"You Oughta Be In Pictures", with special guest Marquita Owens-Robinson [Sea 3 / Ep 1]

Ahhhh, Hollywood….the land of big dreams and, also, major DEBAUCHERY.  Too often we find Hollywood films and TV shows featuring far too much gratuitous sex and violence, as well as negative and stereotypical portrayals, and not enough POSITIVE images or morally upright depictions.  But many companies are seeking to change all of that by providing TV and film content which serves to balance out the negativity we see….including companies like the all-minority, all-women based company of T&T Management and Production out of Atlanta, Georgia and one of its members, Ms. Marquita Owens-Robinson, who happens to be one of our special guests today!  Ms. Owens-Robinson is an established actor, screenwriter and producer, and is making her directorial debut with the short faith-based film entitled “The Prayer Warrior”.  She joins us this episode to kick off Season 3 of “Deeper In The Word” to discuss not only her background and her upcoming projects, but also to engage us in a spirited discussion about the need for greater positive representation in film and TV projects, including an infusion of more faith-based films in Hollywood, and the proof that there IS a MARKET for such projects.  Discussion topics include being a zombie in the freezing cold, why nepotism works, how Black women aren’t ALWAYS at each other’s throats, 4:30am discussions with God and an overview about how a 12-year old introduces the power of the Lord to her family!
