Description
The Independent Web Creators of Canada invite you to an informative
night of important discussion and Q&A! With our panel of experts including YouTubers; Amanda Lee (@AmandaRachLee), Stef Sanjati (@StefSanjati) and Kiran Rai (@KayRay)! We will be chatting about their personal experiences and potential solutions for eradicating sexual harassment on non-union sets in the world of YouTube and web series. What's it like to work in the non-union world with no ACTRA and DGC? Where should we go and what should we do when we experience situations on set? How do we protect our creators in a digital world with no rules?
This is an imperative conversation to have and be a part of. Hope to see you there!
