Featured speeches:
How many lightbulbs does it take to plug in an electric car?
Chris' talk glides through the politics, personalities, and cold hard cash reasons for return of the electric car. Chris shares his role as the filmmaker who caught GM and others destroying thousands of this "disruptive technology" in 2003. Seven years later, he's documenting the incredible return of electric cars for his 2011 doc "Revenge of the Electric Car". This presentation recaps the challenges and then charts the A to Z reasons for their comeback.
How to win friends and influence people with arrests, documentaries, and the art of rhetoric
Chris's shares his journey from college activist in Nevada and California to documentary filmmaker with "Who Killed the Electric Car." What basic arts of persuasion seem to work in whatever medium they are deployed? Along with a good dose of improvisation, Chris dusts off Aristotle's famed tools of rhetoric: pathos, ethos, and logos to help make stories talk whether on the streets or in the theater.
