c3:VisionLAB Presents - SOA 2010: State of the Arts Symposium

Evolving the Future through the Power of Arts and Media to Ignite Global Change Through an Extraordinary One-Day Event!

    LOS ANGELES, CA, May 21, 2010 /Movies and Video PR News/ -- c3:VisionLAB is pleased to present the first in a series of thought-provoking SO! (State Of )Conferences - State of the Arts 2010 (SOA). SOA 2010, a one-day event, will be held at the Los Angeles Center Studios on Saturday, June 19th, 2010, as well as be available virtually on-demand to a global audience.

SOA 2010 brings together a multi-disciplinary mix of experts to explore future trends in arts, media, communications and technology with a focus on the conscious use of creativity and its transformative power to drive positive global change. The symposium is the first in a series designed to deliver cutting edge research trends on Arts and Media, to spark important dialogue about shaping the future and, additionally, to act as a catalyst for the development of international collaborative projects centered around solution to global challenges. SOA 2010 will not only highlight innovation and project future trends in Arts and Media, but also bring an extraordinary cross-section of top leaders in unscripted conversations about the impact Arts and Media have on shaping society and human evolution. Panelists include industry professionals from leading Educational Institutions such as USC, Directors of Arts Organizations and Foundations, as well as recognized Directors and Producers to high-level Media Executives from companies such as Sony Pictures, Lionsgate, Producers Guild of America, and global change leaders from GreenHouse Holdings, Creative Visions Foundation and more.

"Arts and Media are powerful tools that go beyond just being entertainment. Now more than ever we as creators have the power to really implement positive change with both the content we create and how we design the future of entertainment," states c3:VisionLAB Director and SOA 2010 Executive Producer, Alexandra Sokol. "With today's expansive technology, we have the power to inspire, communicate, and transform. We need to use this power wisely. I believe we stand at a crossroads...that the future is going to change no matter what, for better or for worse. We can either happily watch it change, or take the influence of our mediums and actually CREATE the future we want. I think it's time for us to step up to the plate and take responsibility for what we create, with important messages, much like 'Avatar' did, and 'Star Trek' before it. We CAN create exciting and audience-engaging, emotionally-driven Art and Media that also serves to help shift peoples' minds and catalyze this change."

SOA 2010 delivers 5 panel sessions designed with a uniquely fresh perspective on the future of Arts, Media, Communications and Technology, followed Saturday evening by a networking party featuring the latest in innovative entertainment and immersive media, including performances of BELLA GAIA, by Kenji Williams.

Ticket price for full symposium access, including evening performances and party, are being offered at $350. Discounts are available by Special VIP Invitation prior to May 25, 2010 by emailing invitation@c3so.com, as well as nonprofit and organizational discounts.
