Inclusive Representation in Film and Tv
This course will interrogate the representation of people and communities across a range of intersectional identities in film and television through the lens of creators. Through readings, screenings and discussions students will examine how marginalized groups have been represented on screen, identifying harmful and stereotypical depictions and erasures from the past to the present day. Students will learn creative tools and tactics to combat harmful representation and implement these tactics in their own creative work. Emphasis will be placed on the importance of research, lived experience, and authenticity to ensure inclusive and equitable representation across all media platforms.
