ABOUT

Tech News Network (TNN) is a current news satire that raises questions about the limitations, ethics and risks of modern technology.  The mission is to offer compelling views on the biases of tech development and question the agendas of tech companies by stretching the reality (by just a bit). Tech News Network will challenge viewers’ media literacy and understanding of modern technology. The pilot production consists of three news stories that are distributed as a narrative short film for film festivals and as a web series.
