Mastermind Studios awarded grant for work with emerging hip-hop artist
KAMLOOPS — A local film production company has been awarded the Telus STORYHIVE grant for their work with an up and coming artist.
Executive Producer and President of Mastermind Studios, Peter Cameron-Inglis says the 10 thousand dollar grant was given for their work in developing a concept music video with an emerging hip hop artist.
“The artist that we chose to work with is a gentlemen by the name of K.A.S.P,” Cameron-Inglis explains, “He’s a hip hop artist, and his day job is working with at-risk youth, and he’s a motivational speaker, and works with street youth.”
K.A.S.P has been on the music scene for more than a decade, and Cameron-Inglis says, as an Aboriginal hip-hop artist, his work has not hit the mainstream yet.
