DIY video summit

In future of media on November 2, 2007 at 3:15 am

DIY video summit We live in the era of DIY media.

The boundaries of the media industry is melting all around us. In the old days, you could define precisely who is a filmmaker or a journalist, now anyone can be self-appointed member of the media industry.

Reflecting this seismic shift, the University of Southern California School of Cinematic Arts has organized a 24/7 – a DIY Video Summit.

Speakers and participants transcend industry silos. This new breed of DIY filmmakers include academics, activists, installation artists and tech geeks. For them, video is often a means towards some other end, rather than an end in itself.

Check out the eclectic program offerings here.
