Tribeca and Chanel have set participants, masterclass advisors, mentors and jurors for their seventh annual Through Her Lens program, supporting women filmmakers, announcing that it will take place from October 12-14.
The creatives and short film projects chosen for the three-day mentorship program, designed to provide industry support, artistic development and funding to “emerging U.S. based self-identifying women and non-binary writers and directors,” include director Annalise Lockhart and writer/producer Mary Glen Fredrick (Anything Valuable), writer/director Maya Tanaka and producer Shuchi Talati (Honolulu), director Caroline Lindy and writer/producer Kate Hamilton (How Did I Get Here), writer/director Tiye Amenechi and producer Satchel Lee (Night Bloom), and writer/director Phumi Morare (Why the Cattle Wait).
Each will benefit from a combination if virtual and in-person, one-on-one mentorship—along with masterclasses focused on script-to-screen development, music composition, costume design, producing, and directing—working with mentors to shape and refine their pitches and projects.

If Satchel Lee was a Real Housewife, her tagline would be, "I'm a fashionable hottie with a smart mouth and a generous heart." No, really, she said so herself. While we work on getting the rising star her own Bravo show, she'll have to settle for being a Golden Globes ambassador for now. That's right: Spike Lee's children, 26-year-old Satchel and 23-year-old Jackson, were named the 2021 Golden Globe Ambassadors. They are expected to help present awards during the Globes ceremony on Sunday, Feb. 28. As a part of their roles, the siblings each chose a charity organization to receive a $25,000 grant from the HFPA. Satchel, the first...

The crazy side of the 90-member Hollywood Foreign Press is back in force. You can always count on the Musical/Comedy category to deliver Golden Globes nomination surprises, but don’t expect Sia’s directing debut “Music” (February 12; 29 percent on Rotten Tomatoes) to turn up on Oscar nominations morning March 15. Ditto Oscar longshots Dev Patel (“The Personal History of David Copperfield”), Anya Taylor-Joy (“Emma”), Rosamund Pike (“I Care a Lot”), James Corden (“The Prom”), Andy Samberg (“Palm Springs”), Jared Leto (“The Little Things”), and Lin-Manuel Miranda (“Hamilton” isn’t Oscar eligible).
The Golden Globes will be broadcast live February 28 with comediennes Amy Poehler and Tina Fey hosting on two coasts, from the usual Globes hub at the Beverly Hilton and New York’s Rainbow room, respectively. Oscar Best Picture eligibility ends February 28. That means this year’s Globe winners have a tiny window to influence Oscar voting.
