Media Life is a course intended for undergraduate students across campus. Its goal is to make people aware of the role that media play in their everyday life. The key to understanding a "media life" is to see our lives not as lived WITH media (which would lead to a focus on media effects and media-centric theories of society), but rather IN media (where the distinction between what we do with and without media dissolves).

Even the union reps admitted this will cause 7% to 15% of the various Guild members to lose their insurance.
- Terminator Salvation in New Mexico http://newmexicoindependent.com/22883/new-mexicos-brave-new-world-of-film-and-tv-courtesy-of-you A recent Ernst and Young study documented 30 movies produced in New Mexico in 2007, and they generated more than $250 million in spending. There’s a great debate over how many jobs can be traced directly and indirectly to the state’s foray into movies and TV, but one figure cited by a local film booster puts the 2007 sum total at 9,210 jobs. Gov. Richardson liked the idea of luring movies and TV to New Mexico so much that he expanded the incentives package — increasing what had been a 15 percent film production tax rebate to 25 percent. The Democratic governor also led the charge to relax state sales taxes on the industry, and he added a program to subsidize the training of New Mexico residents in so-called “advanced below-the-line” crew positions — a subsidy that amounts to a reimbursement of half of the trainees’ wages.

A lot hinges on contracts, which a federal judge handling the "Watchmen" case deemed at one point "very complex" and "convoluted." "You can have two people look at a document and have two, sometimes three different interpretations," said Dan Black, an entertainment lawyer and partner at Greenberg Traurig. "It's not unusual for two companies to think they own the same property." And that's when there are signed contracts. A New York state judge handling a dispute over whether "Project Runway" can move to Lifetime noted that some of the agreements between The Weinstein Co. and NBC Universal weren't even signed; others were confirmed by e-mail. That led New York Superior Court Judge Richard B. Lowe to write, "the television industry is one which seems to have a disregard for legal formality," and fails to execute long-form license agreements due to hectic production schedules.

- Outsourcing: “The figurative balancing act between creativity and finance is the mainstay for runaway production's continued growth, which has had an annual $10 billion negative impact on the U.S. economy […] the creative benefits come at a cost of depleting revenues towards below the line talent and ancillary businesses in the United States.”
