The percentage of women working as directors, writers, producers, executive producers, editors and cinematographers on the top 100 and 250 grossing films increased in 2019 and reached recent historic highs
A new"Celluloid Ceiling" report from San Diego State University finds that women accounted for 21 percent of all directors, writers, producers, executive producers, editors and cinematographers working on the top 250 films, which is a slight improvement over the 20 percent number of 2018., though the number of women working in such occupations on the top 500 films remained stable.
The findings were recorded in the 22nd annual "Celluloid Ceiling" report. The study was released Thursday by Dr. Martha Lauzen, who serves as the executive director of the Center for the Study of Women in Television and Film at San Diego State University. In 2019, women made up 20 percent of all directors, writers, producers, executive producers, editors and cinematographers working on the top 100 grossing films. Last year's number is up from the 16 percent in 2018. Women accounted for 21 percent of individuals in the key roles on the top 250 films, which is a slight improvement over the 20 percent in 2018. Additionally, 23 percent or women held key behind-the-scenes roles on the top 500 films.
While the numbers moved in a positive direction in 2019, men continue to outnumber women 4-to-1 in key behind-the-scenes roles. Female directors helmed 12 percent of the top 100 grossing films in 2019, which is drastically up from 4 percent in 2018 and 8 percent in 2017. Women directed 13 percent of the top 250 films, which is up from 8 percent in 2018.
