BLACK SANDS
ENTERTAINMENT INC.
The Company was established in 2016 to develop a comic book series
called Kids 2 Kings. After a successful Kickstarter campaign, the
company focused on an animated pilot to pitch to studios. It was
during this wildly popular time that Black Sands Entertainment
secretly worked on two different series titled Sons of Nibiru and
Mori's Family Adventures. After successfully funding Mori's Family
Adventures on Kickstarter, the company launched their online
marketing strategy during Black Friday of 2017. Within 120 days, the
company sold over 10,000 books to African-American families all
across the country and have been featured at many events on the Eart
Coast. The company has received awards such a Hollywood
Just4Shortz film festival selection, and the 4th best indie comic series
of 2017, according to Bleeding Cool. The company now seeks to raise
the funds for a fully animated DVD on Kickstarter, starting May 1st.
They have released 5 titles so far and expect to release 2 more in the
next couple of months.
