    1 The Bleeding Edge, an independent documentary directed by Kirby Dick and produced ​ by Amy Ziering through their production company, Chain Camera Pictures, unearths systematic corruption within the “$400 billion medical device industry” (The Bleeding Edge 2018). The film takes a deep dive into the healthcare impacts of medical device “innovation” (Dick 2018). Both Dick and Ziering specialize in investigative journalism and documentary having produced the Emmy Award-winning and Academy Award-nominated documentary, The Invisible War (The ​ ​ Bleeding Edge 2018). In all of their documentaries, Dick and Ziering focus on issues of “breaking news,” aiming to inform public opinion, and influence policy (Fuchs 2018). According to Ziering, in an interview by No Film School, when she and Dick decide to make a film they “first get intrigued, then outraged, and then [they] decide to make a movie” (Buder 2018). In the case of The Bleeding ​ Edge, the topic of the film arose when one of Chain Camera Picture’s producers, Amy Herdy, ​ came forward with “this crazy story” about one of her neighbors, who had experienced complications due to an untested medical device (Buder 2018). The disbelief following the ​ ​ interview resulted in an in-depth investigation into this “breaking news,” where research was conducted, and interviews with survivors, professionals, scholars, and doctors were recorded (Fuchs 2018). This information was then synthesized and analyzed, before getting compiled into a commercially consumable film that informs the public of the fractured health system that “has devolved into [a] business” (Fuchs 2018) The Bleeding Edge is an independent film, meaning that,t was not produced in ​ ​ ​ Hollywood and is not backed by any super PACs or the government (Grove 2014).

Ending Sexual Violence in One Generation Executive summary This report analyzes progress in the movement to end sexual violence and how it is shaping public conversation and, ultimately, our culture in how we address this important societal issue. Although much work remains to be done, significant accomplishments have been made and additional positive changes are underway. Understanding this watershed moment and the potential to create real and lasting cultural change requires a nuanced discussion about many on-going contributing factors, including the following: • Media – including entertainment and news channels – help shape the national conversation about sexual violence. These platforms have the ability to tell more complete stories that enhance the public’s understanding of sexual violence and break down misconceptions and myths.

    DICK, Kirby and ZIERING, Amy. 2016. The Hunting Ground. The inside story of sexual assault on American college campuses. México: Hot Books, 188 pp. doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.18543/djhr-3-2018pp209-214 The Hunting Ground started to initially be a documentary released in 2015 daring to present on the big screen, the sexual violence on the United States college campuses. The filmmakers Kirby Dick and Amy Ziering were the Academy Award winners of the film “The Invisible war”, which tackles the sexual violence happening in the army context. While they were running along the United States college campuses screening “The Invisible War” and discussing about the silence perpetuated into the army, students were raising their hands from the public, claiming the gender violence also exits within the academy. According to its producers, The Hunting Ground is the consequence of directly interviewing around 70 people on camera and more than 200 in off-camera dialogues. One year after its first release, the documentary’s impact was uncountable. The visionary of this documentary at each university, contributed to trigger discussion about the issue of sexual harassment, started activism among its community and initiating change. While the producers were moving from one campus to another talking about the issue of sexual violence in university, they were always sharing similar situations, meaning listening stories and feeling the students need of being heard, understood and supported. In this sense, the huge amount of screenings around universities have allowed victims to break their silence and speak out about their cases, while joining their power to organize themselves; symbolizing in most cases the strongest fight ever against sexual harassment at their universities.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Press Contact: Brigid Pierce, New Music USA [email protected] More Information: newmusicusa.org Announcing REEL CHANGE: The Fund for Diversity in Film Scoring powered by SESAC and Christophe Beck and managed by New Music USA New York, NY (October 27, 2020) – New Music USA announces the launch of Reel Change: The Fund for Diversity in Film Scoring, powered by SESAC and composer Christophe Beck, and administered by New Music USA.

This fund – which is now accepting applications from US-based composers – supports film projects currently in production, where additional funding and mentoring would help composers at a pivotal moment in their careers. Four to six grants averaging $20,000 will be allocated each year of the program. Supportable expenses include composer compensation, musician fees, recording and sound mastering fees, studio expenses, orchestration, production equipment, and more. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling timeline by an advisory board made up of leading composers of film music, including Christophe Beck, Jongnic “JB” Bontemps, Kris Bowers, Miriam Cutler, Chanda Dancy, Tony Morales, and Pinar Toprak. Members of this advisory board will offer additional support and mentorship for interested applicants. Information and applications are available here. _____________________________________________________________________________________ Composer Christophe Beck says: “For too long, the community of composers who create scores for Hollywood films has been dominated by white men. Throughout my career, I’d been aware of this and told myself that someday, I’d like do something about it.

Jessica Childs Summer Fellows 2017 Mentor: Dr. Meghan Brodie “Theater for Social Justice: Sexual Violence Prevention for College Orientations” My summer fellows project focused on how theater for social justice might be harnessed to reimagine Ursinus College’s sexual assault prevention program for first year orientation. My work was driven by a desire to implement a more structured and inclusive program, one specific to the College’s culture. The first part of the research done was on theater for social justice and theater in education and the advantage that using theater programs has to make messages more clear and accessible to audience members. The second phase of my research examined the college sexual assault epidemic and included books that look at first-hand accounts of mostly women survivors of sexual assault.
