44
00:01:37.799 --> 00:01:42.200
And more and more. This is the collection. Now you're
45
00:01:42.280 --> 00:02:04.599
host of the boat Brett.
46
00:01:54.480 --> 00:01:59.000
Yoga, CW thirty nine in Houston. Not Ile Davis, thank
47
00:01:59.040 --> 00:02:04.359
you so much for talking. Congratulations on the film.
48
00:02:04.400 --> 00:02:06.159
Thanks, thank you so much.
49
00:02:07.680 --> 00:02:09.759
I want to start really with a question for both
50
00:02:09.800 --> 00:02:12.520
of you, but Nile, if you could kick us off. Obviously,
51
00:02:12.599 --> 00:02:14.759
the story is important, That's why you felt the need
52
00:02:15.120 --> 00:02:18.000
need to tell him. But what was it specifically that
53
00:02:18.120 --> 00:02:20.199
made you say let's sit down and show this in
54
00:02:20.599 --> 00:02:23.840
a documentary form to really, you know, shine the light
55
00:02:23.919 --> 00:02:25.800
on this particular subject.
56
00:02:27.639 --> 00:02:30.280
Yeah, a great question. It's funny. Actually this project didn't
57
00:02:30.319 --> 00:02:34.680
start as a documentary, but instead as a script scripted project.
58
00:02:35.199 --> 00:02:38.479
We hired a couple of writers to put together a script.
59
00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:42.199
And you know, Deaf President Now wasn't just a simple
60
00:02:42.199 --> 00:02:46.439
protest to appoints a deaf president. It contained so much
61
00:02:46.599 --> 00:02:50.800
nuance and layers of oppressive dynamics that had existed for years.
62
00:02:51.159 --> 00:02:53.960
You know, it speaks to discrimination and paternalism that had
63
00:02:54.120 --> 00:02:56.479
really run this campus for one hundred and twenty four years.
64
00:02:56.960 --> 00:02:59.599
So when I was talking to you, Davis about what
65
00:02:59.680 --> 00:03:04.240
I felt a scripted version really lacked, he said, this
66
00:03:04.280 --> 00:03:06.199
absolutely has to be a doc and the rest is
67
00:03:06.199 --> 00:03:06.840
really history.
68
00:03:07.879 --> 00:03:08.080
You know.
69
00:03:08.919 --> 00:03:11.439
I think doing this as a doc, we were able
70
00:03:11.439 --> 00:03:13.960
to break the rules that you would typically have to
71
00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:16.159
abide by in a scripted space. We were able to
72
00:03:16.199 --> 00:03:20.840
incorporate so much more of the deaf experience into the film.
73
00:03:20.919 --> 00:03:23.240
Yeah, I mean, Davis, just what was that point there
74
00:03:23.280 --> 00:03:26.000
where you said, you know what a documentary is the
75
00:03:26.039 --> 00:03:27.280
route to go not scripted?
76
00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:31.159
Well, we're here in galad At University today and in Washington,
77
00:03:31.240 --> 00:03:33.520
d C. Where I grew up, and I hadn't heard
78
00:03:33.560 --> 00:03:37.919
of this story, and I just couldn't believe that the
79
00:03:37.960 --> 00:03:41.039
world had sort of forgotten or neglected the story. It's
80
00:03:41.120 --> 00:03:43.719
it's an if your viewers want to watch it, it's
81
00:03:44.199 --> 00:03:49.520
it's an incredible story of how collective action works young
82
00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:54.960
students when they see uh, something that they could they
83
00:03:55.000 --> 00:03:59.159
came through leadership and communication actually get something done. It's
84
00:03:59.199 --> 00:04:03.879
it's a refreshing story. Given all the tumult right now
85
00:04:03.879 --> 00:04:06.919
and so many protests that feel kind of super negative,
86
00:04:06.919 --> 00:04:14.039
this is an incredible story of hope and optimism and change.
87
00:04:14.599 --> 00:04:17.480
So I said, well, if we have to tell a story,
88
00:04:17.519 --> 00:04:20.839
and the truth of it is so much better than fiction.
89
00:04:21.279 --> 00:04:23.079
These actual characters are so amazing.
90
00:04:25.680 --> 00:04:29.680
And I think what's great about documentaries, especially one such
91
00:04:29.720 --> 00:04:32.079
as yours. I think that people might have heard of
92
00:04:31.560 --> 00:04:34.519
the of the of the Protest, maybe they have some
93
00:04:34.680 --> 00:04:37.279
recollection of it, maybe they don't know anything about it.
94
00:04:37.480 --> 00:04:41.120
And as directors and documentary filmmakers, you kind of acted
95
00:04:41.160 --> 00:04:43.959
as archaeologists in the way, right, here's what we knew
96
00:04:44.000 --> 00:04:46.680
about this thing, but let's actually dig in deep and
97
00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:49.920
maybe even discover some new information. Nile, was there anything
98
00:04:50.279 --> 00:04:53.959
during the process of putting together the doc that surprised
99
00:04:54.000 --> 00:04:56.680
you even maybe new information.
