Carlos Ponce Honored with Lifetime Achievement Award at GALIFF

Carlos Ponce receives Pepe Serna Lifetime Achievement Award at Georgia Latino Film Festival for his entertainment career and Minivela platform revolutionizing Latino digital storytelling.

This recognition highlights the growing importance of Latino representation in media and the evolving landscape of digital storytelling. As streaming platforms continue to reshape entertainment consumption, Minivela's micro-shorts model represents an innovative approach to reaching younger Latino audiences who increasingly consume content through social media and digital platforms. The award underscores how established artists like Ponce are leveraging their influence to create new opportunities for emerging Latino creators, ensuring authentic cultural narratives reach wider audiences. This matters because it demonstrates the ongoing transformation of media distribution and the critical need for diverse storytelling that reflects the experiences of Latino communities in the United States and beyond.
