Description

Director Carlos López Estrada (Raya and the Last Dragon) leads another all-star panel of Hollywood talent to discuss how they’ve navigated the industry as screenwriters, television writers, and showrunners.These talented writers have not only enjoyed enormous success in the industry, but have also brought their own fresh perspectives which have been missing for a long time in Hollywood. Including narratives that have focused on Asian Americans, women, Latin America and Native Americans, to name just a few. “As we all know, writers are the backbone of storytelling. And, of course, the backbone of our industry. And during this pivotal time in our entertainment community, it feels as important as ever to hear from the artists who are the foundation of everything we do... Today we are joined by four powerhouse writers who will share a little bit about their experiences creating film and TV that has truly been game-changing for our industry. They're responsible for giving us singular stories that authentically reflect the world that we live in, as well as helped us envision the world that we want to see.”—Carlos López Estrada, Director, "Blindspotting,” “Raya and the Last Dragon,” “Summertime”Today’s panel includes writers:- Carolina Paiz (Narcos, Grey’s Anatomy, Orange is The New Black)- Dana Ledoux Miller (The Newsroom, Thai Cave Rescue, Disney’s Moana)- Joanna Calo (Hacks, Beef, Bojack Horseman, The Bear)- Charles Yu (Interior Chinatown, Westworld, American Born Chinese, Marvel’s Legion on FX)This discussion was streamed live as part of Antigravity Academy’s new Satellite Sessions — “monthly conversations with incredibly exciting figures from the film and TV universe” — co-presented by CAPE USA (Coalition of Asian Pacifics in Entertainment).
