Listen "Episode 4: Dr. Arshley Emile"
Episode Synopsis
Welcome to SPARK, a podcast from the South Fulton Institute.
-
In this episode we’ll be talking with Filmmaker Dr. Arshley Emile.
Dr. Arshley Emile is an award winning documentary director and cinematographer with 7 years to his credit. His love and passion for filmmaking was something he was aware of as early as 8 years old, but it was not until he embarked on his dissertation on racism in public schools, that he realized that his admiration for visual arts spanned well beyond the classroom. Instead of just going the traditional route of dissertation writing, Dr. Emile ventured on a journey that would eventually lead to a career focused on film. Today Dr. Emile is a full time creator. He has already been selected for numerous film festivals and has recently won Best Documentary for 2022 in the Santa Barbara International Film Festival, all of which highlights how remarkably gifted he is considering his short time in the business. Furthermore, Dr. Emile has projects ranging from television news programs, corporations, music videos, public school settings, as well as nonprofit organizations. His primary focus is to help portray the black and brown community in a more positive light as opposed to the narrative historically perpetuated by the general public. He is competent in all aspects of the production process from initial stages of researching and organizing production to script writing, interviewing, camera and editing. Dr. Emile hopes to one day film and produce feature films and to have his own soundstage campus where both young and seasoned filmmakers can gather and create.
