It was a joy creating this year’s poster for the Society for Visual Anthropology Film & Media Festival alongside my former USC MVA professor Jenny Cool. Together we created this and other marketing materials for the 2023 American Anthropological Association/Canadian Anthropology Society (AAA/CASCA) yearly meeting in Toronto.
This poster features still images from these 2023 SVA Film & Media Festival films: (Top) Sama in the Forest - directed by Carlos G. Gomez and winner of the “Best Feature” award; (Bottom) Addresses (Direcciones) - directed by Maria Luisa Santos & Carlo Nasisse and winner of the “Best Short - Honorable Mention” award.

The Society for Visual Anthropology’s Film & Media Festival screens work by students, professional anthropologists, and professional filmmakers at the American Anthropological Association’s annual conference. This year’s festival is hosted in the beautiful city of Vancouver, and I can’t wait to present my film alongside other works of visual ethnography at such a critical event. This year’s theme, “Changing Climates,” invites anthropologists and their collaborators to examine how we engage with communities around issues of change over time, including climate change, to envision and build a more equitable future.
