BERNARD WILLIAMS
The Kid Who Proved Them Wrong
Video Production Intern, Bernard Williams, also known affectionately as "The Kid Who Proved Them Wrong" is on a mission to, well...prove them wrong.
Having spent all 18 years of his life at a single address in Compton, CA, Bernard is now experiencing life outside of "Hub City" for the first time ever as a resident in the dorms of The University of California, Northridge where he is currently earning his bachelors degree in Cinema and Television Arts- Entertainment Media Management.
Determined to change the narrative about his community through creative projects, Bernard has been focused on creative business development and marketing strategy during his internship with #theXPbrand, and is currently looking to secure an internship focused on video production. With a passion for visual storytelling and novice experience in video editing, Bernard is eager to contribute while learning from a talented and experienced team.

Prove Them Wrong Creative Series Production Costs Fundraiser
"I created this shirt as a return on the investment for anyone who believes in me.
I didn't want to launch a GoFundMe where people give and get nothing in return.
Production costs are temporary barriers for me to make my dream a reality, but I know my community has my back.
I'm eager to expose a different perspective of our city, a perspective that is very real to me and others like me.
Thank you for your support."
- B. Williams
