Writer/Director Skinner Myers is an award-winning filmmaker and film professor at Loyola Marymount University. Skinner wrote and directed four short films: Chimera, The Last Supper, Obscured, and Nigger, while studying film at USC School of Cinematic Arts. I reached out to Skinner after seeing “The Sleeping Negro” at Slamdance 2021. “Confronted with a series of racially charged incidents, a young black man must overcome rage, alienation, and hopelessness in order to find his own humanity.”

The writer/director says he used a “narrative/experimental” approach to filmmaking.

Skinner and I talk filmmaking, his path to directing and how he made this film, of course. Then we venture into a very real discussion of racism in America, racial inequality, and more heavy stuff that needs to be discussed. I know you’ll appreciate Skinner’s POV.

I’m a longtime fan of comedy Director Tom DeCerchio, so it was great to sit down and chat on this episode. We share a love for communication and holding the pre-pre production meeting so all are on the same page. Tom tells the tale of being a young copywriter and how that informs him as a filmmaker.

Thanks to my son and podcast editor Jake Brady for filling on the intro here, as I got that flu bug kicking my ass!  Detroit, Dallas, Houston, Phoenix and Los Angeles and Minneapolis screenings of “I Am Battle Comic” are selling ticket fast. Click on this site for links.

Cheers,

Jordan
