November’s “Scopesgiving” edition of Scope Screenings at LANGSTON in Seattle's Central District was flowing with the weight of gratitude for artistic excellence, creative community, and inspiration through darkness. Converge Media premiered the trailer for the upcoming documentary “Diamond of Opportunity,” following the immense impact of the Mariners Care Foundation and its programs that have literally transformed the lives of youth around the country. 

Mathew Bermudez, a producer of “Diamond of Opportunity,” expressed the significance of working on the documentary at a pivotal moment in both the Mariners’ history and the team’s growing community. To Bermudez, his role as a producer is to help tell those stories and highlight the individuals behind the local impact in Seattle and beyond. 

Other creatives featured included Aryana León, Kai Watson, Jordan McGrath, Paul Sanders, and Vee Hua. León said she found it beautiful to see underrepresented voices in one building bonds in one unifying artistic space. Watson stressed the importance of being authentic and leading with emotion, love, and passion—all things he said new technology can’t replicate.

The final Scope Screenings of 2025 is happening TOMORROW, Tuesday, Dec. 30 from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. at LANGSTON, 104 17th Ave S, Seattle. Get your tickets at lexscopefilms.com/scopescreenings.
