10K could be leveraged toward making oil executives live in constant fear.

I’m just speaking my mind. The headline is clearly alluding to an inadequacy in the amount of women hired to direct major motion pictures and TV.

Otherwise, why would it even be mentioned?

Watching Wicked, I thought to myself “this looks like shit! Why is this the case?” Then, I looked up who shot it and looked at her other projects and saw that she was obviously chosen based on her gender. Nothing more. She was also inducted into the ASC after only 10 years of shooting low budget projects. Clearly, she isn’t being promoted based on her skill or experience level. It is ALL artificial. I’m tired of it. By all means, have Ellen Kuras shoot it or some other incredibly talented female DoP, but having Alice Brooks shoot it STINKS of gender nepotism.

Whether you want to shoot the messenger or not, I’m speaking my mind.

As others have mentioned, this movie looked like

dogshit.

This is what happens when you give an inexperienced, low-budget DoP a 100 million project because of little more than gender.

Thanks for your mature, nuanced reply. I’m dug in where I am but it’s a start, I guess.

 

I am so glad there's a community to discuss machine heads!

I am partial to Gotoh 18:1 machine heads and a close second is Schaller. I like the Japanese manufacturing.
