Mission Statement

Sporas, from diasporas, is a collective of cinematographers and film technicians dedicated to supporting and uplifting film workers of color around the world. We understand ourselves as cultural historians and agitators for change. We bring the politics of our personal experiences and collective lives into the making of images. Our aim is to revolutionize the industry and ensure it reflects and supports cultural, racial, and intersectional diversity. To that end, we are enlisting film companies, agencies, and brands to support our efforts and commit to structural change in their hiring, financing, and producing practices. http://instagram.com/sporasco
