More About Us & the Creator
"The only thing that separates women of color from anyone else, is opportunity" -Viola Davis
Our mission is to tell great, creative, and innovative ideas, while implementing diversity on all sides of the camera. From script to screen, we collaborate with unknown and underrepresented talents, because we know how hard breaking into the industry is. We believe everyone deserves a fair shot. We pride ourselves in storytelling that holds a mirror to society and serves as a call to action. Yellow Rain Productions was founded by Sabrina Lassegue, at 19 years old. As a black woman in film, she believes in doing everything it takes to provide the world with good, meaningful story telling, while providing the representation the world deserves to see.
Sabrina Lassegue is an actress, director, model, content creator, producer, writer, pageant girl and advocate. She trained at the American Musical Dramatic Academy for acting. Lassegue is best known for her award winning short film on human trafficking, "For the Taken" as well as her film, "Along Came Sundae" which tackles domestic abuse. Sabrina focuses on stories that amplify women's voices and raise awareness on sexual assault and trafficking. As a survivor herself, Sabrina is part of the RAINN speakers bureau and the Miss USA family and has spent the past 2 years passing bills for survivors of sexual assault in congress and the RISE Justice Lab. Excited to create opportunities for other underrepresented creatives, Lassegue launched the company, along with a mentorship program.
