Alpha Tyler got her start in casting as an intern on James Cameron’s “Titanic.” Since then, she’s worked on shows like “Martin” and as the casting director for Tyler Perry. Ready for a career change, Alpha became a professor of performing arts at SCAD in 2016 and is also the faculty adviser for SCAD’s Casting Office. Alpha talks about her career path and explains how SCAD’s Casting Office acts as a resource for students and alumni. The school is the only academic institution in the country offering a minor in casting.

Plus, reporter Nicole Carr talks about her investigation for ProPublica that revealed texts sent by film executive Ryan Millsap in which he shared racist and antisemitic sentiments.
