​& Frank Anderson

Directors & Founders:
​Georgia Box Office

​Presentation Title:
​"Small Budget, Big Results"
Sheena Wiley is a native of Nashville, Tennessee and graduated from Tennessee State University. She then relocated to Virginia where she quickly moved into a career in broadcast as a news camera operator. She decided that she also enjoyed being in front of the camera and producing projects, so she started producing and hosting for local shows. She has since relocated to Atlanta where she has been living for the past five years. Inspired by the entertainment boom in Georgia, Sheena was determined to be a part of the action. With the help of her husband Sheena created Georgia Box Office, a web series about the TV and film industry in Georgia.
Frank is a former Navy avionics technician with nine years of service. While serving he began learning production and created a popular video podcast-turned regional TV show.  He has been in the industry now for 14 years and is currently a motion graphics artist for Georgia Public Broadcasting and creator/producer for Georgia Box Office.  

Frank has always wanted to do film and TV and, together with his wife, Sheena,  started a video podcast about anime which quickly became one of the top 5 on iTunes with about 20,000 downloads per month. Throughout this time, Frank  was being deployed with the Navy and used his downtime to learn software and picked up new techniques. Eventually they turned the podcast into a TV show that went number one in its time slot for primetime. They are still scratching our heads on how that happened.

Ericka Gibson

Director: World Finance Group 

Presentation Title:
​"Give Your Money A Job!"
Ericka M. Gibson is a native of Michigan and a Graduate of Clark Atlanta University with a BA in Public Relations and Communications.  
She is a Financial Professional with WFG & Business Strategist and can conduct business in all 50 states plus Puerto Rico and Canada.
She believes that knowing how money works can positively impact just about every area of your life...such as Cash Flow, Debt Management, Emergency Fund, Proper Protection, Building Wealth, Preserving Wealth and Business Ownership. Whatever you do all lead back to these important areas.

Her mother heard her play a song by ear on the piano that she had heard on the radio the day before and the very next day she went and brought her a piano.  She grew up playing multiple instruments including the flute, piano, the Double Bass, autoharp, mandolin, banjo, guitar and many others. She also learned how to read and write music.
 
In addition, since her mother was an executive for a financial giant, ran her own business on the side and served on many advisory boards…she joined the groups that her mother served such as the Theatre as well as took dance classes such as tap, ballet and jazz. So much of her young life was involved in acting, dancing, singing, playing instruments and participating in pageants.
 
After attending her first concert to see New Edition and almost getting trampled…. that made her decide that the next time she went to a concert…she would be looking from the other side.....FROM THE STAGE! That decision sent her in the direction of Entertainment!  

When she noticed that it seemed to be a historical trend of artist that ended up broke, desolate or with bad contracts….she also decided that she wanted to help from the financial side.  She figured that if artist could learn about money and how it works, then they could give their money a job so that it could be protected, grow and work hard for them.  That way while they are making it…they could enjoy it, not run through it and when they decide to pursue other ventures or enjoy later in life….they are set financially…not only for themselves but their families and their legacy’s.
​
That desire thus lead her back into the financial industry that she was born and raised in, whilst keeping herself immersed in her passion for Arts and Entertainment.

​Presentation Title:
"DNA Of The Day"
After graduating with a Bachelors of Science In Digital Film & Video Production, Andy began freelancing and he has been directing music videos for artists for over 10 years.

Andy has always had a passion for film and knew what he wanted to do in high school.

He went to college for film and freelanced. Shooting videos for his friends for free lead him to shooting music videos for one of the biggest artists of the city he was living in at that time. Andy knows and understands that relationships are important.


Andy went ahead to direct a music video for Rick Ross' artist Gunplay called " Take This ".  He used a "clone effect" which enabled him to film the artist once performing, and once acting, and place them both in the same scene. The video premiered on the top box of a major online platform WorldStarHipHop and received 2 million views in a short time frame, then went on to receive another 1.5 million views on YouTube.

Relationships are key! And Andy is open to expanding my network and teaming up to help each others business grow.
