This project presents an overview of the entertainment industry's acceptance of women historically within its job market and a changing climate due, in part, to emerging digital technology. Findings suggest the female-disadvantage in procuring a behind-the camera job in the entertainment industry is on the decline. Also, the disparity between the number of women versus men working in this industry appears to be narrowing. New technology seems to be speeding up these processes, due largely in part to its relatively low cost and accessibility. An apparent shift in societal views of gender roles couples with this new technology to help level the career field between men and women in this new media age. This project also serves as a reference guide for individuals seeking to enter a career in the entertainment industry. / Department of Telecommunications
