www.thedsf.org “...the reason I’m still doin’ this....”. ... as I continue Processing our #Vimeoondemand @citycollege9 series, I decided to add a clip that is featured. Over almost 30 years... I have begged for help with this project from several people and companies who I felt could push it further. They have all declined. I fell back and just created a #nonprofit (#dirkswainfoundation ) to #reversethenegative because it did seem like myself and the families were angry. Well, I’m not angry and I do not blame @diddy And #heavyd no less or more than #ems, #nypd or the actual kids that were pushing. It was a long list of reasons the #citycollege9 #died.. Let’s make sure this never happens again. Together. However, I am Sooo glad I now have the #confidence to tell my brother’s #story without begging a major #filmstudio. Unfortunately a lot of us (family) died waiting to see this story as a #film. #itsnotover. #citycollege9 @ava @officialspikelee #centralpark5 @oprah @netflix @amazonstudios #FreshMen #swaincreative #mediagroup (at Nat Holman Gymnasium) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu2B_iPBPmw/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=12peejzt07kco

For the past ten years... I have been running the #dirkswainfoundation’s makin’ room at the top program for youth. We’re coming back to #NYC to continue #reversingthenegative towards the end of the Summer....

Back in 1989... I decided I wanted to be a #filmmaker... mainly because I felt like I had a story to tell. Thought my eyes were like a movie camera. My Dad shook his head for saying this. Haha. Today, I do what I do for the Youth who had the same ideas and interests as I did. My digital company is called Swain Creative Media Group. We own the #dirkswainfoundation’s “makin’ room at the top”(mratt) film program for teens and new artists. Our new component is #digitalmarketing.. TheDsf.org offers kids and new actors/writers the ability to learn film/tv/stage and perform, but we now offer the opportunity to learn how to market and sell what you make. So happy to announce that we will be bringing this awesome program to NYC. This clip was from a #Hollywood #production I produced for talented actors, who were not working. Some of them may remember these days. I have Never been just about “me”, always wanted others to win as well. It’s time to bless #NYC with #Newscripts..#newactors...and this new opportunity. www.thedsf.org #staytuned #comingsoon #Swaincreative #thescreenz https://www.instagram.com/p/Btld59AHCFO/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=4d78f4xe7ecn
