Film Connection students with mentor Deen Olatunji
Mark your calendar! A number of Film Connection students and graduates’ films will be premiering at the PressPlay Film Festival! Speaking of the festival, mentor Deen Olatunji, owner of Rehoboth Pictures says:
“Whenever we do anything, Film Connection students are always involved. Either they’re involved directly, being part of the client’s work, or it’s actually their own project. So right now, out of the 10 films we’re going to show, seven of them are originals from Film Connection students themselves, written and directed by Film Connection students…I feel it’s a great opportunity.
We’ll have more on this in our next issue so be sure to subscribe!
Recording Connection grad Sebastian Lefeld
Congrats to Recording Connection grad
Sebastian Lefeld (Miami, FL) on his new release “Steal You Away.” Since his graduation, Sebastian has worked with numerous artists including Shawn Mendes and Santana. He wrote in to tell us about his self-produced solo project:
“It’s a pop track that has a little bit of a tropical vibe to it with a little drop. It’s pretty much just about a guy that’s in love with a girl that’s in a relationship. So it’s kind of him convincing her to to let him steal her away. So the whole track talks about that. So it’s got a little romantic side to it. But it’s got a really cool vibe to it, and I’m super, super excited about it.” Check it out on
