In this episode we talk to Australian cinematographer Katie Milwright. Katie has worked on projects such as TV series’ Tidelands and Please Like Me, films including Looking For Grace and Celeste, and also has an extensive advertising resume, filming commercials for the likes of Myer, Nestle and Smiths Chips, to name a few.
If that’s not enough, Katie is also the tenth Australian female cinematographer to be accredited by the ACS working across film, television, art and documentary, and has won nine ACS awards for her work.
We talk to her about being the only camera assistant on set, the conflict between starting a family and forging your career, and why gender equality and diversity is essential in the screen industry.

In this podcast, we explore the issue of gender diversity in the Australian screen industry, particularly focusing on the representation of women in behind the camera roles. So that’s directors, producers, writers and cinematographers, to name a few.

Throughout this series, we will be talking to female and male creatives and academics about their experiences with gender diversity.

Why is gender diversity essential to the future of the screen industry and of storytelling? What can be done to further champion equality?
