Welcome to the New Hollywood Generation!
The New Hollywood Generation (NHG) is a vibrant community dedicated to empowering young filmmakers, artists, and content creators in today’s rapidly evolving entertainment landscape. Founded by National Emmy® Award-winning and nominated designer, author, and multimedia producer Orlando Delbert, NHG provides guidance, resources, and mentorship to a diverse, global community of creators determined to succeed through innovation, collaboration, and ethical business practices.
NHG focuses on embracing emerging technologies and storytelling methods to democratize the entertainment industry, empowering creatives to take control of their own narratives and careers. This involves strategic thinking inspired by Sun Tzu’s timeless Art of War, and practical applications of philosophical wisdom, stoicism, resilience, and adaptability. NHG encourages creators to see their craft not merely as art, but as valuable products and brands that deserve both artistic respect and strategic marketing.
The principles behind NHG emerged from Orlando’s extensive career and firsthand experiences navigating the often harsh, exploitative realities of Hollywood and the broader entertainment industry. He recognized early on that a lack of guidance often led talented creatives into toxic cycles of exploitation and self-sabotage. His mission became clear: break these cycles by promoting a healthy, realistic, and strategic approach to filmmaking and content creation. NHG’s philosophy emphasizes the importance of self-awareness, personal mastery, and an understanding of power dynamics and human nature. It encourages creators to develop practical skills in negotiation, communication, and emotional intelligence. NHG strongly believes that fostering these skills will help emerging artists recognize and navigate difficult situations, ensuring their career sustainability, creative autonomy, and personal dignity.
Under NHG’s umbrella, Orlando authored Pollyanna’s Tear Soaked Battlefields of Hollywood: A Survival Guide Against the Cynicism and the Hypocritical, a candid exploration of the entertainment industry’s complexities, hypocrisies, and opportunities for meaningful success. He continues to expand the NHG library to address contemporary topics including AI-driven production, immersive filmmaking, virtual production workflows, game theory, critical thinking, and navigating creative entrepreneurship in the digital age.
