BLACK LENS
In 2014, Black Lens was created with a singular focus: to spotlight the incredible work of African-American filmmakers by bringing their films to the Milwaukee Film Festival. These filmmakers explore stories and topics that are rooted in the Black community but are relevant to a variety of audiences. Black Lens features fiction and documentary films from emerging and established voices and hosts events that inspire conversation, celebration, and community.
Congratulations to BL on receiving the 2018 grants (Milwaukee Film's Black Lens program has received grants from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and HBO for programming at the 2018 Milwaukee Film Festival.
Black Lens received a $7,500 FilmWatch grant from the Motion Picture Academy — the series' second such grant from the group that gives out the Oscars — and $10,000 from HBO. The premium cable channel will present two of the Black Lens short-film programs at this year's film festival, along with a new juried award honoring diverse local filmmakers. JSOnline)
