Hello, Sartorial Geeks! I’m so excited to introduce you all to my friend Che Grayson. 

 

Che is an incredible writer who just finished her masters degree in NYU’s film program. She’s been a TED resident, wrote for Bitch Planet, and is now working on her latest project: Magic Hour.

 

Magic Hour is a TV anthology series that features magical and mystifying stories with Queer & POC folks at the center. The show explores identity through the lens of fantasy, science-fiction and horror. 

 

Similar to Black Mirror or The Twilight Zone, each episode will be its own contained story with a beginning, middle and end. The thing that connects all of the episodes together is the occurrence of "magic hour," a time of day when everything looks freaking gorgeous or, in the show's case, a time when parallel dimensions and realities overlap and collide with each other to create remarkable stories that stretch the imagination and shock the senses. When the magic hour begins that's when the real fun starts. Each episode will explore themes like love, belonging, humanity and sacrifice. Stories that will keep you up at night, will make you think, or just creep you the hell out. Tales of robots exploring the gender binary, girls curing addictions, bigots turning into animals and femmes giving birth to celestial beings (to name a few). 

 

Does that sound like everything you’ve ever wanted? Me, too. 

 

Magic Hour needs our help to happen. There are only a few days left to join their Kickstarter campaign (which also features a few exclusive Jordandené products), so please head to magichourtv.com to pledge before it’s too late!

Have a great week and stay nerdy!

 

Special thanks to our editor + music composer Dan Ison
