To celebrate the 100th year anniversary of the Harlem Renaissance, creatives, artists and activists alike united to produce a festival for the history books. xLab’s film producers worked closely with the executive board and producers of Harlem Pride and directed a documentary featurette surrounding this moment.
The cinematic setting was too perfect, so we went all in with a full film crew, two Sony FS7’s, one run and gun Sony SF5, a Sony A7RII, and a couple Canon Rebels for documentary stills. We had the opportunity to direct a couple interviews off the cuff with POSE FX cast member Dominique Jackson, as well as Political Drag Icon Marti Gould Cummings.
Thank you to the Harlem Pride community for an incredible landmark event experience and collaboration for the books.
