Why This Producer Created an All-Women Film Festival | NowThis

Only 4% of directors are women — so producer Meredith Finch founded the Nevertheless Film Festival to erase stigmas and spotlight women-made projects. (In partnership with Time’s Up) » Subscribe to NowThis: http://go.nowth.is/News_Subscribe A 2018 report revealed women made up just 4% of directors in the 1200 top-grossing films of 2007-2018. TIME’S UP and USC Annenberg Inclusion Initiative launched the #4PercentChallenge in response, tasking industry members to pledge to work with at least one woman director in a future project. Finch says the problem goes deeper than representation for women directors. Every film in the Nevertheless Film Festival program includes at least 50% female-identifying filmmakers including directors, producers, editors, screenwriters, cinematographers, and more. Finch: 'You know what's like also insane? There was 3 percent of cinematographers of the top movies of between 2016 and 2018 were women 3 percent. And then it was like two point three percent of composers. It was like seven people or something like the numbers are insane. Beyond just the directing and I think that it's really important to talk about that because there are more people that go into making a movie than a director' #TimesUp #Film #Women #News #NowThis #NowThisNews Connect with NowThis » Like us on Facebook: http://go.nowth.is/News_Facebook » Tweet us on Twitter: http://go.nowth.is/News_Twitter » Follow us on Instagram: http://go.nowth.is/News_Instagram » Find us on Snapchat Discover: http://go.nowth.is/News_Snapchat NowThis is your premier news outlet providing you with all the videos you need to stay up to date on all the latest in trending news.
