(April 7th) It’s been such an incredible beginning of the 2019 year for Saving Our Daughters and inspiring girls within the Cinderella program on bless opportunities in film and television. From being featured on Good Morning America with co-founded Keke Palmer; to having Cinderellas from the Willa Cather School in Chicago participating on a television episode, on FOX’s Empire.
Now in April, the East La Rising Cinderellas were invited on the Universal Studios Lot in Los Angeles, to cut their first commercial, in partnership with new film, Little. The film is a remake of the Tom Hanks film Big.
The commercial included actors, producer and director, Tina Gordan, Regina Hall and Marsai Martin( as Marsai is the youngest person to ever executive produce a film). The film is executive produced by Will Packer, who has created mega hit films such as Think Like a Man, Ride Along and the recent hit comedy, Girls Trip.
Universal Pictures and Will Packer wanted to collaborate with the Cinderella program to create a PSA/commercial to help support young girls dreams in all fields and areas of film; and to celebrate the achievements of women that are behind the camera and making an impact.
Also, including in partnering with the PSA, and before the big opening weekend of the Little film, on April 12th, weekend, the Cinderellas from the Ron Clark Academy in Atlanta and East La Rising in Los Angeles were invited to the Premiere Screenings.
At the screenings the cast and directors/producers of the film, took time to personally talk with the girls, on how proud they were of them and to encourage the girls to stick to their dreams of becoming actors or behind the scenes as directing and producing.
WOW! what a month for the Cinderellas!!
