We are set to start shooting the film in August 2013 and complete the post production process by November 2013. The goal is to launch the film in time for Black History month in February 2014.  

Short Summary

My name is Shandell Maxwell, a resident of Tustin California and the writer/director of Black Behind the Orange Curtain.  I have a sincere passion for serving my community and raising awareness on social issues that impact our community.  I am also the founder of Captured Innocence, DBA which is a multimedia and consulting company based in Orange County, California. I have lived and attended school in Los Angeles County, Riverside County and Orange County, and I have experienced the cultural difference amongst each county.

I felt it necessary to develop a not-for-profit film that provides a platform for the African-American community to share their stories about living behind the infamous “orange curtain” in hopes of raising awareness at a community and national level.
