unleashed the power of Twitter to educate and inspire the film community with a 10-hour tweet-a-thon event for cinephiles to ask their favorite filmmakers all about how and why they make the movies they’ve made.
More than 60 directors participated in the day-long event, answering questions marked with the hashtag #ARRAYNow and dishing out candid advice and valuable industry knowledge The full lineup of directors included blockbuster helmers Patty Jenkins and Jon M. Chu , breakthrough artists with buzzy upcoming projects Nia DaCosta and Radha Blank , recent Oscar winners Matthew A. Cherry and Peter Ramsey , and industry legends Mira Nair, Julie Dash, Malcolm D. Lee and“I wanted this to feel like a virtual hug from filmmakers to film lovers. Hope it did,” DuVernay tweeted to her 2.3 million followers as she closed out the event.
Sharing her own advice in response to a question about using social media to break through “industry red tape,”, “That theory assumes that someone is going to help you. Very few of the directors in today’s event took that posture. They committed to their vision and found a way. On the journey, help will come, will be attracted to you. But don’t start from that place of need.”
