TALLAHASSEE, FL — April 2, 2026 — Creators Multimedia Group (CMG) has announced a high-profile VIP Premiere Experience for the highly anticipated Michael biopic on Wednesday, April 22, 2026, at the Challenger Learning Center IMAX. This charitable event serves as a strategic “creative response” to recent economic shifts and budget cuts that have impacted the local creative workforce.

For years, CMG has hosted the Annual Creator Summit, Tallahassee’s flagship digital media and creative infrastructure conference. In an intentional effort to sustain this vital infrastructure, proceeds from the Michael premiere will directly fund the 2026 Creator Summit, as well as specialized creative workforce programming. Upcoming initiatives include Advanced Drone Technology Workshops and masterclasses focused on the Creator Economy—including User-Generated Content (UGC) strategy, securing high-value brand deals, and digital monetization.

“We aren’t just showing a film; we are building an engine for our community,” says Roberto ‘RJ’ Singleton, President of CMG. “As many of our traditional supporters face budget constraints, we are getting intentional with our partnerships. This premiere is about a mutual commitment to serving Tallahassee. By prioritizing creative wellness and professional networking, we are ensuring that our city’s creative class doesn’t just survive this economic deficit—but leads the way out of it.”
