On Sunday, October 6th True Chicago held their annual True Chicago Conference at the Chicago History Museum. This Conference is dedicated to young adults who are learning about artistry, production, and professionalism in the industry. Many leaders in our community showed up and showed out for the youth who are aspiring to know what it takes to succeed in their dreams.
The conference wrapped up with keynote speaker, Coodie Simmons. Coodie is a filmmaker and screenwriter from Chicago. He gave a very informative speech on how to stay focused even when the community holds distractions. He provided insight on how his upbringing molded him into the man he is today, but also took time to reflect on how to let certain habits go to fuel his purpose in creating.
