during which attendees can gain practical experience in key areas of the design and production process; and a Meet-and-Greet Lunch, offering the girls a unique opportunity to connect with the panelists and mentors, gaining inspiration and guidance for their own creative paths.
