4| Bella Cosper - Editor|Writer|Vision Impaired Actress

The one where we interview Bella Cosper a small business owner, writer, director and actress who has a vision impairment. She is a writer for the CBS Pipeline and mentee’d at Six Point Harness (Hair Love) for Animation Development. She has produced, directed, & written award-winning short films, scripted audio, TV, & stage productions. An alumni of UCLA’s TV Comedy Writing & Development program, she also studied comedy at Upright Citizens Brigade, iO, & The Pack. You may recognize Bella’s name from our outro credits as she runs her own production company, Egrollmedia.com and we hired her to master our first few episodes until we got our in-house editing staffed and trained! Bella is a terrific actress and talented business owner. I highly recommend her for your podcast production needs and she’s a funny script writer too! Check out her latest project What the Braille? And follow her on IG @eggrollmedia and @realbellacosper and on Twitter at Bellacosper In this episode we mention a email group that no longer exists today.  But fear not there are many resources online that offer a way to connect to other filmmakers, including the Alliance of Women Directors, Women In Media's Crew List, Ava DuVernay's Crew List called ARRAY Crew, Filmmakers groups on FB and Google Groups.  Isn't the internet amazing!  Bella also talked about a place where artists can tell their stories "Typewriter Dynasty" at the Hayworth Theatre is a theater and performing arts center at 2511 Wilshire Boulevard in the Westlake neighborhood of Los Angeles, California. Bella and I also talked a little about the Easter Seals Disability Film Challenge, a film festival that looks to make disability more visible!  I encourage you to form a team and enter in 2022 - it usually happens in March/April.
