AASC-Showrunners

Directors and the Alchemy of Collaborating with Showrunners

May 20, 2024 An African American Steering Committee Virtual Event

On May 20, Director-Producer Reggie Rock Bythewood (Swagger, Shots Fired) and Producers Cheo Hodari Coker (Luke Cage) and Janine Sherman Barrois (The Kings of Napa) discussed the dynamics of the relationships in their collaborations with the Directors on their respective shows, as well as the skills they look for when hiring, during a conversation moderated by AASC Co-Chair Gina Prince Bythewood.


About the Committee:

The African American Steering Committee (AASC) was born of a desire to address the specific needs of the African-American members of the Directors Guild. One of the primary goals of the Committee is to establish a productive line of communication between African-American members and the creative community. The Committee meets monthly to plan events throughout the year celebrating the achievements of African-Americans, as well as forums with industry executives to proactively address what can be done to hire more African-Americans.
