The 10 Biggest Takeaways From Variety’s Virtual Truth Seekers Summit
从RZA到乔恩·法夫洛（Jon Favreau），艺术家，电影制片人，新闻工作者和活动家于8月26日聚集在一起，与滚石乐队合作，由Showtime纪录片合作，参加了Variety的就职真相Seekers Summit。这是为期两天的活动的10个要点。RZA受到罗伯特·德·尼罗（Robert de Niro）的启发。 RZA说，罗伯特·德·尼罗（Robert de Niro）帮助他了解了如何将自己与艺术分开。 “我从'教父'和'Goodfellas'中认识他，然后在这里他在演奏这个精神病患者。他演奏得如此出色。将自己与艺术区分开来实际上是一件艺术。我遇到了Deniro先生，他不是 Cady。”阴谋理论渗透了主流社交媒体是“大规模虚假信息的武器”小组，作家，电影制片人和记者几乎聚集在一起，讨论社交媒体如何放大和加速虚假时代。说虽然危险的意识形态曾经一直留在互联网的边缘，但阴谋理论现在在主流社交媒体（例如Facebook和Twitter）中消失了。像8chan或4chan一样，但是这些平台上存在的阴谋论和思想仍然存在于边缘，”霍巴克说。 “在过去的四到五年中，我们看到的是他们逃脱了陈。他们正在进入YouTube，Facebook，Twitter和算法上的途径，就像是汽油一样。娄·里德乐队（Lou Reed）乐队托德·海恩斯（Todd Haynes）的egacy案证明，地下天鹅绒是他们那个时代最有影响力的乐队之一，鼓舞人类的流派和几代人。但是乐队在职业生涯中几乎没有成功或影响力。“ [地下维特（Velet Underground）当时没有真正的商业影响，”海恩斯说。 “这支乐队花了数十年的时间才能获得朋克摇滚和新浪潮音乐以及独立摇滚和华丽摇滚的前身。”扎卡里·德鲁克（Zackary Drucker）谈到了“女士和戴尔（The Lady and the Dale）”，以及利兹·卡迈克尔（Liz Carmichael）的过渡如何将她与犯罪联系起来，以及当今社会内部的刻板印象。当她逃避执法时。当她被发现时，她的性别认同与她的犯罪分子的身份混为一谈L，这是完全教科书。跨性别的身份一直与犯罪性联系在一起 - 男人可能会伪装成妇女来犯罪的看法。多洛雷斯·韦尔塔（Dolores Huerta）通过“民主101”，总裁兼创始人，他告诉克莱顿·戴维斯（Clayton Davis）。埃罗尔·莫里斯（Errol Morris埃罗尔·莫里斯（Errol Morris）宣称的电影《天堂之门》和《佛罗里达州弗农》（Vernon，Florida），埃罗尔·莫里斯（Errol Morris）告诉《综艺的副奖》和《编辑》（Editor），《成功的电影》在纪录片制片人行业中的地位不足以在纪录片制片人行业中取得较高的地位，如一个仍然需要融资和分配。因此，他休息了私人调查。“我是一名调查员。第二部电影后我是一位失败的电影制片人，我需要谋生，我有机会为私人调查员工作 - 实际上是美国最好的私人调查员之一，我做了三个年。它确实挽救了我的生命，因为当我在电影业中没有工作时，它提供了收入和工作。”乔恩·法夫洛（Jon Favreau美国的主持人乔恩·法夫洛（Jon Favreau）和汤米·沃特（Tommy Vietor）在综艺节目的凯特·奥瑟（Kate Aurthur）中谈到了为什么他们创造了一个渐进式媒体 - 与Favreau说，这部分是由于传统媒体缺乏激进主义。“很多新闻，甚至一些进步的新闻，都可能让您感到有些无助，因为它不会给您工具和信息提供工具和信息要对我们每天的夜间新闻中看到的问题做些事情。我们想将进步新闻和新闻与行动主义融合在一起，以便我们实际上可以为人们提供工具和信息来改变周围的世界。 ”希望他的纪录片提醒观众，被监禁的人也是人类。该纪录片的重点是1971年的监狱叛乱，这仍然是美国历史上最致命的。他们今晚要在监狱里上床睡觉。他们明天早上要在监狱里醒来，你知道吗？[我希望观众]考虑那些人。监狱在美国和世界上要以多种方式做的事情做到了。他们想锁定人们，让我们忘记他们。我们在很大程度上这样做。因此，我希望至少，[电影]让人们想到现在人们正在监狱中的事实。特别是在通过纪录片制作在屏幕上描绘“真相”时。 12年前，他为他的制作公司Firelight电影的新兴纪录片启动了一部纪录片实验室。我们如何给人们一个开始？不仅我本人，而且有那么多电影制片人是导师，这是其他电影制片人，尤其是有色电影制片人的非正式导师。人们会叫我，从字面上看f蓝色，只是说：“我看过你拍的电影，呃，你知道，你是一个黑人电影制片人，我是黑人，你能成为我的导师吗？”也是其他电影制片人。因此，我们想尝试考虑将其制度化，并将其更像是一个程序，而不是临时或捕获式捕捞。萨姆·波拉德（Sam Pollard）说，当纪录片《纪录片》（R.J. R.J.来自“比利·埃里什（Billie Eilish）的卡特勒（Cutler）：“世界有点模糊”，来自“吴塔克（Wu-tang）氏族的萨莎·詹金斯（Sacha Jenkins）：MICS和MEN的MICS和MEN”，来自“ MLK/FBI”的Sam Pollard，来自“我将在黑暗中走了”的Liz Garbus以及来自“再次崛起：塔尔萨和红色夏天”的黎明·波特（Dawn Porter），讨论了纪录片制作背后的情感真理。制作电影时自己的个人感受。您必须带来自己的个人感受 - 这就是使这些电影与众不同和独特的原因。如果您没有将自己的个人观点带到材料上，那么您只是一位做事的电影制片人。”
From RZA to Jon Favreau, artists, filmmakers, journalists and activists gathered on Aug. 26 for Variety‘s inaugural Truth Seekers Summit, in partnership with Rolling Stone and presented by Showtime Documentary Films.
The summit explored the art of documentary and investigative storytelling. Here are 10 takeaways from the two-day event.
