Schreiber says the diversity of her camera
crew " has always been important for me. I've
always made it my business to hire a diverse
crew, and I've used camera assistants who are
diverse, going back decades. " On her recent
show P-Valley, " the camera crew was more than
60 percent women, and we focused on hiring
people of color.
" When I came onto commercial sets back in
the day, I know a lot of eyebrows were raised,
especially when I arrived with assistants or
electrics who were women. I knew there were
great obstacles, but if I did not hire, who would?
It was less common for women outside of documentaries to shoot other genres, unless it was
a tiny independent film. One time, I was hired
on a movie, and while my agent was making
the deal, the financiers called to say they were
going to renege because they'd already hired
a woman production designer, and they were
afraid to have too many women. That was a
while ago, but nonetheless it was shocking.
" Of course, now that has changed. It's very
common for directors to have women cinematographers, but there was a time when they really had to fight for us. I've been fortunate to be
on projects where all key positions have been
female or people of color. "
Yet women cinematographers are still more
often hired on smaller independent projects,
Schreiber says. " If a woman can shoot a movie
in 20 days with a $5 million budget, what
couldn't she do with a huge crew and much
more time? It doesn't make sense, but when
the financial stakes are high, women still have
a much harder time getting hired. Fortunately,
the success of studio films whose cinematographers were women - like Rachel Morrison,
ASC; Maryse Alberti; Tami Reiker, ASC; and
Mandy Walker, ASC, ACS - helps greatly! "
Schreiber feels that many more opportunities in television, both above and below the
line, have opened up for women. " On P-Valley,
we had a woman of color as showrunner, and
all the directors were women. It was very inclusive, and that went down the line. When I
was on ABC/Shondaland's Station 19 last year,
diversity in gender and race was evident in the
makeup of our producers, directors and crew.
There is much more consciousness now. "
The #MeToo and 50/50 by 2020 movements
have brought attention to the disparity, the cinematographer adds.
Schreiber cites one particular organization,
