BET+ has given a 10-episode series order to Birth of Cool, a high school dramedy series from creators Jule Taylor (Creed II, They Cloned Tyrone) and Tony Rettenmaier (They Cloned Tyrone), Macro Television Studios (Raising Dion, Gentefied) and Lena Waithe’s Hillman Grad Productions (Queen and Slim, The Chi, Twenties).

Last week, at a talkback session between Lena Waithe and a group of film students, one particularly burning query emerged: "How do I get funding to make something?" "That’s the million-dollar question," said the multihyphenate talent, noting that lack of adequate financial resources is a problem that plagues nearly all filmmakers. So when the job listings company Indeed approached Waithe’s production company, Hillman Grad, with a million-dollar question of its own, she jumped at the opportunity to form a partnership.

Lena Waithe is looking for the next generation of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) filmmakers. The actor, producer and Emmy-winning writer, Hillman Grad Productions is partnering with Indeed to launch the “Rising Voices” initiative which showcases the power of how jobs change our world.
