We're all pretty familiar with the actors and actresses of our favorite shows. But ever wonder who's on the other side of the camera? I do, so I did some research. As I was reading I noticed a curious pattern...Turns out most TV and movie writers and directors are male. But fear not! More and more women are rising into successful writing and directing careers. And they're making some awesome shows and movies. Just take the most recent (2013) Emmy Awards as an example:
5 of the 10 nominees for television directing were women!
Women swept the comedy and directing categories for the first time in the award show's history!
Here are three female directors (with one of their projects featured) who are rocking it in the entertainment industry:
1. Gail Mancuso - "Modern Family"

If media production is something that interests you, DO IT! Your perspective is needed and so valuable in Hollywood and beyond.
