About The Project

Millennials live in a world where we're told to dream big and work hard. We keep climbing that crazy sand dune of sucess while working 3 part time jobs just to get by. Growing up, we were convinced that we're all strong, special, sparkly unicorns who could be whoever or whatever we wanted when we grew up. Meanwhile, we need three years of unpaid experience for that entry level position and all we've got is a pantry full of Top Ramen, staggering debt and unshakable dreams. In a world like this, you have three options: keep rolling the dice, give up, or find a shortcut.

#Posers is the story of Akiko Komensky, Nori Givens, and Gabby Fischer: three big dreamers who play by the rules. Exhausted with their unfulfilling lives, they decide to let loose for one night when they find themselves face to face with a short cut to the top. In other words, the girls drunkenly go VIRAL.

The power of going viral or any bout of sudden luck or fame presents an interesting question: Is a "short cut" selling out or is it merely an opportunity? With the power of social media at their fingertips, the girls become a shining example of "faking it 'til you make it." They convince the world they are hip hop queens and adapt to their new-found fame one hilarious trial and error at a time. From learning how to write rap songs and impress bigwig producers to practicing the proper use of the words "fleek" and "swagger," the girls are presented with plenty of ridiculous challenges along the way.

#Posers is a quirky blend of "Clueless" meets "Entourage" and "Flight of the Conchords" with an unapolagetic kiss of "Broad City". It's a story of taking chances, having fun and discovering what kind of unexpected greatness lies within when you're willing to try a new path and fall on your face.

The Team

Current Team

About This Team

We are LA based actresses, writers and hip-hop music enthusiasts. After bonding over our love of junk food, gangster rap and comedy, we wrote a parody music video to one of our favorite Ice Cube tracks ("It was a Good Day").

"It was a Cheat Day" was featured on Funny or Die's YouTube channel. We also took home the Viewers Choice Award at the NewFilmmakers LA film festival in October 2015.

After realizing that we might have a career in combining comedy and gangster rap after all, we decided it was time to create and produce our passion project, #Posers!
