My dear friend Odessa Rae, is shortlisted for the Oscars for her latest documentary film Hollywoodgate. She won the Oscar last year for her film Navaly. I’m thinking about asking her to join the community once we hit 100 members. What do you think? Should I invite @Odessa Rae (Link to her Instagram) or nah?

Advice: My film crew just got busted in LaGuardia airport for having a lot of 100 volt batteries - it turns out you can have only 2 big spare batteries per person. Luckily, we were a big party and were able to carry the batteries with us, but apparently FAA is getting stricter with the camera gear on flights. ✈️🎥‼️

@Lina Lyte Plioplyte - I thought this is an interesting new resource that will be launching soon.. https://www.theshareplatform.com/
