ABOUT ECRU
- We are a grassroots initiative supporting emerging creatives, founded by self-taught and self-employed photographers and directors.
- We recognize the financial, institutional, and cultural barriers of breaking into creative industries because we’ve experienced it firsthand.
- We know that formal training is not the only indicator of experience and talent.
- We understand that representation in casting talent but not in decision-making roles and crew is merely tokenism.
- We have had enough of “listening and learning” and want to see actionable change.
- We believe in connection and community over competition.
