Under the Capes Episode 17 Movers and Shakers UnlimitedWhat does it take to become an innovator and icon within an industry? That’s what the new series Movers and Shakers Unlimited will seek to answer. Created by Jerome Bourgeois and Brandon Troy, the goal of the series is to provide insight for aspiring entrepreneurs and artists to discover what it takes to join a particular field of interest and become successful at it.

He brings a lot of cool stories and insight because he started his career in the film industry early on as a child actor in films such as “Louisville” and “Mars Attacks,” and the Showtime series, “Linc’s.” He also has experience as a director, writer, & editor and has been an entertainment reporter for various outlets.
