Go Anita!

Anita Azenet is Chair of the Hays County Film Advisory Board. Her journey in the film industry began as manager of her daughter’s Broadway and Television career. When her daughter was old enough to go on set alone, Anita returned to school and obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree in Cinema and Television from California State University, Northridge. Her academic fortitude was recognized with the prestigious Presidential Scholarship, which she utilized to write the feature script, "Cherokee Rosebud." Her scripts and films earned numerous awards and accolades, and in 2025, the City of San Marcos Arts Commission awarded her a grant to bring to life the compelling narrative of the 1921 Tulsa race riots through a staged reading of her feature script, "Tulsa 21.” The script is now in the hands of accomplished African American producers in Los Angeles. Her creative work includes writing, producing, and directing the award-winning short film "Fate Has No Plan" which featured her daughter, Bianca Collins. Anita also co-wrote the short film "Best Served Cold" focusing on original storytelling. Anita is currently developing a dramatic short about a six-year-old Spanish-speaking Mexican American girl, the first in her family to attend an Anglo school in 1950s San Marcos, Texas. The story, based on true events, centers on the girl's traumatic experiences.
