Beautiful as I want to be
Transgender model Geena Rocero has joined forces with the cable network Logo to produce a video series which will highlight transgender young people. The series will be called Beautiful as I Want to Be and will consist of four part episodes which will be introduced by Rocero and "focus on partnering young trans people with successful trans leaders to explore how they define beauty and identity. Young trans people share their backstories, their identity journeys and their dreams for the future. Their mentor/coach then readies them for a transformative photo shoot and offers life advice."
I am excited to share with trans youth the ways that I’ve used modeling and art to creatively express myself and to realize my dreams. This project is to affirm our youth’s potential, their beauty and the possibilities when we celebrate and allow them to be their most authentic selves.
The web series will be directed by Raul Gasteazoro and produced by Rocero and Allie Hoffman of Gender Proud, together with Jonathon Mallow and Sarah De Filippis of Logo. The series will premier October 28 and appear on LogoTV.com, NewNowNext.com and Logo's YouTube channel.
