MVMT creates from a space of innovation, exploration and engagement. Our collective work is made in order to move culture forward.

About
MVMT is a production company that creates films, series, and any form of moving images. Our work does the job of explaining who we are and what we're about.

Current MVMT projects include the web series 195 LEWIS, the feature documentary SO YOUNG SO PRETTY SO WHITE, a film about the global practice of skin bleaching and the TV channel RANDOM ACTS OF FLYNESS.

MVMT is owned and operated by Terence Nance.
Terence was born in Dallas, Texas in what was then referred to as the State-Thomas community. Nance learned personhood there. Nance's first feature film, An Oversimplification of Her Beauty, premiered at the 2012 Sundance Film Festival and was released theatrically in 2013. Nance's most recent films, Swimming in Your Skin Again and Univitillen, premiered at the 2016 Sundance Film Festival and the 2016 New York Film Festival, respectively. In 2017, Nance premiered a performance piece, 18 Black Boys Ages 1-18 Who Have Arrived at the Singularity and are Thus Spiritual Machines at Sundance. Nance is currently at work on healing, curiosity, and inter - dimensionality.

History

2004 - James Bartlett and Terence Nance started a creative collective / production company / T-shirt brand called THE FLY MOVEMENT

2005 - Terence and James met Raquel Wilson and Rolando Brown who had themselves started a created collective called THE PARALLEL MOVEMENT. Interests and spirits were aligned so the group decided to unite under the name Parallel Movement which was then a creative collective with several tentacles.

2006 - Terence, James, and Raquel aligned with Michael Cordero who came into the fold of Parallel working as a designer, filmmaker, and event producer.

2006 - 2012 - The movement came into contact with Blitz the Ambassador, who in collaboration with James and Terence created Embassy MVMT which for a time focused on releasing the music of Blitz and a selection of musicians from the diaspora.

2006 - 2015 - Parallel movement was re-branded as simply MVMT a creative collective that housed mainly the film production work of media MVMT and the music production work of Embassy MVMT. During this time several films, music videos, albums and EP's were released.

2008 - 2015 - Chanelle Aponte Pearson came aboard in an official capacity to run the operations of Media MVMT a film production company responsible for An Oversimplification of Her Beauty (produced by Pearson), and 195 Lewis (written and directed by Pearson) to name a few. Terence and Chanelle became the sole principals of this company as James had just been appointed Executive Director of MoCADA and the other former partners focused on other exciting creative interests.

2015 - present day - To hone in on our overall mission we decided to re-brand media MVMT as simply MVMT. In it's present iteration we focus solely on film, tv, and new media production.
