Young Women’s Mentoring Program visit The Department of Film & Media.  

The program was hosted by Professor Tami Gold. Prof. Gold spoke to 50 young women about her work as an independent documentary filmmaker.

Guest speakers:

Karen Ranucci, from Democracy Now, will talk about journalism and how it is the duty of journalists to look deeper into news stories.  She will talk about Democracy Now and why this kind of independent media is important.  Karen will present a few video clips  produced by women journalists/filmmakers — the story looks behind the arrest of “terrorists” in Newberg and Albany.  http://www.democracynow.org/2010/10/6/entrapment_or_foiling_terror_fbis_reliance

IMA Alumnae Clarisa James and Sha Sha Feng speak about their experience in media and the organization DIVAS for Social Justice they co-founded.

Special Thanks to the F&M Tech Terns for assisting setup, filming, and photography for this event.

IMA Student Sasha Wortzel’s screening

Join Sasha Wortzel on Wednesday November 10th for a screening of her film,
Paint It Again at MIX, the 23rd New York Queer Experimental Festival
at Theater for the New City 151 First Avenue in Manhattan
It will screen as part of a shorts program described here:
7 pm – From Chaos to Sanctum Sanctorum & Back Again
Some transform chaos into a sanctum sanctorum, be it a downtown LA street corner, an interior of a shared domicile, or street-level exterior doorways, while others link the impact of city growth and jarring structural change, with the disruption of their own inner emotional architecture. This is a screening of reflections provoked and inspired by the indelible diary of time & place. . .
