<itunes:subtitle>THE FUTURE OF REAL: E-MEDIA, I-MEDIA, WHAT MEDIA, WHOSE MEDIA?</itunes:subtitle>

<itunes:summary>Why should documentary filmmakers care about pod-casting, video i-pods, mobile phone content delivery, VOD, broadband, cross-platform distribution? Are digital distribution technologies opening up new audiences, new sources of production funding? Or simply asking media artists to provide more versions of their content for the same--or less--amount of money?
 
The session will be introduced by Nick DeMartino, Sr. Vice President for Media and Technology at American Film Institute and moderated by John Bracken, Program Officer for The John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation.
 
Featured panelists include:
Linda Good Bryant, Multi-media Artist and Activist
Albie Hecht, President, World Wide Biggies/Shine Global Foundation
Debra May Hughes, President and Chief Operating Officer, Public Interactive
