BLACK VINE NETWORK
WHAT HAPPENS
TO THE STORY
AFTER THE
FESTIVAL ENDS?
BLACK VINE NETWORK WAS BUILT TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION.
Running a film festival showed Tanecia Britt how much powerful independent work could find an audience for a moment and then lose a clear path forward. Production taught her how to make the work. Enterprise streaming taught her how content is structured, delivered, discovered and maintained at scale. Black Vine Network was built to connect those worlds.
A founder-led media and cultural technology ecosystem. The Experience Agency is the official creative agency powering its creative direction and execution.
THE GAP FROM BOTH SIDES.
01 FESTIVAL
DMV INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL
Running a film platform exposed a recurring challenge: independent stories could earn attention during a festival window without gaining consistent distribution, audience continuity or a durable commercial life afterward.
02 PRODUCTION
MAKING THE WORK
Tanecia’s production experience built the practical knowledge required to move a project from idea through crews, schedules, production, post and delivery.
03 ENTERPRISE STREAMING
MOVING THE WORK
Through enterprise streaming and content operations, including Verizon Digital Media Services and successor environments, Tanecia worked across metadata, publishing, VOD/SVOD workflows, quality control, digital delivery and complex content supply chains.

BVN ORIGINALS
TWO ANCHOR SERIES. TWO DIFFERENT STORY WORLDS.
Black Vine Network's original-programming strategy begins with owned scripted IP designed to establish distinct creative worlds, build audience relationships and create long-term value beyond a single release. The current slate is anchored by comedy and drama.
COMEDY • ORIGINAL SERIES • BVN ORIGINAL
The Buffer is Black Vine Network's anchor scripted drama series. Created, written and directed by Tanecia Britt, the series is rooted in Prince George's County and explores youth safety, family, trauma, resilience, public trust and community accountability.
ORIGINAL IP ↓ DEVELOPMENT ↓ PRODUCTION ↓ POST ↓ AUDIENCE ↓ DISTRIBUTION + EXTENSION
Together, Green Ivory and The Buffer demonstrate BVN's intention to build a scripted slate rather than depend on a single title. Original programming creates intellectual property, cultural relevance and story worlds that can move through the larger Black Vine Network ecosystem.
WHY BLACK VINE NETWORK IS HERE.
Black Vine Network is one of the clearest examples of Tanecia Britt’s ability to move beyond creating a single piece of content and build the creative, production and operating system around an idea. The Experience Agency serves as the official creative agency powering Black Vine Network, translating that founder-led vision across brand, original content, campaigns, production, publicity, experiences and ongoing creative development. Black Vine Network remains its own platform and ecosystem.
