The Lab brings independent screenwriters together with ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ accomplished writers, in an environment that encourages the art and craft of writing and creative ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ risk-taking.

The Lab is the first step in a year-round continuum of customized creative and tactical support for ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ each project and team. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ The January Screenwriters Lab has been created and organized under the leadership of Sundance ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Institute's Feature Film Program Founding Director Michelle Satter and Labs Director Ilyse McKimmie. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​​ ​ ​ ​ The team of Creative Advisors includes Artistic Director Scott Frank, Andrea Berloff, D.V.

We're thrilled to begin our relationship with these storytellers, ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ and look forward to supporting them throughout the lifecycle of their projects.” ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Twelve films supported by the Feature Film Program will premiere at the 2018 Sundance Film Festival.

    Press Contact: Tim Etheridge, Director of Public Relations 510 647-2917; [email protected] FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE BERKELEY REPERTORY THEATRE’S ARTISTIC DIRECTOR JOHANNA PFAELZER ANNOUNCES NEW COMMISSIONS FOR 2021 Commissions granted to Rafael Casal, Daveed Diggs, Dipika Guha, Sarah Ruhl, and Jack Thorne and Nico Muhly June 17, 2021 - Berkeley Repertory Theatre’s Artistic Director Johanna Pfaelzer today announced her first set of commissions since joining the company in 2019. This dynamic group of artists’ previous works encompass a wide range of genres, forms, and subject matter. The commissioned artists will be supported from inception to world premiere productions at Berkeley Rep over the next few seasons. “I am so proud and grateful to be able to make commitments to this group of artists in this particular moment,” says Pfaelzer. “Very early on in the pandemic, our Managing Director Susie Medak and I talked about these commissions as a commitment to our artistic community that Berkeley Rep would weather this storm, and a promise to ourselves and our audiences that there would be rich, complicated, beautifully theatrical stories to explore together on the other side. Sarah, Dipika, Rafael, Daveed, Nico, and Jack are each such extraordinary storytellers — the ability to support them in crafting new narratives, and anticipating the moment that we can gather together in a theatre in the presence of their imaginations is a source of inspiration for me in these profoundly challenging times.” Several of playwrights chosen have a strong connection to Berkeley Rep, including the writers/producers and stars of Blindspotting, Tony Award winner Daveed Diggs and writer/actor Rafael Casal, both of whom are from the Bay Area and participated in teen programs at The Theatre.

Though this variety, in theory, risks trading breadth for depth, the contributions to this volume show how, in practice, that is not the case. Other dichotomies are interrogated by both individual pieces in the Journal and the diversity of the volume: politics and aesthetics; individuals and structures; “tradition and modernity.” By experiencing these intersections as revelations, as opposed to novelties, we can all better understand our intricate and increasingly urban world.

  • Black Struggle Film Production: Meta-Synthesis of Black Struggle Film Production and Critique Since the Millennium
    IAFOR Journal of Media, Communication & Film Volume 6 – Issue 1 – Summer 2019 Black Struggle Film Production: Meta-Synthesis of Black Struggle Film Production and Critique Since the Millennium Robert Cummings, Morehouse College, USA Abstract The film industry has historically wrestled with consistently producing representative and innovative Black American wide release feature length theatrical films. The limited quantity of films containing a majority Black cast and films with a Black protagonist allows for exploration of the similarities between such films. “Black struggle films,” films focusing on historic or overt racial, ethnic, or social challenges, appear to be one of the few sorts of films cast, led, and produced by Black American creatives. In addition, Black struggle films appear to be more critically acclaimed and recognized than any other sort of Black film. This investigation is part of a case study on the attributes and successes of Black struggle film production. This article focuses on budget, distribution, and other production variables of Black American films released in the last 20 years. Additionally, a meta-synthesis was performed comparing film critiques of one wide-released, theatrical Black struggle film with other Black films. Film critiques were analyzed using a thematic analytical method to identify themes about their production patterns. The findings of this study will allow media researchers to identify trends in Black American film production and influence producers to engage in strategic and representative production of films that document Black experiences. Keywords: Black struggle film, African American, American film history, White guilt, White savior film, Oscar bait 65 IAFOR Journal of Media, Communication & Film Volume 6 – Issue 1 – Summer 2019 There has been much criticism about the recent 2018 film Green Book (Burke & Farrelly, 2018).

    Partners Transcript: Daveed & Rafael Rafael: There's sort of a before we met and an after we met and no gradient. Daveed: Yeah. Rafael: I don't remember— Daveed: It's like, I don't even know this guy and then this is the person I work with on everything. Rafael: And I'm pretty sure I said to him, I was like, "This is my best friend." Daveed: I'm Daveed Diggs. Rafael: I'm Rafael Casal. Daveed: And we're buddies. Hrishikesh: It's a little hard to summarize the partnership between Daveed and Raphael, because as best friends and creative collaborators, they've done so much over the years together. Let me start individually. Daveed Diggs won a Tony and a Grammy for his performance in Hamilton. He played Thomas Jefferson and the Marquis de Lafayette in the original Broadway cast. He's also the vocalist in the experimental hip hop group. Clipping. Rafael Casal is an actor, writer and director. He's an award winning slam poet and started appearing on HPOs Def Poetry Jam at the age of 18. Over the 20 years these guys have known each other, they've worked in theater, poetry, music and film and usually in some combination of those mediums. They co-wrote and co-starred in the film Blindspotting, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in 2018. President Obama named it one of his favorite movies of the year. Blindspotting takes place in Oakland, which is also where Daveed and Rafael are from. Their story begins at Berkeley High School.
