Machismo en el audiovisual: las actrices a partir de los 40 | Antonio Abeledo | TEDxCadizUniversity


[Music]

the main character we look for actor

with good-natured appearance with a cloudy look

he is the perfect son-in-law but little by little

We discover how selfishness will take

to be capable of anything

the actor to prepare the test must

know that the character had a childhood

hard

we are looking for actors between 30 and 45 years old

for girl protagonist we look for a

actress who represents the ideal mother

of good obedient educated family

Discreet smile the character when you

try to defend your children

Pretty but not sexy actress is between 25

and 30 years to come little makeup and

simple converts we will see it with a

pigtail and with loose hair and this is a

normal case that I can find all

the days that the producers send me

so that I can make proposals of the

clients that you represented as you will see

an example that is pretty enough

graphic because the qualities that you

stand out from her is that she be pretty

be

concretely this character that is real

in the fiction of a 15 year old daughter and

is an actress from between

25 and 30 he had it with 12 in 811 and for him

the fork of much wider age

that is to say he is her husband but he can

having from 30 to 45 and if

crowned he does us

this story is repeated all the time

that’s why I think I ‘m going to continue I ‘m going to read a

momentarily some of others of the

profiles that received that is enough

clear actresses among the 30 these

profiles are both in Spain and in

united states actresses between 30 and 35

years to play the protagonist

a woman in full crisis 40

has missed the opportunity to be

mother and actress with a lot of comedy and with

a lot of experience

it does not matter that she is beautiful is a woman

very sure of herself that comes with

tight dress and neckline extended to 3

pretty even without makeup

the mother 50 years

we look for actresses around 40

I hope they stay well physically

girl with a geek air but has to

to be beautiful actress is between 18 and 22

Please years is that I loved

please do not send proposals of

actresses over 22 although so

physically great to three of appearance

normal but with the potential to do the

pretty has a sequence where it’s used

the protagonist ends up sleeping with

the lectern around the 20 25 years that

come well produced atriz with a little

of overweight

it does not matter if it is attractive or not but

that is very funny athletic and fibrada

It’s not good that she’s thin because of that

We need to see swimwear not

they worried because it’s going to be a team

very small and will only be the director

of casting and the director of the series and

already to finish actress between 30 and 35

important years that does not look more than subway

sixty

the protagonist is short because he is my

reality every day

as you will see in the profile that you and

first in his profile not only the

old hairpin was much older

They did not talk to me about how I had to

be physically but they also entered

of the psychology of the character and what

they justified because he was a child of his

mother is also a very childhood

difficult but there is but for her

really the only thing that matters is there is a

data that no one comes from the side of

the profiles that is thin but

thin have to be all the

protagonist does not occur to anyone

propose an actress that is not thin

this responds to the myth of beauty that

it’s youth thinness fertility and race

aria that we say is the cause because

the reason why the actress is from

the 40 not interested are invisible not

there are these cases and forgiveness

ok these are the invisible chains

they carry are not sad but

also women because the actress does not

is valued only have talent

appreciates that you have talent and you

values that are to be beautiful because

because what character to develop

them in movies and on television since

its purpose is to love seduce and

procreate super

they are always subject to the characters

masculine and and from the 40 already

I tell you

that’s why the presence of women of

actresses in the cinema before 40 is

38 percent when they turn 40

it’s reduced to 29 percent and already

the protagonists is reduced to 24 by

percent is non-existent

this not only affects the actresses in it

in his work he also affects his

day by day for example how many lists of

better dresses you know better dressed

all week the prizes months the

vogue awards prizes at the goya

everything is always the best and the worst

dressed how many photos in the magazine

that a man has his ass fallen and

you have to know and few pictures bay

that an actor has a belly is not that

there is no picture that has richer is that

if they are removed , the term has already been created

of healthy fofi that is justifying it

Chavez is fat but has its thing

Caló but is attractive

they in addition to the who the to be

Thus when exposed flock one

public act only as an actress but as

person

e at the moment they have to be spent as

500 euros in makeup artist

hairdresser everything to make you green

and in noia asked the jacket run

and and they will not ask you, you never know

listen to once alex church

I asked someone who is going

dress would be disrespectful

tremendous not but to her if it

they ask about the projects that are

developing for the work that is

presenting at that moment they have

it is not wrong that this vision is given

of women in the audiovisual but

they have a representation in

how much physical and find much more

diverse that is what we have to

try to get with the case of the

actresses

how many times do we see women leading

in the story, almost never before

the 40 then they are sexual objects objects

that can be possessed and that man

decide

the man is making decisions with

respect to it when they pass the 40 then

they are the mother and the daughter the grandmother are

victims or beneficiary of the

decisions that the characters make

male they do not seem to be

they deserve the cinematic epic

I propose an exercise to see who I

I could say right now

ten leading actors who have

made a movie in the last five

For years, I think of Paco León, I think

in javier gutiérrez I think of eduard

fernandez

I think of Javier Cámara, I think of Luis

omar I think about asia echandía I think

come many names of older actors

of 40 who is the protagonist

now let’s exercise the

Inverse I obviously am here

speaking I have already done it but I invite you

to do it when you leave here

How many starring actresses have you

seen a spanish movie the last

