MediaFest is an annual conference designed to investigate specific areas of media that influence and inform contemporary debate. This year’s MediaFest conference will consider and explore the variety of ways in which the roles of women are identified, deconstructed and portrayed.

We have a full programme sessions providing a variety of opinions and discussions looking in detail at: digital revolution; the role of women in the film industry; the supposed sexualisation of culture; women and/in the news. We will also hear from industry insiders about their careers in the media industry.
