As a woman of color working in entertainment industry since 2002, meeting Autumn Durald Arkapaw and hearing her creative process and reflections was such a breath of fresh air and it has touched me on a very personal level.
She is nominated for an Oscar tonight for her stunning cinematography in âSinners.â
If Autumn wins tonight, it will be well deserved and she will become the first female cinematographer ever to win the Oscar!đ
âItâs about photography. Itâs about an emotional format that someone wants to know my perspective on. If everybodyâs a white male, then thatâs just one perspective,â Durald said. âI think there are more women now. There are fewer women of color, but hopefully after this awards seasonâafter Iâve gone out there and spoken to many people and young girlsâit helps. Because you want to see yourself reflected out there to know that you can do this job.â
I am rooting for you
