ABOUT OUR
SOLUTION
WHAT WE DO.
Rewrite the BiLine aims to rewrite the narrative on bi+ people and non-nuclear families in film, television, and the media through script-to-screen consulting, public education, and investment in bi+ voices in order to create lasting social and political change.
Script to Screen Consulting.
We create authentic and accurate bi+ characters and ensure effective production strategies for bi-normative cinema. To do this, we work with writers, filmmakers, and actors from script to screen. We organize meet-ups or roundtables between bi+ people and filmmakers as the starting point to develop ideas and explore potential storylines. We then offer script edits and provide ongoing consultation on and off set.
Public Education.
We produce reports, best practice guides, and public panels to spark industry dialogue on how to create better bi+ characters and portray diverse families with openness, compassion, and accuracy.

Investment in Bi+ Voices.
Biphobia in television, film, and the media is rooted in a lack of representation of bi+ people in the entertainment industry, and more specifically in positions of power. We know that whoever tells the story, shapes the narrative. Through fellowships for emerging writers and partnerships with news agencies, we provide a platform for bi+ people to help shape the political and cultural conversations of our time.
Policy Change.
By working in coalition with bi+ advocates, chosen family advocacy groups, and allies, we advance policy change that increases funding for and resourcing of our communities.
