The studio celebrated its collaborations with Latino Film Institute and LA Collab at a Latino Heritage & Culture event on Oct. 3 at Neuehouse.

“After two decades of building the pipeline from our community into Hollywood, we are excited that Amazon Studios is supporting our work with the Youth Cinema Project,” Olmos said in a statement. Only together will we be able to create Hollywood’s multicultural future.”JC Olivera/Amazon Studios

With LA Collab, Amazon is helping the nonprofit build networking platform LTX Match, to help Latinos at all levels within the entertainment industry find jobs, mentorship, capital and community. “It is time to put the incredible tech innovation that exists today to help fix the broken bridge between Hollywood and our Latino creative community not finding each other,” LA Collab co-founder Beatriz Acevedo said in a statement. “With LTX Match, we aim to connect our community with access to make sure that we have equal opportunity to thrive in Hollywood.”

The two community organizations came together with the studio Monday evening at Neuehouse to celebrate Latino Heritage & Culture, an event hosted by Olmos and Latasha Gillespie, global head of DEIA for Amazon Studios, Freevee and IMDb. “As we strive to be a global entertainment destination, we acknowledge the power and importance of Latino audiences. In order to tell their rich and dynamic stories authentically, we need their skills and creative power both in front of and behind the camera,” Gillespie said in a statement. “Partnering with LFI and LA Collab is not a charitable endeavor, it is an equitable endeavor. It is our responsibility to remove barriers and open doors so everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
