Creators on GRID TV
GRID TV exists because independent creators make work worth watching. This section is their part of the platform: a page per filmmaker, director, producer or musician, listing the titles of theirs that stream on GRID TV and, where the creator has supplied it, their own biography, links and story.
We do not write biographies on a creator's behalf. If you have work on GRID TV and want your profile filled out — bio, photo, company, website, social links — email watchgridtv@gmail.com and we'll publish exactly what you send us.
Creator profiles
Oscar Micheaux
Writer · Director · Producer
Oscar Micheaux (1884–1951) was the most prolific Black American filmmaker of the silent era and one of the first independent producer-directors in the United States. He wrote, financed, directed and distributed his own features, selling shares in his productions directly to investors and booking the finished films himself.

Charlie Chaplin
Director · Writer · Performer
Charlie Chaplin (1889–1977) began in music hall and moved into film with Keystone Studios in 1914, quickly taking control of writing and directing his own shorts. He later co-founded United Artists so that he and his fellow filmmakers could distribute their own work — an early, direct argument for creator ownership.
