Listen "1st AC Jenise Whitehead, "I'm unapologetic about who I am.""
Episode Synopsis
Jenise Whitehead is a digital utility and film loader. If you don’t know what that is, you’ll find out all about it on this episode. She learned her trade through Panavision’s two year program in 2016 and has worked on several shows since, including “Insecure” on HBO and the Netflix show “Gentefied”.
She’s a talented musician and actually studied Spanish in college. She didn’t think about working in Hollywood until she went to the OutFest of Los Angeles, where she heard about a program called “Outfest Outset.” She applied to the program, got in and co-directed a movie, called “Gideon’s Cross.”
Anya and Fanshen talked to Jenise last summer - in Anya’s apartment, no less - about how to advocate for yourself when you’re relatively new to the game -- and even about how she improved her earning power.
