I would be more than happy to have more women on our production team but they seem to gravitate towards acting roles the most. I haven't found much serious interest. But this my own small limited experience from a micro budget production.

Taunya Gren

Then you're looking in the wrong places, Michael. I know a lot of women who are experienced, talented and looking for positions in DP, director, producer and editor. Perhaps you need to put it out there more.

I agree that the gender bias isn't because the production team with feet on the ground don't want to hire women. It's much more nuanced than that or it would be easy to overcome the barriers, which have been in place since the 1920's. It is a multifold issue that I've witnessed, experienced and hear...

Hi, so in order to help make my community a better place I decided that Clearfield needed an art house theater to show indie movies, foreign films and documentaries. We partnered with the Community Arts Center and now we're showing movies in Clearfield that you can't find in your local megaplex. Thi...
