We were lucky to catch up with Kameesha Pascoe recently and have shared our conversation below.

Kameesha, thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today Learning the craft is often a unique journey from every creative – we’d love to hear about your journey and if knowing what you know now, you would have done anything differently to speed up the learning process.

Developing and learning your craft isn’t a process that you can rush. It is essentially a slow sporadic process that can go every direction before the destination. To be able to know what I am doing in the creative space, I spent most of my time researching— never went to film or acting school but had a burning passion to learn more. With a background in Business Administration and Communication, I bring both strategic and people-centered training from my time at William Peace University. You see… Unlike school there’s no schedule, nobody clawing down your throat about deadlines. Both screenwriting and modeling demand vulnerability, understand your own emotions and reading others’—is key to authentic characters and compelling visual storytelling. Without a clear roadmap or consistent mentorship, learning often happens through trial and error. Opportunities, feedback, and industry exposure aren’t always readily available.

As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?

Funny thing, the journey didn’t begin as a creative. Originally, I had the dream and passion to be a professional basketball player growing up until that all shifted. With a background in Business Administration and Communication from William Peace University. Still holding on the dream as a athlete, I went overseas to play basketball and I realized in that moment that I wanted to embark onto something more- something more sustainable and so I dived head first . With time it took me to get the right footing and understand the scope of this business- starting my career originally in the modeling world from young. I didn’t know understand fully the dynamic . Making the transition over to screenwriting and newly launching my production company, “Onism Films” in which we develop, and produce films . I am most proud of my work ethic and my ability to pivot despite any obstacle that succumbs. I want people to know that Onism Films isn’t just a company but it is building block into something great as our center focus is to tell stories that resonates and make a long lasting impact forever.

What can society do to ensure an environment that’s helpful to artists and creatives?

Support is gold when it comes to being a artist/ creative trying to navigate in the creative space because that is your bread and butter . Being a creative is not a easy task at to endure as for most there are more rough days before you see the light at the end of the tunnel . This industry runs on visibility. The gap between underground and mainstream artists isn’t necessarily skill — it’s exposure. Strategic festival placements, curated screenings, and intentional networking are what elevate talent from niche recognition to broad market awareness.

What’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative in your experience?

It is receiving appreciation after all those long, tired , dragged out days and to finally see the vision that was formed in your head now come to life . Though at times, it can get a bit overwhelming, it is that day of gratification that feels the most enjoyable.
