The Austin Revolution Film Festival has named their Social Conscience Film award after Cedric and the Austin Student Film Festival have named their Filmmaker of the Year Award after Cedric. Cedric continues to write, direct, and produce films that entertain yet give voice to those that feel voiceless including his latest short film, “Retirement Day”, a love story like no other.
