The Burbank Arts For All Foundation’s Creative Circles Forum — Media Experts Talk Media Arts: Re-Imagining Burbank Arts Education was held at The Colony Theatre on Thursday evening, March 14. The insightful event, sponsored by Telepictures Productions, was moderated by producer/author/motivational speaker Phil Cooke.

The diverse panel of educators and senior executives in the Media Arts Industry included Bob Mohler, Senior Vice President Digital Media, Telepictures Productions; Jesse Gilbert, Chair of Media Technology, Woodbury University; Jennifer Romolini, Editor-in-chief/Editorial Director, Yahoo! Shine and Yahoo! Lifestyles; and Richard Lightfoot, Media Arts Teacher, Jordan Middle School.
The lively panel discussion took a look at information technology for creative production and the significant changes in how we create and just as importantly, how we consume art and media… and what we can do for Burbank students in preparing them for future careers in this vitally important growing industry.
Following the discussion, there was a hosted wine and cheese reception for the speakers and attendees. All proceeds from the Creative Circles Forum benefit the Burbank Arts For All Foundation, a nonprofit organization whose mission is to ensure every student in Burbank public schools has access to a quality visual and performing arts education as part of their core curriculum.
