Call out to Australian Female Cinematographers ~ Research Request from Erika Addis

Hi everyone,

I hope this finds you well and busy.

I’ve been very occupied with the new one year Advanced Diploma in Cinematography Essentials course I’m teaching at AFTRS, which is going well.

Thanks everyone who responded to the last call out about who’s been doing what, it was a terrific read, I’m sure you’ll all agree.

Now, I’m researching how many women cinematographers (in Australia) could potentially be interested in shooting on reality TV shows, if there was an opportunity to do so. Documentaries have the highest levels of female shooters of any area in the screen business, and reality TV shows involve documentary style shooting as well as all the controlled studio set ups.

At present, as I understand it, there are no women shooting or sound recording on any of them.

Can you give me a brief reply if you are interested, and indeed if you have tried to get on a show and what you did and what the outcome was.

Looking forward to hearing from you,

regards

Erika
