About Tri Destined Studios
Tri Destined Media Enterprises was founded in 1998 to produce independent films that reflect urban America. The company’s founders felt that there was a void of multi-cultural films and television programming reflecting all socioeconomic factions of Urban America. Thus, the company’s vision was to make projects that empowered, employed, and exposed under-represented talent and demographics to the world; making sure that each culture could see themselves in the world they were creating. Since its inception, Tri Destined Media Enterprises, Inc. has grown from being one Hollywood film production company trying to make a difference into a full In-House Production and Distribution Studio capable of producing, financing and distributing all forms of entertainment and New Media.
