Oh oh oh, wat was er de afgelopen weken/maanden toch weer een hoop vuile mediawas om door te nemen! We blikken terug op de verplichte e-learning die vanuit het Mediapact aan alle medewerkers binnen de audiovisuele sector is aangeboden.

Hoe moeilijk het blijkbaar blijft om Sranantongo correct uit te spreken, bleek nadat Danzel Silos, ook bekend als rapper Bigidagoe overleed. We kregen meerdere mediamissers getipt van onze luisteraars maar natuurlijk sloten we vrolijk af met twee kijktips van One'sy: Villa Ramadan en Dreaming Whilst Black. Bekijk hier het fragment van Dit Was Het Nieuws: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E5G4Ne244HM Bekijk hier Villa Ramadan: https://npo.nl/start/serie/villa-ramadan Bekijk hier Dreaming Whilst Black: https://npo.nl/start/serie/dreaming-whilst-black Heb jij zelf voorbeelden van missers of opstekers in de media, volg ons dan op www.instagram.com/bontewaspodcast en geef ze daar aan ons door.

In this episode of The Directors' Take podcast, your hosts Oz Arshad and Marcus Anthony Thomas are joined by director Joelle Mae David to talk us through her journey into the industry and how she went about directing the middle block of the hit BBC and A24 show, Dreaming Whilst Black from creator Adjani Salmon. As ever this is a craft focused conversation which covers the following: -Joelle's journey into the industry. -The challenges of making her first narrative short film, Greasy Spoon. -Setting up and running her own production company. -How she got her first TV credits. -How she works within a tough filming schedule. -How to direct comedy. -The difference between being a middle block and lead block director. -Managing work/life balance as a working director. Joelle Mae David started making her own short documentaries that shone a light on undiscovered talent from marginalised backgrounds which ultimately got featured on BBC3. She has since set up a company Bluebird Pictures with a focus on more narrative storytelling, that will further help give marginalised talent a chance and to tell stories that challenge the status quo. She's obviously a filmmaker on the rise, having success with her short films Greasy Spoon and Cycle, before most recently landing the role as second block director on the wonderful Dreaming Whilst Black created by Adjani Salmon who stars in it too, Max Evans and Natasha Jatania. She's also currently working as Lead director on Queenie from Showrunner Candice Carty-Williams for Channel 4.

He tells Tom Sutcliffe about the reality and his fictional portrayal of the everyday struggles of being an aspiring filmmaker. Also on Front Row - the Aeneid, the epic poem written by Virgil more than 2000 years ago. As well as being one of the great works of classical literature, it's also one of the earliest examples of a work commissioned as political propaganda.

A Mythological Musical, a new audiobook that fuses the life of the poet with that of his greatest work, and Sarah Ruden, who recently updated her translation of the Aeneid and publishes a new biography of the poet in October, discuss why the Aeneid still packs a punch today.

Zoe Saldaña joins us on this week's show (fear not, the interview was recorded prior to the strike) to discuss Taylor Sheridan, assigning animals to all her characters, and Special Ops: Lioness on Paramount+. Meanwhile, you all have to sit through an extended dramatisation of James' Odyssey to secure Taylor Swift tickets (we're so sorry, please don't unsubscribe - if it all gets too much you can skip the whole of this shaggy dog story by jumping to 14:14), as well as a potted history of door sound effects in cinema (again, we can only apologise). Elsewhere, we watch Dreaming Whilst Black on BBC1, Ghosts Of Beirut on Paramount+ and The Power Of Parker, also on the Beeb.

This chat covers: -What is a First Assistant Director? -What does the relationship look like between a First AD and Director? -Scheduling as a means of being creative. -What does prep look like? -The difference in early career and experienced directors. -The big mistakes that directors make. -His own career as a director.

His short film A Warriors Dance has now screened at its showcase and will be embarking on its festival journey imminently. https://nfts.co.uk/article/six-and-coming-directors-join-prime-video-workshop-nfts Nuggets of the week Marcus: FilmRiot - Can you write a feature film?
