Entrepreneurship, Social Justice & Film: An Evening with Attika J. Torrence
The School of Business Center for Societal Impact presents "Entrepreneurship, Social Justice and Film: An Evening with Attika J. Torrence," a discussion with the two-time Emmy Award nominated producer, Television Academy Honors recipient, an award-winning director, an actor, screenplay writer, novelist and a film industry veteran of more than 20 years.
Torrence's Attika’s two Emmy Nominations and the Television Academy Honors Award came from a six-part docu-series he produced titled "Rest In Power – The Trayvon Martin Story." “Rest In Power" was executive produced by Jay Z and the parents of Trayvon Martin, Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin.
In 2021, he was tapped by Coattails Productions to produce and direct the entire #ShowUpTurnOut voting campaign for the 2021 NYC primary elections. He recently wrapped production on his latest feature film and is currently in post production, in preparation for a successful festival run.
Torrence is a founding partner and producer of the Brooklyn FAM (film, arts and media) Conference along with actor Jamie Hector, which is a three-day conference held in the heart of Bedford Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, at Restoration Plaza’s historic Billie Holliday Theater. The Brooklyn FAM Conference (formerly the Bed Stuy / Crown Heights Film Festival) brings out the who’s who in Brooklyn’s thriving film, arts and media community.
