After thousands of sessions in animation, video games, and commercials, this director realized there were no Black directors. So they became one. "I'm not afraid to be the only Black person in this room." #RepresentationMatters #BlackExcellence

Designing Black hair in games is complex. Different curl patterns, locs, and cultural nuances from the Black barbershop—authentic representation matters now more than ever. #RepresentationMatters #GameDesign

Diversity shouldn't be a bad word. Privilege exists, and allies are key. How do we find ways to lift each other up and support without alienating? We can't do this work alone. #Diversity #Inclusion

Some game developers are putting REAL effort into developing hair for Black characters. Miles Morales Spider-Man? His fade is HIGH DEF. The texture is clean. They showed how they developed it! #GameDev #RepresentationMatters

Funding is often the biggest hurdle for BIPOC businesses. To overcome gatekeepers, we need to become them—creating opportunities and lifting each other up. #BIPOCBusiness #Opportunity

Weight fluctuates? Same. Character design can be tricky. We try to have diverse body types—gymnast, scientist, larger builds—to reflect real life. #BodyPositivity #CharacterDesign

Speak up! One creator shared feedback that her hairstyle was missing from the game—and the artists added it! Don't be afraid to advocate for yourself. #GameDev #RepresentationMatters

Shout out to Matthew Cherry and Monica Young, creators of Hair Love and Young Love on HBO Max. It covers the challenges and cultural references of Black hair. Authenticity matters! #BlackCulture #HairLove

Game devs: Black hair rendering isn't taught in schools, so they seek knowledge elsewhere. Tech advancements now make diverse styles more possible in character design & animation. Look around you for inspiration! #GameDev #CharacterDesign

Superheroes don't all have to be muscular and super fit. Let's show what a real Black person actually looks like, with diverse body shapes. What does it look like when a hero isn't built that way? #BodyPositivity #RepresentationMatters

Representation matters! Seeing Afro-Latino characters like Miles Morales in media isn't just cool—it's validating and healing for many. More stories, please! #AfroLatino #RepresentationMatters

Game devs wanted diverse body types for athletic characters, using Olympic athletes as reference. CEO said no. Limiting and boring! All body types should be represented. #GameDev #BodyPositivity
