SUMMARY:We're All Gonna Die Screening & Director Q+A
DESCRIPTION:Join the Media and Entertainment Business Club for an exclusive screening of We’re All Gonna Die\, and an opportunity to discuss the film with director Freddie Wong\, known for his roles in Video Game High School and RocketJump: The Show. This film was shot on a 500k budget financed through their podcast “Dungeons and Daddies” (As of February 2025\, the podcast had over 66\,000 supporters on Patreon and has been in the top 100 podcasts by listeners on Spotify). The film was then edited and developed a following through the Patreon\, Discord\, and social channels. Finally\, they leveraged their digital community to reach out to independent movie theaters when their original distribution plan with Cinemark fell through. Come and learn about the ups and downs of the independent movie industry as a project like this may be your next step after college!

SUMMARY:Brown Bag Luncheon | Sophia Mueller-Bryson
DESCRIPTION:Behind the Campaign: Negotiating Identity in Advertising Practice\n\nBroadly\, while extensive research has been conducted on consumer responses to advertising\, comparatively little attention has been given practitioner perspectives. Within this underexplored domain\, one area of growing interest concerns the construction of professional identities. Existing studies suggest that the industry has crafted a demographic profile of the “ideal” worker\, prioritizing certain characteristics over others. This presentation will explore research on the experiences of those who do not fit the industry’s glass slipper\, and consider the implications for employees\, organizations\, and society at large.\nThe Fall 2025 Brown Bag Lecture series feature presentations of new works by School of Communication faculty. The series will be held in Wolfson 1021\, from 12:00–1:15 p.m. Please feel free to bring your lunch. Desserts will be provided.
