About Bérénice

Since 2021, I have been supporting creatives in the preparation and optimization of their editorial projects.

I mainly work on manuscripts and video games as a proofreader, script doctor/beta reader, but I can also work on other media, such as articles, social media posts, screenplays, etc.

I also completed a proofreader training course at the École française de Lecteur-Correcteur in 2022 to be able to proofread all types of writing professionally.

Education

  • Proofreader
    École française de Lecteur-Correcteur
    2022
  • Master 2 - Media, Gender, and Cultural Studies
    Sorbonne-Nouvelle
    2021
    Descriptif de la formation : "Le Master 2 Médias, Genre et Cultural Studies entend former des spécialistes des enjeux de genre, de sexe, de race, de classe ou d’âge, enjeux souvent intiment liés les uns les autres, dans les cultures médiatiques contemporaines. Il étudie les processus de construction des identités, les jeux d’assignation et de contestation dans les espaces médiatiques comme dans les pratiques en lien avec les médias, en abordant les questions de l’accès des subalternes et des minorités à la production, les inégalités de représentation dans les médias, les effets de cadrage, l’appropriation par les publics. A l’heure des mouvements anti-harcèlement et des luttes antidiscriminatoires le master n’oublie pas d’inclure une analyse réflexive des politiques féministes et d’affirmation de la diversité, dont les effets sur les conflits dans la sphère publique sont désormais débattus."
