Creator Profile
I am thrilled to introduce Jendayi, who is an award-winning documentary film maker based in New York City, USA. Their work features underrepresented communities and shares community stories.
Q: What is your best piece of advice for creators?
A: Just start doing it. It doesn't need to be perfect, and you can improve it as you go. 70% done is better than 0% done.
Q: What made you want to join XOTV?
A: I love the personalized guidance for creators and the community XOTV builds.
Q: What's something you wish more people knew about you?
A: I started off as a poet and actually wanted to publish a poetry book when I was 14. I was determined to be the next Maya Angelou. And then one day, a camera fell on my head, and I became a documentary filmmaker. At least that is how I remember it.
