SUCCESS STORIES
You have to make films that have gone to prestigious film festivals to really get the notice. Making Blood and Glory through WIM and having it premiere at Tribeca and be in official selection at Oscar qualifying Indy Shorts and HollyShorts have made a difference. The next project I direct, I’ll be able to pool together more resources because now those accolades are credited to the film we made.
I’m feeling very encouraged by the Illumination training workshop and Women In Media as an organization.
“….. I wish there had been a resource like this in the city I started in – glad to be here now connecting with so many enthusiastic and talented up and coming women and non-binary folks.”
Women in Media took the pandemic as an opportunity to up its game
and create more events, booking presenters who are not only tip-top in the field, but willing to provide critical insights and unprecedented access to WIM members.
I really feel like WIM is a place for me!!
Out of many organizations that support female minority in the entertainment industry WIM is the one that really does things in the right way. It gathers the right kind of professionals, helps forming successful relationships among them and creates actual work opportunities for many women!
The feeling of professional support is really valuable.
I would definitely recommend WIM for the full calendar of interesting industry events, networking, the hire these women focalizing which is excellent, for all the hard work Tema and her staff put in to promoting our visibility and hirability as female filmmakers, and definitely for the opportunity to take part in training courses such as this (DaVinci Resolve 15).
I’m really proud to be a part of Women in Media.
So often in our industry, it’s “who you know” that gets you opportunities, and Women in Media helps you grow a solid network of professionals that are interested in improving the gender gap in media production. It also provides opportunities to enter into festivals and network with some of the greatest.
Thank you for the amazing opportunity to be a part of the Da Vinci Resolve 3 day program. It was extremely informative and I feel so proud to be a part of it. Thank you so much for helping us as creatives become confident in tasks we have felt intimated to touch upon.
WIM is great.
I love that you consider every department in all your activities and events and that so much of it is working to actually get people hired. And it’s effective!
Women in Media is a great group.
Very active in creating change. I always come away from events they organize or co-organize having had a great experience.
I have never felt so highly “in demand” until I joined the WIM Crew List.
It shifted my slow non-union career as a Freelance Producer/AD into the fast lane. It’s great to have such an effective resource for work and fellowship. The WIM group has kept me informed and motivated with all of the events, news and success of its members.
