Our Values
“We don’t want to bring Hollywood to Tulsa, we want to bring Tulsa to the world.”
Muhammed W Qadar (Founder)
We believe in the power of film and understand that it has the power to change perspectives, reach global minds and connect with our neighbors on a human level. Before tourism, economic boost, or world class companies appear in a city, a strong independent creative class needs to be established and feel supported. With this in mind, our work aims to innovate and redefine the role of a creative class in society. The purpose of our projects are to activate imagination and innovation, in places long overlooked. Starting one city at a time.

Starting one city at a time.
We study each city’s history and engage in meaningful dialogue with local communities and businesses to gain a deeper understanding of its unique identity. This approach enables us to develop informed strategies and uncover opportunities rooted in the city’s DNA and spirit. We understand many American cities deal with complicated pasts that still deeply affect morale and challenges faced in populations. At WAMN, none of our projects work by hiding a city’s history. Instead, we foster intercultural and interfaith dialog to create and embody a fresh identity. One that produces top talent, businesses and great purposeful humans. We create by honoring the past, while working locally and globally towards a vibrant new future.
