Tricky Ink Productions was created in 2017 by Morgan Hamilton-Lee. Through his decade-long career of filmmaking, he has worked in nearly every aspect of film, starting as an Actor and Director, and now focusing on Producing and Casting. He’s directed over 30 short films, a feature, and a web series.

Now, Morgan is dedicated to helping other artists tell their stories and educating up-and-coming filmmakers, hosting networking events, running a newsletter and Discord community, and curating actor and crew recommendation databases to connect creatives across the industry

We have curated an hour long program of locally made short films, focusing on underrepresented communities, including the premiere of “How to Eat an Elephant,” the first short film made under Tricky Ink Productions' Training Ground Films initiative. With this initiative, our team selects a script to produce once a quarter, out of nationwide submission, highlighting underrepresented communities. We implement a unique on-set mentorship hierarchy, designed to help emerging filmmakers and film students get hands on experience on a real film set.

Doors open at 7, program starts at 7:30, with a brief Q&A with the directors after the screening. We will also be talking more about the initiative and making an exciting announcement.
