Each program includes questions taken from a live studio audience consisting of students in the film and film studies division at George Mason University. Covering all aspects of the filmmaking process, each program is designed to enlighten students and take them through all the steps to make it in film. From the roles of sound editors to assistant directors, scriptwriters to location managers, cinematographers to producers, webisode producers to film critics and documentary filmmakers to actors, they'll discover the role of each position and what it takes to make it in the business. ROSHINI THINAKARAN is a filmmaker with National Geographic. Her focus is on regions devastated by war. Through her travels she has met women who are dedicated to moving on with their lives, supporting their families and rebuilding their homelands. "My goal is to bring awareness to women who are making real strides and to eventually build schools in these countries, for both girls and boys. If you dont empower people with education, societies will break down." Women at the Forefront is Thinakarans film project, which reveals a strong womens movement-born of oppression and hardship - happening all around the world.
