In this episode, I sit down with Keith Dukes III and Tony Diallo, the creative forces behind Pixalfest, a short film festival in Washington, DC, that showcases the work of young filmmakers. We discuss the origins of Pixalfest, its mission to provide filmmakers a space to test and improve their work, and the importance of inclusivity in creating a supportive community. Keith and Tony share insights into how they balanced the creative and business sides of organizing the festival, their collaborative approach, and their passion for giving filmmakers a platform to grow. Tune in for an inspiring conversation about the intersection of arts, collaboration, and the power of starting something new.
