Atlanta is known as the “Hollywood of the South,” and WABE’s podcast “The Boom” takes a weekly look at our growing television and film industry.
Our “City Lights” series “Speaking of ‘The Boom‘” amplifies the voices of local professionals who keep Atlanta’s moving picture business booming.
This episode highlights Atlanta actor and producer Adetinpo Thomas.
“My favorite part of being an actor and a producer is being able to participate in storytelling,” said Thomas.
“So much of this art form is about mirroring the human condition and I feel like honesty and compassion is a huge part of that. And the opportunity to give someone a chance to watch a life and an experience that they don’t have and find similarity in it is an opportunity to build empathy in someone else. Love that!”
