In recognition of Women's History Month, we're putting a spotlight on women who are leaders in tech or leveraging technology in new ways.
On this episode of Connected Nation, we talk with award-winning writer, producer, and director Jessica Mathis (aka Divinity Rose) about taking her craft online in the days of and following the pandemic.
Learn how it changed her approach to making her critically acclaimed project titled “Triggered.” Plus, we explore how it’s informed her screenwriting work since, what challenges remain for filmmakers, and what she sees on the horizon for movie making *outside* of Hollywood’s normal channels.
