The suppressed history of America's Black space program, in mockumentary form broadly satirizing Ken Burns and histories of the Negro Baseball Leagues.
Writing
Dead-serious narration about absolutely unhinged 'facts.'
Direction
Nails that slow Ken Burns zoom on nonsense.
Production
Convinced me 'segregated launch facilities' were real for 30 seconds.
Director
Andy Bobrow
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Parodies the actual erasure of Black scientists like Dorothy Vaughan and the West Area Computers at NASA.
Andy Bobrow later wrote for Community; this short's fake-doc energy clearly fed into 'Intermediate Documentary Filmmaking.'
