๐ŸŽ‚ Happy Birthday, DTG! ๐Ÿงก Weโ€™re into our fourth year of putting neurodivergent talent first and thriving in an industry that wasnโ€™t built for us. To celebrate, weโ€™re gifting you (and ourselves) our new Divergent Manifesto, handwritten by our founder. โœจ

The image shows a man with curly brown hair and a full beard, wearing a purple and black sweatshirt. He appears to be concentrating, looking downward. In front of him is a professional camera setup, indicating that he is involved in a video or film production. A large microphone on a boom arm is positioned above his head. The background is blurred, but there is a window letting in some natural light. The overall scene suggests a behind-the-scenes look at a filming process.
