Glenn Sparks: Is Media Impact Real?

Welcome to the Cinema of Change podcast with Tobias Deml and Robert Rippberger. Cinema of Change is a magazine and community that challenges the conventions of film and its ability to effect change in the world.

Glenn Sparks wrote one of the most used textbooks for media studies titled: Media Effects Research: A Basic Overview. Over the past 30 years, Glenn has become one of the foremost experts in how media effects individuals and society. In his career in academia, his lectures took him around the world from Canada to Ethiopia. We are pleased to have him join us at Cinema of Change.

We hope you find the conversation interesting and evocative. Subscribe to make sure you don’t miss an episode.

Be the change that you want to see in the world. Then, turn it into cinema.
