Practical Accessibility on Visual Aids
Thu 4/2 • 12PM - 1PM PDT RSVP
Event Organized by the UC Office of the President Created for beginners and non-specialists, this webinar series offers practical guidance for improving the accessibility of everyday digital content. Sessions focus on basic techniques and built-in tools you can start using right away to make your content more accessible. Presentations often contain a unique hybrid of static documents and an accompanying live presentation or talk. This interface of live discussions along with a displayed visual document creates a unique tension for accessibility. In this session we will discuss ways to ensure not long that your slide deck is accessible, but that the whole presentation experience is as accessible as possible.

The Night of the Hunter
Sun 4/5 • 7PM PDT
Billy Wilder Theater
A Depression era-set Southern Gothic thriller, The Night of the Hunter tells an adult story through the eyes of children. Actor-turned-director Charles Laughton described it as a “fairy tale of the Big Bad Wolf’s pursuit of the Little Pigs.” Robert Mitchum stars as the wolf in preacher’s clothing pursuing the two children of a widow (Shelley Winter) who know about a stash of ill-gotten loot. A dream-like work thanks in part to the unique cinematography by Stanley Cortez, it turns feverishly on dualities — heaven and hell, good versus evil, the sacred and profane — while paying homage to the silent era with Lillian Gish also starring.—Theater Manager Lauren Brown Director: Charles Laughton. Screenwriters: James Agee, Charles Laughton. With: Robert Mitchum, Shelley Winters, Lillian Gish.
