Dr. Carter's extensive body of work includes more than 30 feature films and multiple network television projects, such as Lucky Girl, My B.F.F., One Crazy Christmas, Hip Hop Family Christmas, and Hip Hop Family Christmas Wedding—the latter produced with Jamie Foxx and Foxxhole Entertainment, premiering on VH1.

His recent credits include serving as line producer for A Boy. A Girl. A Dream.

“Dr. Carter is both very talented and experienced. Our team is excited to bring on '5th Ward,' and for us to continue to collaborate in the future,” said Lamar Seay, Co-founder and Chief Content Officer of VYRE Network. Dr. Carter emphasized his mission: “To empower regional creators and give them a real pathway to funding, development, production oversight, and worldwide exposure. Houston—and the entire region—is rich with untold stories and creative voices. This new office exists to cultivate those voices, shape them, and bring them to global audiences.”
Under the partnership, Dr. Carter will collaborate with VYRE's executive programming team to curate, develop, and supervise production of regional content; establish strategic creator, producer, and studio relationships; package select projects; expand VYRE's footprint for culturally relevant storytelling; and discover and develop up-and-coming filmmakers from HBCUs and HSIs in the Southern region. He will also lead educational sessions for Texas-based creators on financing, deal structure, pitching, packaging, and distribution pathways.
