DEAF TALENT®: THE TWO ESSENCES

DEAF TALENT®: THE TWO ESSENCES - a sitcom pilot

DEAF TALENT

A snazzy woman has two jobs: as a day trader and as a mother of three; she craves the life of her sultry 20 year-old deaf daughter.

No matter how many television shows major networks produce, there is always a new and unique view of the human perspective that has never been done. In that vein, Jade Bryan and Jade Films and Entertainment have created a new television pilot titled ”The Two Essences”. This pilot is about a mixed race deaf and hearing family, this story has never been told before on mainstream television.

Jade Films will be among the first to develop and produce a sitcom pilot featuring positive representation of Deaf Talent of Color never done before! Please help us put THE TWO ESSENCES on television and pitch it to the networks at Sundance! Video of our cast and table reading of script excerpts coming soon!

The video you are viewing is from another crowdfunding campaign (Indiegogo). We did not reach our goal. We're trying again with Kickstarter and we need $25,000 to produce the pilot.

DEAF TALENT®

DEAF TALENT® © Copyright Thank you for dropping by to support a social issue and fundraising cause so we can produce our movie, "The Double Life of Zhane Rain."

The Deaf Talent ® Movement, founded by the first Black Deaf Filmmaker/Activist, Jade Bryan in 2012, is a social and cultural icon centralized on spreading awareness about the lack of representation of BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) in television and film. However, Black Deaf actors, writers, producers, and Black Deaf stories are the most overlooked in getting recognition in film and television. This movement began on multiple online and real-life platforms, starting with social media. Jade Bryan created a social media platform by using Twitter and Facebook to spread awareness of the need for better representation in television and film before moving her movement to the streets. (See press release from 2012) A close-knit of Black and POC Deaf Activists from the Deaf community and actors cast in Jade Bryan’s film, The Shattered Mind , (formerly known as The Double Life of Zhane Rain ), met up and campaigned in the streets. The movement lasts for several weeks from
