Birds' Eye View (BEV) is a year round agency that campaigns for gender equality in film Now in its 16th year, BEV spotlights and celebrates films created by women, and supports women working in film through training and events.We see ourselves as inclusive – not just for women, but for everyone. Director at Large, Mia Bays, said: "The up-swell of energy, anger and passion-for-change following the revelations of widespread sexual harassment and misconduct in Hollywood and beyond has strengthened our resolve to tackle gender inequality and the power imbalance in film." We define films by women as directed or written (screenplay, source book or autobiography) by a woman.BEV have supported over 30 films in the last two years with promotions and events, such as Suffragette (2015), Toni Erdmann (2016) and Step (2017). We host these events with leading filmmakers, cultural influencers and social justice campaigners, such as director Gurinder Chadha OBE, publisher Sharmaine Lovegrove and critic Anna Smith. Our format subverts the traditional Q&A panel by asking speakers to pose questions to the audience and encourage discussion.You can read more about our training activity here: https://www.birds-eye-view.co.uk/workshops-and-training/And if you would like to be part of our new Audience Influencer campaign, RECLAIM THE FRAME, take a look here: https://www.birds-eye-view.co.uk/influencers/ Mission StatementAt Birds' Eye View, we aim to:1.
