    WMC INVESTIGATION: 10-YEAR ANALYSIS OF GENDER & OSCAR NOMINATIONS womensmediacenter.com @womensmediacntr WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER ABOUT THE WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER In 2005, Jane Fonda, Robin Morgan, and Gloria Steinem founded the Women’s Media Center (WMC), a progressive, nonpartisan, nonproft organization endeav- oring to raise the visibility, viability, and decision-making power of women and girls in media and thereby ensuring that their stories get told and their voices are heard. To reach those necessary goals, we strategically use an array of interconnected channels and platforms to transform not only the media landscape but also a cul- ture in which women’s and girls’ voices, stories, experiences, and images are nei- ther suffciently amplifed nor placed on par with the voices, stories, experiences, and images of men and boys. Our strategic tools include monitoring the media; commissioning and conducting research; and undertaking other special initiatives to spotlight gender and racial bias in news coverage, entertainment flm and television, social media, and other key sectors. Our publications include the book “Unspinning the Spin: The Women’s Media Center Guide to Fair and Accurate Language”; “The Women’s Media Center’s Media Guide to Gender Neutral Coverage of Women Candidates + Politicians”; “The Women’s Media Center Media Guide to Covering Reproductive Issues”; “WMC Media Watch: The Gender Gap in Coverage of Reproductive Issues”; “Writing Rape: How U.S. Media Cover Campus Rape and Sexual Assault”; “WMC Investigation: 10-Year Review of Gender & Emmy Nominations”; and the Women’s Media Center’s annual WMC Status of Women in the U.S.

  • Three Visions, One World a Japanese Artist and Two Pixar Colleagues Exhibit Side by Side by Alex Chun
    Three visions, one world A Japanese artist and two Pixar colleagues exhibit side by side by Alex Chun Nov 17, 2005 SINCE 2001, Pixar Animation artists Ronnie Del Carmen and Enrico Casarosa have channeled their creative talents into feature films such as the Academy Award-winning "Finding Nemo" and the upcoming "Cars." Their artistic drive, however, doesn't stop when they head for home. With what little time and energy they have left over, Del Carmen and Casarosa have made names for themselves as artists in their own right. This Saturday, Alhambra's Gallery Nucleus will begin exhibiting their drawings and paintings in a show titled "3 Trees Make a Forest." The title of the show has a dual meaning, notes Casarosa, a 34- year-old from Italy who also worked as a storyboard artist on Blue Sky Studio's "Ice Age." Heavily influenced by Japanese culture, Casarosa discovered that the Japanese kanji character for forest is composed of three repeating symbols, each the kanji for tree. More important, the title reflects the fact that Del Carmen and Casarosa's friend Tadahiro Uesugi is coming to the U.S. from Japan for the first time to take part in the show. In Japan, Uesugi is known for working as an assistant to manga artist Jiro Taniguchi and for his fashion illustrations in women's magazines; in the U.S., Uesugi, 39, has attained almost cult-like status within the tightknit animation community. As an artist, "Tadahiro is in a class by himself," says Del Carmen, 45, who was born and raised in the Philippines and won an Annie Award as a storyboard artist for DreamWorks' "Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron." "When I first looked at his work, I was immediately fascinated because it seemed to be of a certain time and place, 1960s France, with all these striking images of girls with long necks, long limbs and short skirts walking in profile," Del Carmen adds.