years

4 enma suárez

maribel verdú carmen machi and belén wheel

no more and no not that we

let ‘s say it does not exist because

they do not exist because there are no female directors

because there are no writers in Spain only

There are 17 percent of women

they direct film last year

of all those that were delivered Spanish

only 17% were directed by women

and only 16 percent had a script

with a woman’s signature is obviously

affects as it also affects that

directed productions and starring

for women have a 60 percent

less than budget does not only affect the

product quality but it affects

Product promotion are invisible

even to promote the work

that is presenting this he related

culturally left there are many producers and

many managers that always when

they talk about these topics they always say

good but it is that in the end the cinema in the

what television does is give a reflection

of reality

lie is to say is a reflection

closed because he is walking or is

hiding at 50 percent of the

population and in the case of women from

40 years very much more because these happen

things

in the last report that has come out top

that the association

Spanish women filmmaker talks about

three points that I think are

fundamental

1 women within the industry

audiovisual media do not occupy positions of

responsibility

only 24 percent of the posts

managers are occupied by women

in front of the 76 that we deal with

two of the three most recognitions

important that exist in the in the

world of cinema and television that are

Goya of honor and gold medal

the national prize of cinematography

they have only taken it in a

dumped by 23% compared to them that

have led by 77 percent of the

occasions and finally that the movies

directed by women only have help

this improves explaining it from before

televisions so that a movie will

lift in Spain

The first thing you have to have is a

Spanish general television

telecinco antenna 3 that occur in

that movie is worth it because it has the

obligation by law to allocate 5% of

its benefits to production

cinematic spanish television

has an obligation of 6%

well of all these movies that

they are only benefited by this

for this help 17 percent of

films directed by women

because it is important to balance this

I tell because culture builds

our vision of the world before we said

that in the audiovisual and art in a

reflection of reality I do not know if it’s a

reflection of reality but more

important yet is that you have the ability

to create new collective imaginaries

you have the ability to create new

Realities

if we with the movies and with the

television series that we do and that

we see

we continue to project this type it

You need for obviously this will

change life and what are these

stereotypes needed by women

they are submissive beautiful fragile or sexy

Men do not talk about feelings

they are hard and violent to portray others

profiles needed for example because it ‘s

necessary because it is necessary that

women in art and in the audiovisual

begin to lead the story for what it is

so that when we meet a

woman that leads in some in some

appearance in real life

we do not distrust her

for putting an example in my world if

you ask for javier bardem there is no doubt

nobody has doubt is unanimous that player

excellent and who has is in place

that corresponds to him but if you ask for

Penelope Cruz

many people will say to me as an actress I do not

like very smart and I already knew how to do it is the

example the clear example and now I wanted

talk about this article because I tell you

I recommend

He left the country two weeks ago and

publishes beatriz martínez titular because

Spanish cinema is still installed in the

I hate women gave data like that

last year in 2016

of the five films that opted for

goya to best movie

there was only one starring women

that the board of pedro almodóvar

the rest of the movie she crossed out

of movies and for doubts and to cross it out

of film as a movie type tuda el

industry world retired in the

felt over this girl had to

Take your case to the following week in

the mobile because it was truly

embarrassed and frightened ga and criticism

that made him clear he named many

2016 movie sequences that give

shame of others and the actress herself

even that the stars were

actors who had come out with those

actresses who felt like attacked

when the article does not attack anyone

that is, if an actress in Spain works

obviously he has to do papers of

this guy because it would not work

work and doing theater in the fourth

wall and no one would go to see what is the

solution to this the solution is something that

it gives a lot of fear to most

of the people in the industry that is the

quota system

the quota system is 50 50 in

Sweden has already made the system

fee and it has been passed in 2011 there was only

28 percent of the films that are

they produced that were run by women

when the system is set quota

in 2012 until 2015 that has changed the

percentage to 50 50 and there are many who in

Spain they say good but of course I

what I care about is the quality

I do not care what a woman said or a

man lie

in this quota system has been

proved that the presence of movies

in international festivals increased

in 70 percent is to say so bad

are doing and in the goya awards and that

it is not the same what is called the poster

to the nominated and awarded films has

increased by 60% the movies

directed by women why so

wrong so bad they will not

and finally I propose that you

take you to know this test is called

the Bechtel td and consists of a

any movie that you see from

now three questions

ok the first question is it ‘s very

simple but then you see how not

the first question is that if there are two

female characters with their own entity

say it’s not worth mother secretaries or

grandmother no carmen fernandez juan ruiz two

female protagonist characters

if the answer is approved is yes we pass

to the second question

these two women with their own entity

they talk to each other if the answer is yes

we went to the third

they talk about something other than a man and

now of idi but good what

barbarities that is for the most part

of the films that I see surpass this

tests are not or do not represent 20% of

the movie I encourage you that from

now there’s no reason why he does not mean

This is not a test to assess ie

if you pass the test it will be better or worse

movie has nothing to do with that

but if it serves to take a bit of

consciousness because by becoming aware and

we have 50 percent of the problem

solved

many thanks

[Applause]
