LOCAL STORIES Meet Aurora Threats | The First Female To Collaborate With Ghana, AF On An Animated Short Film January 4, 2023   We had the good fortune of connecting with Aurora Threats and we’ve shared our conversation below. Hi Aurora, why did you decide to pursue a creative path? First I am so grateful to Shout Out Magazine for this wonderful opportunity to sound off. I decided to cultivate an artistic or creative career because it is that which lights a fire within me. That fire is my imagination, that fire is what allows my visualization to take me where no other pursuit has, and that fire inspires me in such a way that it inspires others.

LOCAL STORIES NOVEMBER 8, 2022 Life & Work with Aurora Threats Voyage Houston Magazine Today we’d like to introduce you to Aurora Threats. Hi Aurora, so excited to have you with us today. What can you tell us about your story? Supercilious is an award-winning short film on the International Film Festival circuit.  The short is an adaptation of one of my poems with the same epithet.  Supercilious is a beautiful story about a young Belle who was sidelined by her friends.  Belle decided to set goals for herself.  She became a winner rising above expectations.  She emerged as a graceful and successful young lady despite the obstacles that she faced.
