Rabia Chaudry, Undisclosed & Serial Podcast: how true crime podcasts are bringing real justice

When Rabia Chaudry approached a journalist to tell the story of her friend Adnan Syed, all she hoped for was to find new evidence to use in an appeal against his conviction for the murder of Hae Min Lee. What she got was Serial – the podcast that became an international phenomenon. This is the story of how that show was made, and how Rabia, an immigration lawyer, is using technology to fight injustices in the US legal system, including through her own blockbusting podcast series Undisclosed. She also talks about her work as an executive producer on HBO’s The Case Against Adnan Syed documentary, and reveals her role in a new podcast for Netflix.

Charmaine Chan, LucasFilm: making Disney+ new Star Wars show The Mandalorian

If you’ve watched Star Wars VIII: The Last Jedi, Marvel’s Black Panther and Captain America Civil War, Jurassic World, or a whole host of other big-budget Hollywood movies in the past decade or so, you will have watched Charmaine Chan’s work. But if she’s good at her job – and she is – you probably won’t have even realised. Charmaine is a lead compositor for Industrial Light and Magic, the visual effects house owned by Lucasfilm (in turn owned by Disney) which has been responsible for bringing superheroes, Jedi and boy wizards to life. Most recently she’s been working on Disney’s hotly-anticipated Star Wars spin-off TV series, The Mandalorian, launching on the same day as this podcast episode (it’s as if we planned it!) on Disney’s new streaming service Disney+. Charmaine is also a passionate advocate of Women in the movie business, who has launched a video series, WomeninVFX.com, aimed at highlighting the work of women across her industry. In this episode of Women Tech Charge, Charmain chats to Anne Marie about her journey as a ‘queer woman of colour’ in an industry which, she says, needs to work harder to achieve greater diversity both on- and off-screen. Please remember to subscribe to Women Tech Charge on Apple Podcasts, Acast or wherever you get your podcasts.

Jenny Griffiths MBE, SnapTech: where DID she get that dress?

She combined this with a love of fashion to create a pioneering engine which powers searches for high street fashion giants such as ASOS, TopShop and Gap. She started out wanting to be an artist - but became a computer scientist, pioneer of machine learning and computer vision, and was awarded an MBE for her services to digital innovation in the fashion industry.
