The 13th annual Emerging Cinematographers Awards was held recently and not surprisingly only one out of the eight winners was a woman. The winners were chosen from 60 submissions by guild members. Since women account for only 4% of cinematographers, it’s tough for a woman to rise up and be noticed.
Things need to change.
Congrats to Julie Kirkwood for the honor. Here’s a an interview with her (from Facebook no less) on how she got into the business and you can check out her work here.
