All great projects begin with a vision: a vision for what is possible. With Black World Studios, that vision began to take shape years ago under the leadership of Sam David who wanted to create an environment for creatives so extraordinary that the business world would come to that conclusion on its own.
Currently heading up a high-profiled aggressive campaign to raise substantial investment funding for Black World Studios' in-house TV and film projects, Sam's breaking down gender barriers to bring diversified projects to television, radio, film, and Broadway: from scripts, screenplays, stage plays, literary adaptations for television and motion picture, to ground-breaking documentary projects, newspaper syndication, and book publishing on all sorts of subject matters.
Starting from humble beginnings with no economic advantage, Sam consistently distinguished herself by stepping into a man's role as an innovator, shattering records and setting new standards by balancing out multi-hyphenated careers in predominately male-dominated environments: from establishing herself as a persistent and tenacious unconventional cross-over talent manager/agent with theatrical, literary, variety arts, and sports management experience; as a newspaper entertainment columnist, an award-winning publisher, and as editor-in-chief of a critically acclaimed publication. Sharp-sighted with political savvy, business proficiency, and marketing mastery, through the years Sam has effectively utilized the dynamics of power, organization, and judicious decision-making to carve out significant specialty niches in life. Navigating the business end of the entertainment business has always been her true passion; it has long been her metier. www.SamDavidManagement.com
As an astute negotiator imbued with moral principles, Sam David has sat on numerous boards for county, civic, and nonprofit organizations where she has maintained a strong presence in the community, known for her campaigns for social change and deep respect for diversity and tolerance. A lifelong social activist with a leading voice in Black talent and LGBTQ management and negotiations, she brought an off-the-grid vision to fruition that gives birth to diversified entertainment projects and their creative and strategic growth.
With skill and a strong sense of perspicacity, Sam has focused on essential direction, redirection, and reinvention management; strategic business operations, productions; and domestic and international financial sourcing. Operating behind the scenes, she works the global market, from branding and licensing and distribution, to handling negotiations in TV, film, radio, stage, sports, music; television, newspaper, and magazine syndication; and publishing.
Always open to talking with (and meeting with) qualified investors under a cloak of confidentiality, major corporate sponsors and donors can help subsidize and/or sponsor Black World Studio's original content, and TV and film projects. Equally important, all companies and corporations can exceed their high-profiled diversity marketing goals and quotas by sponsoring our groundbreaking, one-of-a-kind TV scripted and unscripted programming projects. Working directly with each advertiser, Sam assists in developing a unique marketing twist that will convey a clear understanding of how value is created by getting sponsored products into many hard-to-reach diversified and under-served markets.
Production Risks
Any investment in the production of a big screen or a small screen or creative stage project is extremely speculative; like most investments, entertainment projects usually involve a high degree of financial risk. There can be no assurance of the economic success of any TV, film, or documentary project. That said, Black World Studios will qualify only accredited investors who fully understand this risk.
The cost of developing and producing any entertainment project is often a long journey and may be increased by reasons or factors beyond the control of the producers. The mounting costs of developing and producing big-and-small screen projects are often greatly underestimated. And yet, there is a steady stream of national and international investors — dedicated professional investors — who love the business of TV and movie-making and diligently invest in all sorts of speculative diversity-driven entertainment projects.
Gratefully acknowledging the dedication and support from investors and sponsors, for those who wish to back our entertainment projects anonymously, we will always respect your privacy.
