I’m astounded by the information in this guide. You have literally given us a roadmap on the market for African-American stories. And that query kit is fire. I plan to upgrade my query kit for the scripts I have targeted to work on this year.
Also, this really hit home for me:
He centered Black pleasure and Black mythology—not Black pain—as the spectacle.
This is the direction I’ve always been interested in. We, as members of the black diaspora, have so many unique ways to craft our stories that are rich in our lived experiences – not just as African-Americans, but as human beings. Thanks so much for this, David!
David, this article hit. Framing Ryan Coogler’s Sinners not just as a box office win but as a full-blown myth-buster for Black storytelling was powerful. You made it clear that the opportunity isn’t theoretical. The money, the data, and the infrastructure prove it. What I especially appreciate is that you didn’t stop at celebration. You broke down the terrain, the open doors, the side doors, the traps, the real numbers, and translated inspiration into strategy. The Market Intelligence Guide feels less like a motivational document and more like a tactical blueprint for writers who are serious about building careers, not just writing scripts. Thank you for doing the work to verify, organize, and map this out for us. I’m grateful for the leadership and the clarity.
Appreciation – beyond mere words could convey. Wow, David. This info is a game-changer. Once our craftsmanship is up to par, it’s exhilarating to know there are outlets that crave our material. That took a massive amount of hard work to put all this together. We are grateful and I hope it gives us the fuel to bear down and give birth to something beautiful and moving – like this world has never seen before.
Wow! Love this article, David. What a wealth of information. I agree with Mikell, I have a ton of work to do too. Definitely looking forward to “Working It!” Thank you so much for all of your hard work. Blessings, Z
This is highly informative and I’ve got some homework to do.
The OBS Market Intelligence Guide: 2026 Revised Edition . This is the first gift I have downloaded and studying now. The three realities proved to be simply stupendous, helpful, informative and the second gift. And all of this rounds up to the Math of the Moment as the third gift. In truth, I will be reading this article over and over again. Thank you! This article was strategic at every angle and I am grateful.
