Can’t be what you can’t see @gdigm @womeninfilmportraits ・・・ “I love the Geena Davis Institute on Gender in Media they do a lot of studies on representation of women in the media. There was a very telling study they released a year or so ago about women in engineering, leadership, political power positions in movies and it was somewhere around 10% for each of those roles. And, you know, little kids get their ideas from what they watch, so if little girls and boys all over the world are only seeing the same sort of representation of only guys as presidents and engineers and leaders, it’s going to infiltrate them subconsciously and they will think that only guys can do that. You don’t think you can be it if you don’t see it. So, gender parity, both in front of and behind the camera, is so important. That’s why, for me, it’s very important to tell sci-fi stories with women at the forefront, in the future, where they have achieved equality. I want to build that world before it happens so that we can make it real.” -Cidney Hue, Sci-Fi Filmmaker . . . #scifi #bwphotography #blackandwhite #bwphoto #artist #artistry #newyork #nyc #womeninfilm #equality #feminism #womensempowerment #womenpower #girlgang #love #film #filmphotography #filmmaking #indiefilm #actor #actress #writer #writerslife #filmindustry #filmproduction #filmmakers
