I'm hoping you might be able to let colleagues, especially in production programs, know about this once-a-year event. I'm really proud of the lineup this year; I think it's an extraordinary group of people. Thanks for any help you can give in letting people know before it's too late! The Center for Social Media is sponsoring the Making Your Media Matter conference on Feb. 7-8 here at AU, which is geared towards established and aspiring filmmakers, non-profit communications leaders, funders and students looking to learn and share cutting-edge practices for creating media that matters.
