SUMMARY:Creating Your Own Work
DESCRIPTION:Revisit this discussion about Creating Your Own Work with episodic television and feature film writer/directors Isidora Marras (I Am Not Lorena) Jennifer Arnold (Shameless)\, Marta Cunningham (Fear The Walking Dead)\, Susan Youssef (Marjoun and the Flying Headscarf)\, and Vanessa Parise (Charmed). Moderated by Meera Menon (Equity). \nThis round table discussion explored how we support each other’s unique voices to create our own work. During Covid\, our group of director friends started a writing circle that has changed the way we approach our careers. We are working together to support each other’s unique voices\, to create truly individual and inspired work\, not the stories we’ve heard before. Covid has forced us to slow down. We’ve found a silver lining in creating a new space to delve deep and listen to our inner storytellers\, and help each other to tell our stories in the most impactful and engaging ways. As we develop our individual careers\, we believe success comes from working together.

SUMMARY:Adaptation for Film & TV