RZA Was Inspired By Robert De Niro In Making His Series “Wu-Tang: An American Saga”
Speaking about the difficulties of writing about his own life and career in the format of a TV series, RZA said Robert De Niro helped him understand how to separate himself from the art.
“When I saw ‘Cape Fear,’ my brain clicked, because I’m such a fan of his,” RZA said. “I knew him from ‘The Godfather’ and ‘Goodfellas,’ and then here he was playing this psychopath. And he played it so brilliantly. It’s actually an artistic thing to separate yourself from art. I met Mr. DeNiro, and he’s not Cady.”
Conspiracy Theories Have Infiltrated Mainstream Social Media
In the “Weapons of Mass Disinformation” panel, writers, filmmakers and journalists gathered virtually to discuss how social media has amplified and accelerated the age of disinformation.
Cullen Hoback, producer, writer and director of HBOS’s “Q: Into the Storm,” said that while dangerous ideologies used to remain on the fringes of the internet, conspiracy theories now fester in mainstream social media, like Facebook and Twitter.
"If you look at the 2000s versus after 2010, you had a lot of these lo-fi forums like 8chan or 4chan, but the conspiracy theories and ideas that existed on those platforms remained on the fringe,” Hoback said. “In the last four to five years, what we saw is that they were escaping the chan. They were finding their way onto YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and the algorithms were like gasoline on top of these.”
The Velvet Underground Were Not Always Considered Widely Influential
In his documentary “The Velvet Underground,” which tracks the legacy of Lou Reed’s band, Todd Haynes makes the case that The Velvet Underground were one of the most influential bands of their time, inspiring genres and generations to come. But the band saw very little success or impact during their career.
“ had no real commercial impact at the time,” Haynes said. “It’s taken decades for this band to gain its rightful place as a precursor to punk rock and new wave music and indie rock and glam rock.”
Zackary Drucker Believes Trans Identity Has Been Commonly Linked To Criminality
When speaking to Variety senior artisans editor Jazz Tangcay, Zackary Drucker spoke about “The Lady and the Dale” and how Liz Carmichael’s transition linked her to crime, along with the stereotypes that are within society today.
“She was a transgender woman who was also a felon on the run from the FBI and transitioned while she was evading law enforcement. When she was discovered, her gender identity was conflated with her identity as a criminal, which is totally textbook. Trans identity has always been linked to criminality — the perception that a man might masquerade as a woman to commit a crime.”
