The 1999 Visible Evidence Conference is co-sponsored by the UCLA School of Theater Film and Television and the USC School of Cinema-Television

The 1999 Visible Evidence Conference is the seventh in a series of major interdisciplinary conferences focused on the role of film and video as witness to and voice for lived, social reality. The Conferences originate from a center in non-fiction documentary to encompass issues of ethnography, journalism, medical imagining, visible evidence and the law, advocacy, biography and auto-biography, and the art of social representation. We welcome a wide range of perspectives from fields such as anthropology, architecture, art history, ethnic studies, gay and lesbian studies, history, journalism, law, medicine, political science, sociology, urban studies and women studies.
