Lola Atkins is a scientist turned screenwriter/director under her own label EWAV Works.
Lola reached out and connected with me via Stage32.com, a filmmaker's website that brings people in the industry together from all around the world that grew tremendously during the Covid lockdown.
Lola is showcasing her first feature film 'PURPLE BEATZ' -- written and directed by her! She is truly motivated and talented-just check out her movie now available on demand @PrimeVideo -premiering today on October 25th, 2022 during the eclipse season.
After taking a hiatus to start a family, Lola restarted her film career. Her first short 'HUSH" -- won an award at the Cannes Film Festival -pushing her to commit to her talents after such a rewarding supportive festival environment.
However, the road towards a feature film was still elusive after the Cannes Film Festival award. Being at home with her kids didn't stop Lola from writing late at night as she still had many stories to tell.
As the pandemic hit the world, Lola found other filmmakers also still wanted to make movies! Lola's networking and collaboration with others on previous short films helped her to find a crew to begin filming again.
Through her tenacity and vision, Lola has created a truly entertaining movie depicting the 1990's London underground music scene known as drum&bass.
Lola casts her stars for the movie and they have now been nominated for best actors at the I WILL TELL Festival in Florida this pass week!
Congratulations to Lola and her beautiful coming of age romance film and to many many more films to come!
I have found Lola to be magnanimous as she mentors and gives back to her community!
I am truly grateful for Lola befriending me and sharing with her knowledge of filmmaking as a GoldenGuest on my podcast, AstroPod_Cast, where we connected spiritually.
