Tubi Greenlights Four Stubios Projects: A Huge Win for New Talent!
Get ready for some fresh faces and new stories! Tubi (that awesome ad-supported streaming service from Fox Corporation) just gave the green light to four amazing projects; it is part of Stubios, that unique platform supporting and empowering up-and-coming filmmakers. It doesn’t stop there! They also partnered with Issa Rae's ColorCreative; creating an invaluable mentorship opportunity to further boost the abilities of future creative talents! That alone deserves some applause; and will definitely affect future productions from these rising stars and this is really worth remembering as their entire program focuses on helping these new artists improve their abilities in meaningful ways! This exciting collaboration isn't simply helping develop fresh, new creative endeavors but also directly promotes those unique individual skillsets and the talent and experience that already existed within this generation; making it far more likely they would develop a creative style!
Stubios focuses on helping new talent build that support base and their community aspect really enhances the likelihood of creating a lasting project which people would want to invest in further, after already gaining a loyal fanbase. It makes far more sense that future ventures by these talented individuals are far more likely to produce even more unique narratives; as these creatives are clearly in a great position, already generating some attention to become known outside this competition's immediate community.
Four Greenlit Projects: From TikTok to Stand-Up Comedy
Let's meet the four lucky winners of this year’s event. First up? Kelon Campbell! This TikTok star's bringing her hilarious Terri Joe character to the big screen. This is a big win! It’s a dramedy and Terri Joe is escaping her small town to explore; seeing just what's out there; exploring what happens as she decides to go and see just what happens in a bigger setting. We will explore some key themes such as religious beliefs and challenging deeply established narratives and expectations. Her very famous character could really earn millions upon official release, making this project a key venture which is predicted to receive several major accolades.
Next? The amazing and wildly talented Lady London’s docuseries gives an intimate look into her amazing life and creative journey of bringing that new album to the world! We can discover several insights behind that incredible talent; and viewers who are familiar with Lady London can rediscover elements which showcase just what a creative effort brought her to achieve what had already transpired in her earlier career. That alone deserves applause and should be considered a massive development and key contribution for an already amazing career. These biographical entries into those kinds of highly intimate environments tend to perform exceptionally well for viewers, providing another compelling viewpoint!
Mo' Waffles! An original half-hour comedy focusing on a new diner (in Atlanta!), This star-studded cast; featuring some popular TikTok creators really should create this truly dynamic group; using what their respective skillsets and fame to help produce something enjoyable. We have Grant Gibbs and Ashley Gill (A Twink and a Redhead) and Robin Jordan; that combined fanbase and their unique comedic style should create some amazing storytelling that everyone could easily relate to! These kinds of shows often create an intensely enjoyable viewing experience and deserve many accolades and this could likely be predicted by simply noticing those various contributors’ respective experience levels!
Finally? Jokes On Us: New Voices in Comedy (airing December 5th). This showcases new stand-up comedians such as Cris Sosa, Daniela Mora, and Grant Moore, delivering those amazing new voices; each sharing their uniquely crafted humor. This creates a perfect end-of-year special featuring many new faces; an event perfectly timed, demonstrating that Tubi already knew those audience members who might just enjoy those kinds of seasonal stand-up acts, generating many more new audiences for Tubi overall!
Stubios' Continued Search for New Talent: 14 More Chances!
And that's not the end. Stubios selected fourteen more applicants; and giving everyone a chance to gain another chance. Their projects will be assessed and judged by fans! That project first reaching 15,000 engagements? Gets greenlit! No one gets there in three weeks? The top performer wins! Those methods focus not only on developing their talent and finding suitable content for future projects, but also generating those loyal fanbase members; building loyalty long before production and pre-marketing.
Issa Rae (co-founder of ColorCreative) describes those mentorship efforts perfectly, stating "It has been so fulfilling to mentor these Stubio runners. I love being involved in the development process. Resources matter, and between myself, Tubi, and the team at ColorCreative, we’re thrilled to support these talented creators and, hopefully, fast-track their careers.” Her thoughts showcase the true value behind such initiatives – the efforts don’t just focus on making money; this shows sincere efforts which deserve further accolades, further emphasizing that Tubi should deserve even more credit. Their unique initiative is highly impressive and demonstrates an unusually collaborative spirit.
