The media we watch, listen to, read, and surf has an enormous impact on what we think and who we are. We are now all players in this digitalized, downloadable, broadband entertainment world as consumers, programmers, and critics. And the future promises change at an even faster pace.
The Kal and Lucille Rudman Institute for Entertainment Industry Studies stands at the crossroads of the creative, business, technological, and cultural issues facing the media of today and tomorrow. With a cross-disciplinary approach, our mission is to foster activities that bring together the resources of Drexel University and the industry to help shape the thinking that will determine tomorrow's entertainment.
