CAMERAderie is an initiative by Women in Media created to train women for industry jobs and help them get through the door. Tema L. Staig founded Women in Media in 2010 because, during many years of networking with women, she saw the need for the initiative to push women ahead in an industry that seemed to have little knowledge of their abilities – let alone their existence.
“A really important part of the program this year was massive support from MBS group,” says Staig. “Their support allowed our members above and below the line to not only shoot at Television City and use their gear, but they also were a big part of our 360-training approach with Illumination Training.”
