D. Channsin Berry (Chan) is the thought innovator of a new film distribution platform known as, “Film Tours Entertainment”, a concept and global film distribution company he created that connects the new movement of movie premieres of social value to the audience via open dialogue with the director/producer immediately following a screening. “Film Tours” was created as a direct result of a few negative main-stream Hollywood reviews. Mr. Berry felt that “Dark Girls” was a project created to be seen and experienced by African decedents as a springboard for their healing. “My mission in life is to tell our stories from our point of view. It takes Black consciousness to tell our stories the way we need to hear them, and the way we need to see ourselves. It is all about focusing on us as Black people, and we must not allow others to tell us who we are and what we have experienced. I am an image engineer for our people!”
In between his music endeavors, Mr. Berry has directed independent films and documentaries such as, “A Different Shade of Love”,
“My Father’s Music…Jazz” (Documentary for PBS/Cable) and, “The Black Line: Profile of The African-American Man (parts 1, 2, and 3)”. Mr. Berry also produced, “The Sam Cooke Story: Crossing Over”, part of the PBS “American Masters” series, and is currently working on the sequel to “Dark Girls”, titled, “The Yellow Brick Road”, also with Bill Duke. In 2013, Mr. Berry anticipates production of his self- written dramatic feature, “Martin Lane”, starring Oscar nominated actor, Viola Davis and her husband Mr. Julius Tennon.
Mr. Berry has worked in television as Executive Producer/Director on BET’s NY/LA Entertainment Magazine, “All The People”, a talk show in the San Francisco Bay area sponsored by Fox-TV, “Shaq Jam” Hip-Hop concert, sponsored by DirecTV/Fox, “ReMixed”, sponsored by BET, and the Fox entertainment show, “Poker Dome”.
Mr. Berry is the Founder of the D. Channsin Berry Foundation, a non-profit organization whose purpose is to raise funds for LUPUS awareness.
