Evelyn Ngugi, or “Evelyn From the Internets,” the popular Texan YouTuber known for her funny, honest and refreshing monologues about everything from pop culture to politics, all with a comedic twist.
With over 200,000 subscribers on Youtube and a 60K+ followers on social media platforms such is Instagram —to say she’s been successful would be an understatement.
Her first short film "Hello, Tim" won the Excellence In Comedy Award at Toronto's 2019 Buffer Festival, and she co-hosted and wrote Say It Loud, a PBS Digital Studios show about Black histories and cultures.
Being a successful multi-media creator & filmmaker requires a creative toolbox, skills, and passion.
How do you take something like Youtube and grow your audience?
How do you create content that is meaningful to you for social platforms?
What type of gear do you need or programs do you use?
These questions are some of the very topics we'll be exploring next Thursday with the talented creator and YOU’RE INVITED!
We’re so excited to get that chance to meet up (virtually) with Evelyn for a chat centered around engaging the community, growing your platform, and honing in on your creative skills.
This is interactive hang is part of Austin School of Film’s newest program PLAY AT HOME . Not your “typical” zoom experience— our events, talks, and lessons are interactive, much like our in-person classes! You talk and experience our events virtually with fellow attendees, artists, and filmmakers from all around the globe.
We’ve hosted 600+ people through 20 events throughout May and a handful of upcoming events are now live & ready for registration. Austin School of Film has an exciting roster of new releases in the works like a free mini workshop centered around experimental editing techniques and an interactive chat with award-winning documentarian filmmaker Matthew Koshmrl . You can stay up-to-date on new events by following us on Instagram or joining our weekly newsletter.
This space, our organization, and the people behind it, strongly believe in the importance of fostering, supporting, and creating space for all. Holding space to learn, connect, and create. Encouraging each of you to be active participants in shaping our culture.
PLAY AT HOME was born as a direct response to the ongoing pandemic. While in-person classes, programs, and services are on pause —we hope this program inspires and builds a space without borders or barriers.
Until we can meet again, we’ll see you in cyberspace!
