MEDIA CENTER ORIGINATORS Katherine Oliver Katherine Oliver is the commissioner of the New York City Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment, which consists of the Office of Film, Theatre and Broadcasting, supporting film and TV production; NYC Digital, which works to realize New York City’s potential as the world’s leading digital city; and NYC Media, the City’s official TV, radio and online network. Under Oliver’s leadership, the agency has worked to revitalize New York City’s entertainment and digital media industries with film and television now employing 130,000 New Yorkers and generating an annual direct spend of $7.1 billion. As part of the strategy to diversify the City’s economy, the agency has led the way with innovative initiatives, including the “Made in NY” logo, awarded as a mark of distinction to qualified projects filmed in the five boroughs. The City of New York is the only city to provide free advertising in subways, in Taxi-TV and on bus shelters to eligible productions through its Marketing Credit. Oliver has also established an array of workforce development and educational programs, like the “Made in NY” PA Training Program, and overseen the creation of the “Made in NY” Media Center, a centralized hub for the media industry to collaborate. Prior to her appointment, Oliver served as General Manager of Bloomberg Radio and Television. 3 Joana Vicente Joana Vicente has served as Executive Director of the IFP for five years, where she has advanced its 35-year mission of sustaining innovative content creation and community building across multiple programs. Under Vicente's leadership, the IFP was selected to develop and operate the Made in NY Media Center by IFP in partnership with the Mayor's Office of Media and Entertainment and the New York City Economic Development Corporation. Prior to the IFP, Vicente and her partner Jason Kliot produced/executive produced over forty films by such acclaimed directors as Jim Jarmusch, Miguel Arteta, Brian De Palma, Hal Hartley, Steven Soderbergh, Nicole Holofcener, and Todd Solondz. She has co-founded three separate and unique film production entities over the course of her career. These include Open City Films, Blow Up Pictures, the first digital production company in the United States, and HDNet Films, an award-winning digital production company founded with Mark Cuban and Todd Wagner. Vicente's films have garnered numerous accolades and awards, including twenty-three Independent Spirit Award nominations and four wins. In 2007, she was the recipient of the Made in NY Award for individuals who have made outstanding contributions to New York City's entertainment industry. Vicente graduated from the Masters program at The Catholic University of Portugal with a degree in Philosophy and began her career as the press attaché for the Portuguese delegate-and former Prime Minister of Portugal-at the European Parliament.

  • Saturday, September 23, 2017 Letter from the Presenting Sponsor
    present the Environmental Media Awards Celebrating OUTSTANDING achievement within the ENTERTAINMENT and ENVIRONMENTAL communities #EMAAWARDS Saturday, September 23, 2017 Letter from the presenting sponsor Good evening ladies and gentleman, On behalf of Toyota and Lexus, welcome to the 27th annual Environmental Media Awards! Tonight we are honored to serve as presenting sponsors and celebrate the 17th anniversary of our partnership with the Environmental Media Association. Over the past 17 years, we’ve helped honor the thought leaders that inspire millions to lead more environmentally conscious lives. Tonight we continue to celebrate the efforts of the entertainment industry and celebrities that shape our culture. After all these years, we are still inspired by EMA’s efforts to promote environmental awareness using the powerful medium of entertainment. Tonight we’ve brought an inspiring vehicle line up to the party. The 2017 Toyota Mirai hydrogen fuel cell vehicle returns to the green carpet. As one of the world’s first mass-produced hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles, the Toyota Mirai is a four-door, mid- size sedan with performance that fully competes with traditional internal combustion engines – but uses no gasoline. Instead, Mirai creates electricity on demand using hydrogen, oxygen and a fuel cell, and emits nothing but water vapor in the process. Lexus is excited to showcase its all-new hybrid luxury sedan, the LS 500h. With smooth power and an estimated 33 miles per gallon on the highway, it has a range of more than 600 miles of luxurious driving. On sale in February 2018 with a starting price around $80,000, the LS 500h will be the luxury sedan of choice for environmentally minded drivers.
