“Building Inclusive Networks in the Film and Television Industry” is a nation-wide
qualitative study examining factors that contribute to the inclusion/exclusion of BIPOC
women from industry networking events.
The study looked to fill a gap in the existing literature and in our knowledge on the
subject of systemic racism in the screen industries. While most studies about diversity
and inclusion in the industry examine the production chain and hiring practices, this
study explored the informal vertical and horizontal networking opportunities, which can
affect the trajectory of one’s career in film and television.
