‘White Noise’ Producer Uri Singer’s TaleFlick Platform Makes Hollywood Overture to Saudi Arabian Storytellers (EXCLUSIVE)
Nick Vivarelli International Correspondent TaleFlick, the online story discovery platform launched by “White Noise” producer Uri Singer and former Netflix executive George Berry, is opening its doors to poets in a move it says is driven by a desire to welcome submissions that “capture the essence, history, and vibrant traditions of Saudi Arabian culture.” Storytelling in the Arab world is traditionally tied to oral history and poetry. The stated goal of opening TaleFlick – which provides writers with a chance to showcase their work to producers and studios – is to build a bridge between Saudi poems and Hollywood.
