Rising Voices is continuing with a second season and a new residency program.
The Lab is non-exclusive, which means that the three selected filmmakers – Johnson Cheng , Stacy Pascal Gaspard and Gabriela Ortega – are free to pursue and take on work for other companies during their tenure as an Indeed filmmaker-in-residence, which will pay them $100,000 each.
“We are thrilled to be bringing back the Rising Voices program with our partners at Indeed,” Waithe and Hillman Grad president Rishi Rajani said in a joint statement. “This year’s brilliant films and filmmakers proved that there are so many stories out there to tell, and so many artists ready to tell them. Creating these opportunities for underrepresented voices and kickstarting their careers is fundamental to our mission here at Hillman Grad.
As in Season 1, the filmmakers selected for Rising Voices will receive mentorship and line production staff from Hillman Grad and returning program partners Ventureland and 271 Films, as well as a $10,000 writing fee for their short film scripts, which simply must illustrate how jobs can change the world.
