*Cynhadledd Ar-lein Gwleidyddiaeth Castio yn y Cyfryngau *

*Dyddiad: 20-21 Tachwedd 2021 *

*Lleoliad: Ar-lein. *

Mae’r gynhadledd /Gwleidyddiaeth Castio yn y Cyfryngau/ yn ddigwyddiad 
deuddydd sy’n rhad ac am ddim a gynhelir gan Gyfadran y Diwydiannau 
Creadigol ym Mhrifysgol De Cymru. Nod y digwyddiad rhyngddisgyblaethol 
hwn yw taflu goleuni ar gastio yn y cyfryngau fel arfer myrdd ac 
amlochrog, a chael dealltwriaeth feirniadol ddyfnach ohono. Mae'r 
gynhadledd yn olrhain hanes castio o bob cwr o'r byd ac yn mynd i'r 
afael â dadleuon allweddol cyfredol y mae castio yn y cyfryngau yn eu 
hwynebu heddiw, gan archwilio systemau castio a hunaniaeth y castiau 
hynny, neu a ymyleiddiwyd, ar draws y cyfryngau yn ymwneud â rhyw, hil, 
rhywioldeb, dosbarth, oedran, anabledd, a/neu genedligrwydd.


Fel digwyddiad ar-lein rydym yn falch iawn o gael ystod o gynrychiolwyr 
a mynychwyr rhyngwladol, gan ychwanegu dyfnder pellach at yr astudiaeth 
o gastio yn y cyfryngau trwy gwmpasu amryw bynciau eang gan gynnwys 
cynrychioliadau cyfryngau, prosesau castio o fewn cenedligrwydd penodol, 
dadleuon ynghylch amrywiaeth a chynhwysiant, rôl enwogion, ac 
ymgysylltiad y gynulleidfa â chastio. Rydym hefyd yn hynod falch o gael 
ysgolheigion o fri rhyngwladol, Dr Kristen J. Warner (Prifysgol Alabama) 
a Dr Shelley Cobb (Prifysgol Southampton) fel prif siaradwyr ein 
digwyddiad. Wrth wneud hynny, ein nod yw cefnogi sgyrsiau a 
pherthnasoedd ystyrlon rhwng y byd academaidd, diwydiant a chyrff 
allanol ehangach sy'n effeithio ar wybodaeth ysgolheigaidd a 
diwylliannau cynhyrchu o fewn y diwydiannau creadigol.

/The Politics of Casting in Media /is//two-day free-to-attend conference 
hosted by the Faculty of Creative Industries at the University of South 
Wales. The goal of this interdisciplinary event is to shed light on, and 
gain a deeper critical understanding of, media casting as a myriad and 
multifaceted practice. The conferences traces histories of casting from 
around the globe and addresses current key debates that casting in media 
faces today, exploring systems of casting and the identities of those 
cast, or indeed marginalised, across media pertaining to gender, race, 
sexuality, class, age, disability, and/or nationality.


As an online event we are delighted to have a range of international 
delegates and attendees, adding further depth to the study of media 
casting by covering various wide-reaching topics including media 
representations, processes of casting within specific nationalities, 
debates around diversity and inclusion, the role of celebrity, and 
audience engagement with casting. We are also extremely delighted to 
have internationally renowned scholars Dr Kristen J. Warner (University 
of Alabama) and Dr Shelley Cobb (University of Southampton) as our event 
keynotes. In doing so, we aim to support meaningful conversations and 
relationships between academia, industry, and wider external bodies that 
impacts both scholarly knowledge and production cultures within the 
creative industries.
