Social Impact Entertainment (SIE) has been the talk of the town lately, thanks in large part to industry leaders like Teri Schwartz and Jeff Skoll. And that's a very good thing.
The Oscars are fast approaching, and as is customary, everyone is making their predictions. Most of the debate is centered around which film will take home Best Picture, but this year has a different feel about it. While The Academy has polarized critical opinion over time, it has also admirably adapted to be more inclusive to films that speak to the cultural issues of our times.
Through proper representation, cultural diversity, and equality, Hollywood could make wonders and unravel new ways to elevate the craft of storytelling that entices our imagination, speaks the truth, and brilliantly captures the beauty and struggles of humanity without compromising its structural integrity.
