Harrison\/March\u00a0\u00a06, 2018\/6:09 pm<\/p>\n<p>New York, NY&#8230;&#8230; Her company is Revolution Media &amp; MBS Films.\u00a0It \u00a0has been in operation since 2010.\u00a0 Its make up\u00a0is consist of \u00a0Radio, Social Media , Film and a news Portal.\u00a0 And its bases can be found in New York and New Jersey.\u00a0\u00a0Charlotte Renee Capers, <strong>CR Capers<\/strong>,\u00a0is founder and owner of this independent company,\u00a0\u00a0who stands 5ft tall.\u00a0 She is fascinating\u00a0and has an\u00a0intriguing personality.\u00a0 She&#8217;s also,\u00a0a very out spoken individual who&#8217;s not\u00a0afraid to speak candidly about the ills of our society. \u00a0Recently, I sat with Ms. Capers to learn more about her and the future\u00a0 of her company. The <em>Savann Restaurant<\/em>, in Harlem serve\u00a0our purpose\u00a0.<\/p>\n<p>At first sight, we chatted like old friends,\u00a0about Harlem, Religion and other societal matters. In essence we clicked, after-words the quest was to dig in with some hard questions; of which the first was how\u00a0\u00a0her brand\u00a0new media company,\u00a0 in business for 5-years\u00a0\u00a0 leveraging social media to change narratives?<\/p>\n<p>According to Capers,\u00a0 &#8220;When it come to the Media there is only a small skew, but with the internet black people in particular have the power to tell the stories the way they want to reveal it. All that&#8217;s needed is the opportunity and ingenuity to do so.\u00a0&#8221;\u00a0More to the point, Caper voiced that social media is the ultimate word of mouth and you are meeting people worldwide. She says you can met people with one post and that they can share it with their friends and they share it with their friends and so on. Social Media she quipped gives people a choice, she said it is powerful and gives social injustice a platform.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The company&#8217;s claim to fame\u00a0is a\u00a0popular radio show and podcast showcase \u00a0&#8220;<em><strong>Why You Mad Son,&#8221; <\/strong><\/em>a program that reaches over 3 million listeners worldwide and has a loyal fan base in the hip-hop culture.<\/p>\n<p>Her\u00a0inclination on\u00a0a black woman running a media platform is that she learned a lot. &#8220;I have learned that as a black woman in the United States, you have to be better, \u00a0as a black woman in business. You have to be five times better and always pay people for their time. The key is making sure that you make people know that you appreciate them. And there has to be sinewy,&#8221; said Capers.<\/p>\n<p>Capers is one of a few black women in New York, who runs their own film company that is IMDb certified. She writes, directs, produces and shoots her company&#8217;s films. The astute young woman went to Baruch college\u00a0and\u00a0SUNY Pittsburgh there, she took up Broadcast Journalism. It was while here she got an opportunity to\u00a0direct and made an over the top trailer, which everyone loved; it was here that she found her calling to the film industry.\u00a0 She said, &#8220;I did not see finishing college has a plus or minus. I worked for Jet Aviation, Credit Risk Management and Credit Complaints, where I made six-figures. Capers is now 44-years old.<\/p>\n<p>When asked if she was showing underserve filmmakers a different way to produce films;? she states, &#8220;We are not showing underserve filmmakers a different way to make films, they have to just tell a different story. We are more than the norm, the sky is the limit and we have stories to tell other than&#8230;Drugs, Money, Sex, and Violence. We are better than that.&#8221; Here again she contends that opportunity is all that&#8217;s needed.\u00a0 Looking toward 2016 and\u00a0the company&#8217;s \u00a0up coming Film festival, she revealed that when she first started the <em><strong>Hip-Hop Film Festival NYC<\/strong>,<\/em> and looked into it, she founded that it was a scam. So, she decided to do it herself for the people.<\/p>\n<p>According to Capers, how her Film Festival will work is, people will submit their Film and pay a fee of $30 or $50, for the website and features, and whatever profit it makes, her company will split or share the profits from the Film Festival with the individual or entity who submitted the film. If that individual or entity doesn&#8217;t get selected; their Film will still get to run on the\u00a0 Revolution website. She said that the hold thing is set up like a regular Film Festival.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I see my company three-years from now progressing; especially, the film festival that deals with our people in Hip-Hop that transcend race. I also see it more support, as far as community; any profit I make will go to the community out reach programs or individual who needs the help, especially in Harlem.<\/p>\n<p>Thus far, under her\u00a0vision and watchful eye, MBS Films has garnered three short films: &#8220;Swagmella,&#8221;\u00a0 &#8220;Celie&#8217;s Revenge,&#8221; &#8220;Cabin in the Hood.&#8221;\u00a0 One web series: &#8220;Mad On The Street&#8221; and Two Documentaries: Hell Up In Harlem -Stop Another Violent End and a NYCHA Film (In development) shining a spotlight on the NYC Housing Authority, the people it serve, the culture and the Government&#8217;s orchestration of low-income housing, known as projects. This up and coming media leader, also has a feature film <em>Six Madmen,<\/em>\u00a0in production.<\/p>\n<p>CR Capers is the middle child of Andrew and Helen Capers. She has an older sister Kim and a younger brother Christopher. She is the mother of Taylor Helena Armstead, the light of her life. Caper was married for 5-years but it ended because of domestic violence. Capers doesn&#8217;t see herself as a victim but a survivor, an advocate and supporter of all domestic abuse victims. She volunteers with Harlem Mothers Save, a group of parents who lost their children to gun violence and the Hip-Hop Cultural Center, an organization that creates positive programming for youth with hip-hop as the backdrop.<\/p>\n<p>Capers\u00a0was recently\u00a0 named Senior Director of Business Development and Media Strategy for the Hip-Hop Cultural Center&#8217;s RapACon.\u00a0 She will also be honored at he &#8220;Unlock Your Dreams&#8221; conference in NYC. As\u00a0for her community activism and her ability to galvanize and motivate millions\u00a0on social media she has done that.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bundiblog.com\/blog\/2018\/03\/08\/revolution-media-a-company-on-the-move\/crcapers_onset\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2371\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2371\" src=\"https:\/\/bundiblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/CRCapers_OnSet-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"CRCapers_OnSet\" width=\"215\" height=\"215\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bundiblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/CRCapers_OnSet-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bundiblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/CRCapers_OnSet-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/bundiblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/CRCapers_OnSet.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 215px) 100vw, 215px\" \/><\/a>\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/bundiblog.com\/blog\/2018\/03\/08\/revolution-media-a-company-on-the-move\/crcapers_headphones\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2372\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2372\" src=\"https:\/\/bundiblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/CRCapers_HeadPhones-209x300.jpg\" alt=\"CRCapers_HeadPhones\" width=\"152\" height=\"218\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bundiblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/CRCapers_HeadPhones-209x300.jpg 209w, https:\/\/bundiblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/CRCapers_HeadPhones-714x1024.jpg 714w, https:\/\/bundiblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/CRCapers_HeadPhones.jpg 867w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 152px) 100vw, 152px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CR CAPERS FOUNDER By: Editor C.
