Cooperation in Popular Culture
|
On May 24 at the University of Southern California School of Cinema-Television, Ambassador Louise Oliver
addressed the President’s Committee on the Arts and Humanities, as well as representatives from the American
Film Institute, the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural
Affairs, and the Western States Arts Federation. The conference, entitled ‘A Symposium on Film, Television,
Digital Media and Popular Culture,’ addressed achievements and future opportunities for cooperation in these
respective fields. Ambassador Oliver commented on the current age of globalization and how it has affected the
popular culture industry. In this day and age, film, television, and other forms of digital media have the
ability to affect perceptions of culture. They can influence the way people view their own culture and that
of others. Cooperation through popular culture creates a foundation for further global collaboration in other
areas of interest.