Delores Huerta Said People Can’t Wait For Others To Keep Them Safe Within The Pandemic
While spreading the word about vaccinations and social distancing through “Democracy 101,” President and founder of the Dolores Huerta Foundation, Dolores Huerta told Clayton Davis, Variety's film awards editor that it’s remarkable to see individuals realizing that their one voice creates change.
“It’s kind of miraculous that once people find that they can influence, get people elected, take them out if they’re not doing their job and get the improvements they need in their communities, that they have that power, and we have a lot of leadership development that comes out of that and it can spread, and spread and spread.”
Errol Morris Became A Private Investigator After Making Two Acclaimed Films
After creating two acclaimed films, “Gates of Heaven” and “Vernon, Florida,” Errol Morris told Janelle Riley, Variety's deputy awards and features editor, that back in the day successful films weren’t enough to achieve high status in the documentary filmmaker industry — as one still needed financing and distribution. So he took a break to work in private investigation.
“At heart I’m an investigator. I was an out-of-work filmmaker after my second film, and I needed to earn a living, and I had the opportunity to work for a private investigator — actually one of the best private investigators in America, and I did it for three years. It saved my life really, because it provided an income and a job when there were really no jobs available to me in the film business.”
Jon Favreau Believes Traditional Progressive News Doesn’t Give Action To Listeners
Crooked Media co-founders and "Pod Save America" hosts, Jon Favreau and Tommy Vietor spoke to Variety's editor-at-large Kate Aurthur, about why they created a progressive media outlet — with Favreau saying it's partly due to the lack of activism from traditional outlets.
“A lot of the news, and even some progressive news, can leave you feeling a little helpless because it doesn’t give you the tools and information to do something about the problems that we see on the nightly news every single day. We wanted to fuse together progressive news and journalism with activism so we could actually give people the tools and information to change the world around them.”
Stanley Nelson Wants Us to Remember How Many People Are In Prison Every Day
Stanley Nelson, director of “Attica,” hopes that his documentary reminds viewers that incarcerated people are human, too. The documentary focuses on the 1971 prison rebellion that remains the deadliest in American history.
“As we're talking, there's 2 million people in prison in the United States. They're going to go to bed in prison tonight. They're going to wake up in prison tomorrow morning, you know? think about those people. What prisons are meant to do in so many ways, in the United States and in the world, they accomplish. They want to lock people up and have us forget about them. And we do that to a large extent. So I hope that at the very least, makes people think about the fact that people are in prison right now.”
Diversifying the Film Industry Requires Giving Marginalized Communities “A Leg Up”
Nelson also spoke about the importance of mentorship, especially when it comes to portraying “the truth” on screen through documentary filmmaking. 12 years ago, he launched a documentary lab for emerging documentarians of color attached to his production company Firelight Films.
“We wanted to think about was, how do we give people a leg up? How do we give people a start? Not only myself but so many filmmakers were serving as mentors — informal mentors to other filmmakers and especially filmmakers of color. People would call me up, literally out of the blue, just saying, ‘I saw a film that you made and, uh, you know, you’re a Black filmmaker, I’m a Black guy, could you be my mentor?’ And it was not only me, it was other filmmakers, too. And so we wanted to try to think about institutionalizing this and making it something that was more of a program instead of just ad-hoc or catch as catch-can. And that became the idea for the lab.”
Sam Pollard Said It’s Impossible To Not Have Personal Feelings Involved in Documentaries
When speaking with Clayton Davis, Variety’s film awards editor, documentarians R.J. Cutler from “Billie Eilish: The World’s A Little Blurry,” Sacha Jenkins from “Wu-Tang Clan: Of Mics and Men,” Sam Pollard from “MLK/FBI,” Liz Garbus from “I’ll Be Gone In The Dark” and Dawn Porter from “Rise Again: Tulsa and the Red Summer,” discussed the emotional truths behind documentary filmmaking.
Pollard said that when making such documentaries, it’s impossible to not get emotionally invested.
“You can’t help but bring your own personal feelings in when making a film. You’ve got to bring your personal feelings — that’s what makes these films different and unique. If you don’t bring your own personal perspective to the material, than you’re just a journeyman filmmaker who does what they’re told.”
