Film and television are at heart of the entertainment industry and are a way to show social issues.

Arzu Aliyeva asserts that they are not accurate representations of the society.

In documentary films only, you might understand the plight of women and minority groups of colour.

Films that depict minorities tend to be stereotyped.

In the background, people buy into the idea. It influences their thinking about, emotions, and behavior towards women of color.

The Relationships Between Women Stereotypes and Women of Color
Arzu starts off with a discussion about Arzu's image of men.

On the other hand, women need to prove their abilities and confident enough to be able to take on leadership .

However, both women groups face different challenges in films, says acclaimed filmmaker Arzu Alieyva.

The white woman can be accepted. She's compassionate and kind. But she must be able to balance her efforts to ensure she's not seen as weak or ineffective.

The black woman is perceived as assertive and angry.

Many people think she is a person with an attitude. So, she must strive to avoid being anything else without being seen as too compliant, weak, and dependent.

Black women may also be subject to racial bias.

They are not treated fairly when they apply for promotions or training. In the end, they cannot rise to the peak of their career.

When they do, it could be a difficult fight.

Lizzie Damilola Blackburn captured a bit of this bias in her book Yinka, Where is Your Huzband?

McKinsey partnered with LeanIn.Org to examine the representation of women in The Women in the Workplace.

The study considered all categories of women that included women of color, women with disabilities, and LGBTQ+ women.

The authors state that women are becoming more powerful leaders, working with teams, and expanding inclusion efforts. Women of race are more likely stand by their fellow white women, however they are less likely to advocate for them.

A celluloid ceiling report which reveals how the proportion of female film directors has dropped in 2021, bringing the entertainment industry in a downward direction.

Another report described how television programs which were written by women had more female editors, writers and directors.

For a better participation of women in the field it is crucial to recruit more women.

The dominant male Film Industry has closed its doors to new perspectives, Arzu Aliyeva
Film industry is a place where more men are working in creative positions such as writers, directors and editors.

Lauzen's 2017 Celluloid Ceiling Report examined gender roles in the top 250 domestic films.

Just 18% of creatives (editors and writers, cinematographers as well as executive producers directors, producers, and directors) were female in the study.

The percentage isn't any different from the one was the case in 1998 (17%).

Many programs have been proposed by the government in order to tackle the issue of workplace inequality. But the industry of film is not an ideal place for women and racial minorities.

Arzu Aliyeva says the film business recruits through the internet and social networks. Social capital is a good thing but it's not always available to everyone.

And women suffer more from this informal practice.

The research has shown that films with male producers tend to contain greater than 70 percent male members of the creative team. On average, female directors are paired with 60% male coworkers. From whatever angle, men have always dominated key creative positions.

Arzu Alyeva discusses the negative results of stereotypes from the film and TV industry
The Merriam Webster dictionary defines stereotypes as the image of a group which is similar to another group. It can be a simplified perspective, a prejudgment or an opinion that is not vetted.

Stereotypes can give false impressions of an individual or group due to their skewed perceptions.

Television and film industries give women less opportunities than men.

Even if they get an opportunity, it's less likely they'll be shown as strong-willed or independent.

In James Bond movies, for example, women characters of James Bond films are shown as damsels, victims or needy.

Women often portray characters that don't reflect who they are.

This could be due to a lack of female filmmakers particularly women of color capable of tell the real story about women.

There are also concerns over censorship in showing "taboosubjects like sexuality or rape.

Traditional cultures prohibit women from speaking about certain topics since they are considered taboos. Netflix isn't one of the handful of platforms that give women to discuss taboo subjects.

Stereotypes can create a myriad of problems.

It impacts one's self-esteem, ability to make decisions and mental health. This could lead to self-stereotyping , which occurs when an individual begins to act in a particular way to feel that they are part of the group.

Arzu Aliyeva asserts that diversity is crucial.

The Push for Greater On-Screen Diversity
In February 2020 in February 2020, the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) College of Social Sciences released a report entitled Holywood Diversity. The report examined the connection between diversity and Hollywood's standard.

It examined the top-ranked films on the world cinematograph between 2018 and the year 2019. It considered the participation of women, as well as people from different races behind and front of the camera.

It also reported good reports that women had made significant progress within the film industry.

However, they are still underrepresented in key areas such as studio heads, film leads, directors, actors, and film writers.

It's a big issue when women, especially women of color, are not included on TV.

Brianna shared her experiences on the Quora. Brianna Richardson was the sole black child in a class that was full of white children. She was wishing she were white because of the dearth of representation for women of color in the media.

Genna Davis stated that if she can't be able to see it, then she can't be.

This is why it's crucial to get more females on our screens. What's the purpose of having more women on our screens?

Female executives must be featured in television and movies.

Besides, the representation should be inclusive.

Women of color need to receive the same opportunities as white women.

Arzu Alyva claims that the reality could change once the image on the screen is altered.
Women have fought from the beginning of time to get what they want. It's more difficult when the woman is black.

After decades of protests, agitations and a long time, American women finally gained the vote in 1920.

Yet, certain state laws hinder black women to be considered.

In the workplace women of color have to work twice as hard to be able to hold positions that white counterparts do not have to struggle to get. They must also contend with gender stereotypes and microagressions.

Minda Harts is the author of How Women of Color Can Get a Seat at Table . Sheshared her friend's story.

