The SEP Creative Incubator is a space for creators within the media and entertainment industry hoping to tell authentic stories that capture underrepresented experiences. The incubator provides support and guidance for each creative in the Incubator’s cohort through the development stage all the way to distribution.

Our support includes: financing their projects (via grant writing, crowdfunding, and/or private investment); finding legal support; assisting with strategic branding and marketing efforts; and more. Our creators are also given access to a wide variety of industry executives and professionals, ranging from film/tv executives, theater artists, agents/management, and award-winning entertainment creatives.

Snarky Elephant Productions is a production house that works on an alternative model to the industry and aims to break barriers for underrepresented stories and identities. Our content has been a finalist at Sundance, won the prestigious SFFILM Rainin Grant, and our original series INSOMNIA is now on Revry TV, the largest LGBTQ+ network in the world.