100
00:04:59.759 --> 00:05:00.000
Yeah.
101
00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:03.560
Yeah, Actually, as we were going through the archives, we
102
00:05:03.560 --> 00:05:06.759
were so lucky when we reached out to Galadat to
103
00:05:06.920 --> 00:05:11.399
find that they had a very very rich archive. And
104
00:05:11.639 --> 00:05:14.439
I had always seen the same clips growing up, replayed
105
00:05:14.439 --> 00:05:17.800
again and again, so I was excited to see, you know,
106
00:05:17.879 --> 00:05:20.560
if there was a clip of Spilman saying deaf people
107
00:05:20.560 --> 00:05:22.800
are not ready to function in the hearing world, because
108
00:05:22.800 --> 00:05:27.040
that quote is legendary in our community. So we went
109
00:05:27.160 --> 00:05:30.319
digging for the evidence of it. And even though with
110
00:05:31.040 --> 00:05:33.759
all of the footage we had we didn't have any
111
00:05:33.800 --> 00:05:37.759
of that, you could tell by her actions that the
112
00:05:37.879 --> 00:05:41.160
attitude matched the quote in every way. You know, her
113
00:05:41.199 --> 00:05:43.759
behavior is just it's amazing.
114
00:05:44.120 --> 00:05:44.319
You know.
115
00:05:45.920 --> 00:05:48.439
The Deaf President now for actually
have commented that they've
116
00:05:48.480 --> 00:05:51.079
never seen so many of these clips and when they
117
00:05:51.279 --> 00:05:53.240
first saw the film, they were like, oh wow, she
118
00:05:53.279 --> 00:05:57.480
really did act like that. So that was a great impact.
119
00:05:58.199 --> 00:06:01.319
And David, you know you put together you talk about
120
00:06:01.560 --> 00:06:03.920
the start as a script. When you have a script
121
00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:06.120
in front of you first peel for a scripted content,
122
00:06:06.160 --> 00:06:07.439
obviously it's the beginning, middle, and end.
123
00:06:07.480 --> 00:06:08.480
It's all there on the page.
124
00:06:08.480 --> 00:06:10.560
You know, where the characters are going to go and
125
00:06:10.600 --> 00:06:13.240
what have you or the documentary when you find these
126
00:06:13.319 --> 00:06:17.079
new archival footage or find new information while you're shooting it,
127
00:06:17.279 --> 00:06:18.720
I feel like, does a lot of it have to
128
00:06:18.759 --> 00:06:21.120
come together in the edit after you get everything?
129
00:06:21.319 --> 00:06:24.759
Yeah, that's right, it really is. And it was a
130
00:06:24.759 --> 00:06:27.920
true collaboration with me and Nile, like what do we
131
00:06:27.959 --> 00:06:30.439
have for archive? What are we missing? How do we
132
00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:32.839
get that through the interviews with these four characters. People,
133
00:06:32.879 --> 00:06:36.920
everyone they watch this movie, they say, Wow, these four
134
00:06:37.000 --> 00:06:40.959
characters are amazing. They're hilarious. They don't always get along.
135
00:06:41.079 --> 00:06:44.120
They're kind of like the breakfast club in a documentary
136
00:06:44.120 --> 00:06:46.560
because they're kind of like at each other's throats at
137
00:06:46.600 --> 00:06:48.600
the beginning, but they come together at the end. And
138
00:06:50.160 --> 00:06:54.800
so yeah, it's all it's all a combination of all
139
00:06:54.800 --> 00:07:00.800
that material. But you know, Nile really insisted that it
140
00:07:00.839 --> 00:07:04.199
be told from a deaf perspective, and we have this
141
00:07:04.279 --> 00:07:07.839
thing in our movie called deaf POV deaf point of view,
142
00:07:07.879 --> 00:07:10.120
And I think that's that's what's unique about the movie
143
00:07:10.199 --> 00:07:13.279
is that not only Calculate encapsulates all the things you're
144
00:07:13.279 --> 00:07:17.240
talking about, but insists that we really experience and experience it,
145
00:07:17.319 --> 00:07:21.120
not from a hearing person telling a deaf story. This
146
00:07:21.279 --> 00:07:21.759
is different.
147
00:07:23.680 --> 00:07:26.240
Well, it's an incredible film and an incredible story. I
148
00:07:26.279 --> 00:07:28.600
thank you both for bringing this to the masses and
149
00:07:28.680 --> 00:07:31.040
sharing the story and everything y'all share the title of
150
00:07:31.120 --> 00:07:31.759
me today.
151
00:07:31.800 --> 00:07:32.160
Thank you
