Skwigly are proud to present the third panel from the second series of Visible In Visuals, an initiative pushing to make the animation and VFX industries more diverse and inclusive through honest, open conversation.
When the BBC are looking to close the “gender fame” gap, why are they neglecting the “gender frame gap”? Behind the scenes, women are still under-represented in senior creative roles across animation and this is even true on Female-focused commercials like the “Names will be Made” campaign for the UEFA Women's Euros.
Tanya J Scott speaks to Directors Hannah Lau-Walker and Neeraja Raj, as well as Producer Amy Ashton about why are we still failing to see female talent leading large commercials in UK animation.
This episode was sparked by the “Women on Screen, Men in Charge” article by Neeraja, which you can read here: https://www.skwigly.co.uk/women-on-screen-men-in-charge-the-industrys-open-secret/
