Corporate Partnership Manager, Development
About the Organization
Women In Film advocates for and advances the careers of women working in the screen industries–to achieve parity and transform culture. Founded in 1973, WIF supports all women working in film, television and digital media, from emerging to advanced career, focusing on advocacy and education, and working to preserve the legacies of all women working in the entertainment community.
Five years ago WIF, with our partners at the Sundance Institute, began conducting research to better understand the gender gap in Hollywood. The research succinctly identified the barriers and most consistent “fall-out” points for female filmmakers–from the earliest development of projects at Sundance Institute Labs, through the festival experience and into the marketplace. Over the past year, the conversation about women in film and television has reached an all-time high. We are at an unprecedented tipping point, and our challenge is to move from talk into action by implementing solutions that will have a tangible impact and increase the number of women in front of and behind the camera.
