1/4 Two years ago WADW wrote an open letter to BAFTA highlighting the inequality of their awards. The TV industry said they’d listened. This year the situation is worse. Women directors are woefully under-represented in the leading factual categories.

We've got 8 on 8! This March 8, on International Women's Day, we're spotlighting eight stories about women produced by female storytellers. We need more media that captures women's realities. And we need more women documenting these experiences in a way no one else can

Tonight - our film ‘The Instagram Effect’ goes out at 9pm on @bbcthree. It explores Instagram’s impact and influence on society through powerful testimony from insiders and users. Produced by @CristinaCriddle AP’ed by @ImKashJones and beautifully edited by @nathanjrcarr 📺

[Adam Samuel 🇹🇹🇦🇬🇬🇩 @AdamSamue1]

The fact #TheInstagramEffect has no presenter, is perfect. Led by facts, not some famous person's opinion/sympathy. Netflix style, excellent documentary 👏🏾 #BBCThree

[BBC Three @bbcthree]

Lauren's description of her ED is exactly how I felt during mine 6 years ago. I harmed myself to partly try and look & act a certain way that Instagram exacerbated. This is why I haven't put photos/videos of myself up on my blog account yet. #TheInstagramEffect

[BBC News Press Team @BBCNewsPR]

What is the real impact of Instagram on society?

#TheInstagramEffect hears from the very people it's affected, as well as former Instagram and Facebook employees.

Tonight at 9pm on @bbcthree 🤳

The Instagram Effect: 'I was scrolling for 13 hours a day' #theinstagrameffect https://t.co/j7BW4QkHft

[Cristina Criddle @CristinaCriddle]

Just one of the issues we look at in The Instagram Effect is filters and this false sense of beauty on the platform. But filters were originally designed to mask how bad phone cameras were at the time in 2010, around when the iPhone 4 came out. (🎙 speaking to @bbc5live this am)

[Cristina Criddle @CristinaCriddle]

I have been bursting to say this for the past 9 months and now I finally can! I have my first documentary out on BBC 3 on Monday at 9pm called The Instagram Effect 📸🤳🎞

Fantastic opportunity in Leeds with the brilliant @CandourTV for aspiring TV researchers from backgrounds that are underrepresented in the industry

[Sally Ogden @SallyOgdenTV]

This is a paid placement we are especially looking to help someone in to the industry from a background where it’s much harder to get your foot fully in the door like my own story.This opportunity will hopefully give someone the chance to karate kick that invisible door down 🤺
