Hamilton Loft - 2022 Cinematography Workshop

In 2022, Nyssa taught the inaugural cinematography workshop for The Hamilton LOFT Community.

The Hamilton LOFT (Ladies of Film & TV) seeks to help break these barriers and bring together people who identify as womxn working in all areas of filmmaking.

Our main objectives are to:

• Create content that is predominantly female-driven, focusing on issues that affect womxn and minorities

• Grow a diverse team of underrepresented artists/groups including BIPOC and LGBTQ2SIA+

• Build skills and confidence of womxn through working in cross-disciplinary, supportive teams

• Demonstrate that a local, all-female identified production team is achievable

• Address challenges that women and minorities in the industry face

• Showcase the achievements of women in Hamilton’s film industry

• Team up with local film organizations/community partners to mutually support our vision by collaborating on events/projects and providing accessible opportunities for womxn to share space, knowledge, and tools.

• Identify mentors in the film community who consult on projects and teach affordable workshops
