Two weeks ago, Solani hosted a kickoff for Philadelphia-based community leaders, philanthropists, and impact investors to introduce a new feature documentary project centered on @levelupphilly1 . LEVEL UP shows us just what is possible when the community bands together to make change, and that’s our approach as well.
Forget what you think you know about urban reform and get introduced to the largest youth movement in the country. It’s a sanctuary of family and healing where former shooters and car thieves are making music and coding in a state-of-the-art STEM lab. Philly Tangin dance battles are seen by millions worldwide.
Can't wait to share more about this amazing project! Shout out to @p4.hub for hosting us and being such an amazing space for events in Philly.
@speakyourvote but en espagnol with @alinemayagoitia ! Working with creators like Aline is helping us stay calm about the upcoming election, and a good time to remind everyone to vote and vote early!
Solani was called on to help create creator videos for the @speakyourvote campaign. We featured NYC-based influencers who are using their voices, talents, and platforms to turn out the youth vote, like @daniella.sinder ! Move over boomers, clean energy and universal healthcare coming through! Huge shout out to @unioneditorial for amazing edits, and @vgsny for trusting us with this amazing project.
Congratulations to Solani Media Foundress on her third Emmy nomination for Encounters! We think this will be more than a close encounter of the third kind!
