The SCGC is excited to have Erica Procunier,  screen composer and board member of the Screen Composers Guild of Canada,  representing Canadian Screen Composers at Whistler Film Festival’s; Women on Top: Making Media Equitable.  At this panel Erica will be  speaking about composing and gender equality and diversity within our sector, which will be the first time that composers have been invited to speak alongside other advocates for gender and diversity, and this is also the first study to examine the professional landscape of female Screen Composers in Canada.
