Trump bashing Hollywood director Ava DuVernay’s film focused advocacy group Array is teaming up with Google to create a $500,000 feature film grant for creatives who hail from what they call “underrepresented communities.”
The endowment, which is known as The Array + Google Feature Film Grant, will allocate funds so that the recipient will be able to produce his or her first full-length feature, according to a report by Deadline.
“Having started my filmmaking journey by self-funding projects, this is a full-circle moment,” DuVernay said. “I’m pleased to partner with Google and Array’s grant advisory committee to identify an emerging writer/director to bring their vision to the screen.”
