Cinedapt Launches Casting Call for Neurodivergent Professionals and Industry Experts
Seeking Software Engineers Diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Other Experienced Professionals for "Computer Silenced"
Cinedapt®, a pioneer in patented, award-winning film technology, is inviting professionals diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and other industry experts to participate in Computer Silenced, a feature-length documentary that exposes systemic discrimination in tech hiring and employment. The film seeks software engineers with ASD as well as experienced professionals, including hiring managers, licensed psychiatrists, and legal experts, to provide insights into workplace biases and help promote actionable solutions.
Expanding on the 30-minute game show format of Whiteboard Challenge®, Computer Silenced dives deeper into the pervasive biases that prevent neurodivergent professionals from thriving in hiring processes that often fail to assess their true skills and capabilities. The documentary is designed to challenge outdated practices, advocate for inclusive workplace environments, and promote equity for neurodivergent individuals in tech.
Using its patented Cinedaptive® technology, recognized with prestigious accolades such as The Webby Awards, W3 Awards, and Davey Awards, Cinedapt will personalize Computer Silenced for each viewer, generating trillions of unique film variants to create deeply resonant, empathy-driven experiences.
“We are excited to amplify the untold stories of neurodivergent professionals whose talents often go unrecognized due to systemic biases,” said Michael Kureth, founder of Cinedapt. “With Computer Silenced, we aim to challenge outdated hiring practices and showcase the incredible contributions of these professionals.”
