Welcome

This week we had a bit of a party at Dave Stewart's Hospital to officially launch Technical Change - a new programme from Women in Film & Television (UK) backed by ESF Equal and supported by UIP and Channel 4. The programme wants to help women get on in the technical grades of film and TV - specifically camera/lighting, sound, special physical effects, interactive media and post-production. I got a bit drunk, gave a speech, and mentioned we were going to have a blog to allow the film/tv/media community (and others) discuss the issues. Then I realised, oh bugger, I'm going to actually have to do this. So here it is.
