From Script To Zoom With Artist Collective Founder Jamila Webb
b"Episode 9: Jamila Webb, founder of the grassroots artist collective First Fifteen, facilitates table reads of the first fifteen pages of scripts by up-and-coming BIPOC writers. She fastidiously casts the works with actors and then stages the readings in front of a panel of established industry professionals. On today's episode, Jamila talks about that process, what it was like taking her table reads from actual tables to a virtual medium (Zoom), and why she feels an imperative to lift up BIPOC voices and, in particular, those of black women. Recorded simultaneously in Los Angeles, CA and Burbank, CA via Zoom."
