Who we are
In The Gray Studios is a Black and trans-owned studio founded by Naimah "NONY" Gray and Ryan Gray. We build from lived perspective, not distance.
About
A living studio for difficult stories.
ITGS exists to platform stories shaped by complexity, humanity, and care. We are not here to flatten people into neat categories. We are here to create honest work.
What we make
Books, films, animation, podcast work, music, photography, and research-led media. Every project asks what truth is trying to be said, and how to say it with integrity.
How we work
Discovery
We begin by listening. Context first, output second.
Development
We shape story and form around creator voice and project truth.
Release
We publish with care, then keep the conversation open.
