The Youngest Candidate World Premiere: Watch the Live Stream!
by JASON POLLOCK, Causecast Leader
Today is a very big day for me. As many of you know, I wrote and directed a feature film called, The Youngest Candidate. I have been working full time on The Youngest Candidate for 3.5 years now. I can’t even believe that as I write it! 3.5 years of my life and now I have something that I’m so proud of to show for it.
The Youngest Candidate follows four electoral candidates on their campaign trails. There is Tiffany Tupper, an 18-year-old School Board Candidate from Pennsylvania. Raul De Jesus grew up in gangland and at 20 is a mayoral candidate in Hartford, Connecticut. Down the coast, Ytit Chauhan, a 19 year old that bounced around the country with his single mother, is running as a City Council Candidate in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Lastly, George Monger, raised in Memphis, Tennessee, campaigns as a City Council Candidate in his home town of 18 years. Not yet old enough to rent a car, the four candidates face social and racial barriers that coldly remind the audience how far our society has to come. Watch the Trailer here!
The premiere will take place on June 25th at 7 p.m. at the historic Majestic Crest Theater in Los Angeles, California! I have been to so many films at this theater and I simply cannot believe that I get to screen my own film there.

I also plan to use social media in new and exciting ways to help promote my film. I will integrate my 50,000 follower twitter page by using the tag #TYC. I really want to show people how influential Social Media is now in our culture so I spoke with some of my social media friends and they will be helping me the night of the premiere to make this not only a special night for the youth movement of America, but also a historic night in the life of Social Media!
I’m turning my film premiere at the Los Angeles Film Festival into an official tweet-up! This has never been done before in Twitter’s short history and I think once we pull this off this Thursday then it will be a trend that the film industry jumps on to.
