Peachtree Village International Film Festival (PVIFF) Red Carpet B.O.S.S. hit the scene in Atlanta for this year’s Peachtree Village International Film Festival. Check out the pictures of who was there and what they had to say about EDUCATION!

“Education is very important. You have to know how to read your script. Math is also very important. When you get those checks you want to make sure it is the right number. Education plays a big role in the entertainment industry. It’s important to have that knowledge.” - Camille Winbush, actress

“Everything in this business (entertainment) is communication and information. Every contract is unique and has specific terms. If you are able to communicate effectively, read and comprehend, and do math, you can make it further without getting totally ripped off.”Special Ed, Hip Hop Pioneer

“It took me going to The Julliard School and majoring in music to learn music theory and how to stack vocals... While I was at Julliard, I got the call to sing background for Chaka Khan. Had I not learned how to do those things, going to sing professionally for someone who was wonderful and famous in my eyes, I would have not known what to do. Education is a blessing.” – Meli’sa Morgan, singer
