I will be joining fellow presenters David Tames (Filmmaker & Media Technologist, Kino-Eye.com) and Anna van Someren (Media Producer, MIT Comparative Media Studies) for a Woods Hole Film Festival seminar called Media Literacy in the 21st Century. The seminar is August 1st at 4PM. For more information, click the image below. Come join us!

Here is a description of the event:

This seminar introduces media makers to the process of critically analyzing popular media including broadcast television, film, and internet video. Much of the media we consume reinforces stereotypes, distorts the news, and distracts from the critical issues of the day. By learning how to look at the media we consume as well as make critically, we can develop an enhanced awareness of how the messages delivered through media influence ourselves, others, and the society we live in. We can harness media to make positive contributors to society, challenge cynicism and apathy, and serve as agents of social change.
