🎬 Attention Australian screen industry! Through

🎬 Attention Australian screen industry! Through our new campaign #NakedWithoutUs, the APDG is seeking support for COSTUME DESIGNER EQUITY in the screen sector. Before an actor begins to speak, it is the costume that defines their character. Long after the film ends, the costume design leaves a lasting impression. Costume design is how the audience remembers characters and how film and television become cemented in memory.'Naked Without Us' is a world-wide campaign championed by the American Costume Designers Guild and local 892 Union. The campaign aims to raise awareness of what costume designers do, how they contribute to process of storytelling, and the inequality in their remuneration in comparison to their collaborators, specifically production designers and make-up designers."The people who create the people should be paid the same as the people who create the place. Movies are about people. We are observers of the human condition. We design from the inside out. We should be taken as seriously as other artists in the industry." Deborah Landis - President Emeritus of the Costume Designers Guild USA, Costume Designer and founding director of The UCLA Copley Center for DesignFind out more about #NakedWithoutUs here: https://apdg.org.au/costumedesignersGet behind our Australian Costume Designers by resharing any @apdguild and @cdglocal982 posts.

Imagine Strictly Ballroom, The Dressmaker, or Pris

Imagine Strictly Ballroom, The Dressmaker, or Priscilla Queen of the Desert without the costumes – Australian costume designers are seeking recognition and pay parity for their creative contribution to the screen industry.Historically, costume has been seen as a female profession and with that has come the gendered pay gap. The costume designer position requires a multitude of skills, particularly the ability to transform the text of the script to a tangible, tactile and convincing representation of the character and the character’s history.Supported by the Australian Production Design Guild (APDG), costume designers have recently met with screen industry bodies to improve conditions for themselves and the entire costume department. Australian costume designers are calling on industry and audiences to stand with them in solidarity, by learning more about costume design and the costume department, and spreading the word.Find out more about #NakedWithoutUs at The Costume Designers Information pack: https://apdg.org.au/costumedesignersGet behind our Costume Designers by resharing any Australian Production Design Guild and @cdglocal892 posts.
