We strive to create inclusive and nurturing spaces where these continuously overlooked professionals can come together to learn and inspire, challenging stereotypes and paving the way for their continued success in the dynamic world of filmmaking. Bairn's support of our initiative means the world to us, as it shares similar values with our own at Colour Co. Rentals, emphasizing collaboration, abundance, and inclusivity within the film community. Their provision of top-tier camera equipment, including the Sony FX6, FX9, Venice, and Steadicam, was instrumental in elevating our camera workshops to new heights.