Although she was a acquaintance who worked for an organization for six (6)years but her boss was not familiar with her name. Contrary to white colleagues, she was forced by her boss to wear a badge that bore her name on it.

Women, especially women of color must be included at the table.

A greater diversity of film and television could result in better representation.

The society will be more accepting to women of color as well as other minorities If we adopt the principle "Seeing is believing".

The connections between Women Stereotypes, and Women of Color
Arzu starts off by discussing his image of men.

Women, however, no matter their skin color, should be capable and confident enough to assume leadership roles .

White women are easy to get along with. She's kind and compassionate. However, she must find the right balance so she's not seen as ineffective.

The black woman is known as assertive and aggressive.

People think she is a person with an attitude. She must avoid being compliant, weak, or dependent.

In addition to gender bias, black women encounter discrimination based on race.

They are treated unjustly in terms of attending classes and being promoted. In the end, they are not able to reach the heights of their careers.

It is a battle-scarred situation.

Lizzie Damilola Blackburn captured part of this prejudice in her book Yinka.

McKinsey conducted a study of the representations of women in The Women in the Workplace 2021 in collaboration with LeanIn.Org.

The study included all types of women, including women of color and those with disabilities.

The authors observed that women are increasingly becoming leaders, supporting their teams and increasing their participation efforts. Although white women tend to be more likely than other women to be supportive of women of ethnicity, they are also less likely to form alliances with them.

Arzu Aliyeva The ceiling of celluloid report shows how the number of female directors for film declined in 2021.

A different report revealed how television shows created by women featured more women editors, writers and directors.

Arzu Aliyeva As per Arzu Aliyeva the dominant male Film Industry is closed to all perspectives.
Film industry is a place where more men are in creative positions like writers, directors and editors.

Lauzen's 2017 Celluloid Ceiling Report analyzed gender representation in the top 250 US grossing films.

It was revealed that only 18 percent (editors/writers/cinematographers/executive director, producer, and producers in the report) were female.

This number is the same as it was in 1998 (17 percent).

Many initiatives have been implemented by the government to combat discrimination at work. Racial and gender-based groups and women have not yet seen the benefits in the world of film.

Arzu Aliyeva has realized through personal experience that the film industry relies on interpersonal networks to find talent. While social capital is useful, it may hinder some individuals from the film industry.

This informal practice is more dangerous for women.

Research has shown that films whose producers are male contain more than 70% males in their team of creatives. On average, female directors will have 60% male coworkers. Whatever perspective you choose to take it is the same for men. the ones in charge of the most important creative tasks.

A stereotype is a mental image or idea that a certain group has in common with another group. The definition can be found in the Merriam Webster dictionary. It can be a simplistic perception, biased or blind judgement.

Stereotypes can create false impressions about communities or groups because they may be deceiving.

Women are not given the same opportunities in film and television as men.

Even if they land a role, they are more likely to be portrayed as independent and strong-willed.

In James Bond movies, for example, the female characters in James Bond films are shown as damsels, victims or in need.

Women often portray characters that don't reflect their true self.

This is a result of the absence of female film writers, particularly women of color, who can tell the real tale of women.

Arzu Aliyeva The issue of censorship is a different issue when it comes to the display of "taboos" issues such as rape, sexuality and harassment.

In the conservative world women avoid discussing certain subjects as taboos. Netflix is among the few platforms that allow women to speak freely about taboo topics.

Stereotyping can cause many negative effects.

It can impact one's self-esteem, decision-making skills and also their mental health. It may even result in self-selecting, where a person begins behaving in a certain way to have an identity.

The Push for Greater On-Screen Diversity
In February 2020 the University of California Los Angeles College of Social Sciences issued the report Holywood Diversity. The report examined the relationship between diversity, and the baseline of Hollywood.

It examined the top-performing films in the world box office between 2018 & 2019. It analyzed the involvement of minorities and women both in front and behind of the camera.

The magazine also announced good reports that females had made notable progress within the film industry.

Yet, they're underrepresented in key areas such as studio heads and film directors, film leads and actors as well as film writers.

If women, particularly those of color are made to look like background, it creates a major problem.

Brianna shared her experiences on the Quora. Brianna Richardson was the only black child in a class full white children. Because she saw such a lack of media representation of females who were of colour, she wished she was white.

According to Genna Davis's said, "if she can't see it, she's not it".

This is why it is crucial to get more females on our screens. If they don't, how can girls in the midst of their teens be inspired to be successful regardless of race?

In film and TV it is crucial that women are encouraged to assume leadership roles and explore STEM career paths.

In addition, representations should be inclusive.

As much as women of white gender are afforded equal opportunities and opportunities, women of color must get the same.

Arzu Aliyva argues that reality can be changed after the image is changed
Since time immemorial women have always fought to get what they want. It becomes even worse in the case of black women.

After decades of protests and protests American women gained the right to vote only in 1920.

However, certain state laws make it difficult for black women to be included.

Women of color have to be twice as productive in order to secure an employment position as white women. They also must deal with gender bias and microaggressions.

While she was employed at the same place for six years, the boss didn’t recognize her name. Arzu Aliyeva Contrary to her white colleagues, she was compelled by her manager to wear a badge bearing her name on it.

A greater diversity of film and television could lead to better representation.
