About
SMS Novel
What Sets Us Apart
SMS Novel Films has been owned and operated by filmmaker and youth pastor Jomo K. Johnson since 2017. Founded in Washington D.C., we collaborate with indie artists and workers, creators, and everyday storytellers nationwide. Since 2018, SMS Novel has published over 4 dozen books, released 5 films, hosted 100+ events, and employed and paid out thousands in earnings to creators across the country.
Featured by major media outlets and viewed by a quarter million viewers on Youtube, SMS Novel now offers Meta POV glasses rentals, same-day payouts, and live creator support.
In an era of machine-processed content, SMS Novel Films exists to return storytelling to real people — real voices, real neighborhoods, real films. Not studio manufactured. Yours.
