We are excited to announce our sponsorship of Sister Motion’s media production workshop at this year’s Festival of The Girl on 5 – 6 October 2024 at the Business Design Centre, in London.
Returning for its 6th year, Festival of The Girl (FoTG) is a non-profit festival dedicated to encouraging girls aged 7 – 11, to explore their potential without being limited by gender stereotypes. FoTG offers a wide range of activities, all designed to inspire and empower young girls by showing them the world is full of possibilities.
Sister Motion is on a mission to increase the number of women behind the camera, working to close the gender gap in the production industry. Their media production workshop is a unique opportunity for girls to gain hands-on experience in camera operating, sound recording and reporting.
Participants will be guided by female creative talent from Sister Motion, who will not only share their technical skills but help build confidence and encourage the girls to envision themselves as future media producers.
“We're very excited to partner with Sister Motion to support their media production workshop at the Festival of the Girl, to help educate young girls and to break gender stereotypes.
This aligns beautifully with CGI’s commitment to advancing women in STEM, and to providing our media industry clients with innovative digital solutions for over 20 years. "
Marian Cafferty, Vice President, CGI UK
“Sister Montion’s studio workshop made such an impact at last year’s festival, and thanks to the support of CGI, we are thrilled they will be back this October! We know the experience will have a lifelong impact on the girls who take part. This is why we created our Festival, and we are so grateful to CGI for making a difference to these girls’ future.”
Abi Wright, Founder Festival of The Girl
“We are thrilled to have the support of CGI to deliver our studio workshop. Thanks to their generosity we can give up to 200 girls and introduction to production. Male crew members outnumber women by over 2 to 1, and initiatives like this are needed to build belief and self confidence that allows girls to imagine their future.”
