Disabled people in the film industry

1 year ago - Anthony Taylor

Hi fellow shooters! As a disabled writer in the industry, I have been encouraged by the success of the Paris Paralympics, but would like to know how many disabled members there are in Shooting People and if they would like to discuss with me and my friends ways in which to get our voices heard!
All the best!

Hi Tony,

There's a Deaf and Disabled Facebook group which is pretty good.

Into the Script is another friendly FB group for Scriptwriters

Hi Brendan,
It's great to hear from you ! Your reply and info is much appreciated ! I've just sent you a Linkedin invitation so it would be good to keep in touch via that too.
Thanks a million again, and have a nice day!
Tony
P.S. Do you originally come from Ireland ? I've written a screenplay based loosely on my family's links with the Troubles in Northern Ireland and international geopolitics.

Hi Tony
I'm visually impaired for 6 years (ironic industry to be working in). 'Hasn't stopped me from making films, just that I need some compromises, like - driving and I can't self-shoot documentaries like I used to (UIc an but nobody trusts me and I am slower). Hasn;t affected my film-making at all. In fact, heightened my other senses and I've won multiple awards for films I have made with largely, one eye.

Hi Ian,
Wonderful to hear from you! It sounds like we suffer from the same handicap! It also appears that we have similar projects, so it would be great if we could touch base via email - my address is tony.taylor@orange.fr - as I'm based in France.
If you drop me a line, I'll explain what I'm working on at the moment, which I feel could be of some interest to you.
All the very best!
Tony
