Professionally produced web-series Rhythms of Faith written by the international acclaimed writer Umm Zakiyyah and directed by the award-winning producer Murad Amayreh. In addition to our DeenTV staff we recruited a production crew from our target minority groups. With an entire team of over 30 people this was major operation for DeenTV. The pre production including script writing finding suitable actors for each roll location scouting production design holding casting auditions meetings etc. The actual production took over a month to complete and involved coordinating over 30 individuals who were members of cast and crew. Our Rhythms of Faith team including professionals who worked for HGTV Aljazeera CMT etc. This was a great learning experience for our junior staff to pair up with professional camera people gaffers production designers directors etc. We also had a good group of volunteers who volunteered for several needed roles such as BTS Camera Operator Production Assistant Extras etc. The earlier part of 2020 efforts focused more on competitions aimed at encouraging our viewers to learn and develop in fields that are related to film production. We had Short Film competition Short Video competitions and Monolog competitions where talented individuals submitted videos in each respective category for a prize. This highlights a shift in DeenTV's strategy to focus on more cinematic elements and encourage the development of acting skills. This led directly into the development of our latest production Lost & Striving released January 1st 2021. The film was directed by Abdul-Malik Ahmad and shot by Anas Tolba who are both award-winning artists in their respective fields. This production gave a great opportunity for young Muslim actors to show case their talent in a positive and wholesome environment. Our crew consisted of outstanding individuals who are professionals and were able to mentor some of the junior members of our team. We also had people of other faiths play various roles in the film where they were able to meet and interact with our team and learn about life as an American Muslim. The film has currently received over 100,000 views.
