New Year's Resolutions
(1) Put Technical Change programme to bed (LOVE that ESF paperwork!)
(2) Move onwards and upwards to other exciting things
(3) Update blog
Even though our ESF-funded programme has drawn to a close, the debate about gender and technology still interests me. Especially as I watch 16 month old Lila (with her Israeli engineering DNA) obsess over cars and train engines.
Is there a point where this will stop?
Will that be anything to do with us?
How do we help Lila do what she's best at without laying preconceptions and stereotypes on her?
So, this blog is gonna stay open for now. There's still some thinking to be done, and I'll try and do it here when I get the chance.

Any plans to start up another technical change with the WFTV? Sounds like such a great idea!
I'm in the camera department and although there are lots of women working as assistants like myself, there seem to be so few female DoPs...
Will there be any further mentoring schemes in 2008?
Hi Tasha,
WFTV are looking into running further mentoring schemes but there is nothing definite as yet.
Are you a member of WFTV? That's probably the best way to be kept informed. You can download an application form from the website.
Are you going to the Bird's Eye View festival this year? There'll be heaps of women directors and DoPs attending - good place to start networking!
Best of luck,
Jemima
