Brief Bio on myself:
Naomi Bonman started out writing songs at the age of 12/13 and then took a break for awhile. During her sophomore year of high school she had wrote out this funny, cute script/skit about her and all some of her friends just for fun. Little did she know at the time that she had a gift for writing and for potentially writing plays and films in the future because at first she wanted to be a Lawyer because she liked to argue.
So after high school graduation Naomi had completed her first stage play but didn't really do anything with it. She didn't know what she wanted to do, so she went to a community college and by her third semester of being there she joined the school newspaper and started writing for it and really enjoyed it, so she decided to start interning at bigger newspaper in town that she would always pick up at her church.
The Black Voice News(newspaper in town) is where Naomi's journalism and writing dreams begin to blossom. Naomi's writing portfolio started to grow and she was introduced to more opportunities, which is just a blessing from God.
She started to get back into writing poetry and plays & then she transferred to Clark Atlanta University in January of 2008 and started to network with more people. Since then Naomi has completed another play which is in the works to be in production by the fall of 2009 and she shot her first short film "Deceived" which was entered into the 2009 Campus Movie Fest. She is now working on another short film for BET entitled "Temptation" which is to be released by November of 2009.
So be on the look out for more works by Naomi Bonman.
Sophistication Productions is an independent production company that brings film and theater to the urban community. There are many issues that remain taboo within the black community that many African Americans tend not to want to discuss. And because of that silence, these issues just continue to worsen. As a community we have to work together and take a stand to make our voices heard. Although, Sophistication Productions points out the issues that occur within the black community, these issues also effect the whole urban community as well. Within the urban community, you will find whites, Hispanics, Asians, and a variety of other races besides African Americans.In the theater world, we need more awareness of the issues that are going in within in our communities, so that things can start to change. Change is not just going to happen over night. So with that being said, I introduce you to Sophistication Productions, which brings Sophistication within the Arts!Thank you & God Bless!
Let's let out Voices be heard,
Naomi Bonman
Founder of Sophistication Productions
