key themes
SEXMONEYMEDIA provides a platform to recognize the vision and champion the achievements of women in media in Canada and around the world; and to carve out opportunities for tomorrow’s young women to contribute to our collective screen culture. Throughout our schedule, SEXMONEYMEDIA will address four key themes:
• Vision and Representation
This theme engages media creators in a dialogue about the presence and absence of women’s vision behind the scenes and on-screen; and explores the power of media creations to inform and influence society.
• Cultural Labour and Markets
How can labour equity invigorate our media industries? Is there room for cultural and social considerations in these powerful, commercially – driven marketplaces. When is an audience more than a market?
•The Unfolding Digital Universe
What opportunities and challenges lie in our still-evolving digital arts and industries? These sessions introduces some of the women who are blazing trails in every facet of these new technologies.
•Remedies, Policies, and Strategies
Where would Canadian media arts be without government policy and investment? How can we ensure that public investment in our media industries and institutions increasingly reflects and serves a greater diversity of Canadians?
