Mischaël “Misch” Cetoute is a Miami-based entrepreneur, educator, attorney, and producer whose work sits at the intersection of advocacy, storytelling, and community impact. He is best known for his work as the producing partner of the acclaimed filmmaking duo FLYPAPER, and supporting emerging artists and creators.
Misch began his career as a teacher in New York. As advisor to his school's Hip Hop Club during the emergence of rapper Pop Smoke, he witnessed firsthand the transformative impact that mentorship and advocacy can have on creative talent. Alongside his students, Misch built a recording studio in the abandoned music room, and produced their NPR national award-winning podcast, the Flossy Podcast. Shepherding his students through the experience of being broadcasted to millions and formally recognized by government leaders continues to inform his approach to producing and talent management.
Alongside the legendary Danny Glover, Misch served as Executive Producer of NEWBIES, FLYPAPER's award-winning short film, which premiered at the 2025 SXSW Film & TV Festival, and is now streaming on the Criterion Channel. Misch is also producing The Birthday Song, FLYPAPER's forthcoming short film portraying a Black girl's thirteenth birthday on the eve of Hurricane Katrina. The project was selected as a winner of Tribeca Studios' 2025 Kickstart with Canva Award.
Beyond film, Misch works at the intersection of public policy, place-making, and community development, with a focus on historically disinvested neighborhoods. He currently serves on the NextGen Committee of Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM), helping advance the museum's mission to foster meaningful engagement with contemporary art and culture.
