00:07I'm privileged to be in a position to commission, create, and broadcast messages that breed
00:12power and potential among women.
00:15Because unless you are a white man, you've likely been underrepresented and over-criticized.
00:20Most of you here probably know that this is Amy Emmerich, Chief Content Officer of Refinery
00:2629.
00:26But here's what you might not know.
00:28Amy was a shooter producer on two cop shows, Women in the Badge and First 48, and HBO's
00:36Cat House.
00:37Before that, she got her start as an intern on the Rosie O'Donnell Show.
00:41She won an Emmy for MTV's Made.
00:44I think a few Emmys, actually.
00:47Today, the girl who grew up in College Point, Queens, is helping build this.
01:00Anyone who says they want to hire a woman in a position and they can't find one, you're
01:05just not looking hard enough.
01:11Nobody's seen me in this except me.
01:21Amy is giving voice to the next generation of women in media, including me.
01:27And I'm not the only one.
01:28I'm Lucy Fink, and this week is five days of being Amy Emmerich.
01:36I mean, who do you think I work for?
01:38Oh!
01:39Oh, hey!
01:41Come on in.
01:42Keep up the good work team.
01:45Pussy.
01:46So, I am blending out the Amy mask.
01:48It has some mangoes, some cocoa powder, and I'm going to put it on my face.
01:54I love you, Amy.
02:17We love Amy because it's thanks to women like her that we were able to make our film.
02:22Under her leadership, Refinery29 does so very much to get more women behind the camera telling
02:29important but untold stories.
02:32She's the kind of person you give her something to do, she comes back with it done a hundred
02:36times better than you even could have imagined.
02:39She's the kind of boss that you always want.
02:42She's always enthusiastic, always curious, always open-hearted, and it's so great to
02:47see someone at the top like that.
02:48I've never met anyone in such a high position with such a huge heart.
02:54You're making the kind of stuff I would have loved to see as a girl.
02:57You just are a force of nature.
02:59You're so creative.
03:01You give so much to the world.
03:03You're a movement builder.
03:04You're a community builder.
03:05She's always thinking ahead of everything.
03:07She's open to all ideas.
03:09She never says, like, no, I'm sorry, I can't do that.
03:12She's just constantly evolving, constantly innovating, you're inclusive, you're kickass,
03:17you're punk.
03:17I love you.
03:19We need people like Amy to stick up for women, to create content for women, and just to be
03:25like inspirational badasses who don't give a , but give a .
03:29I would say fiery, a leader, powerful, fearless, engaging, unapologetic, innovative,
03:36Amy.
03:37You're great.
03:38I love you.
03:40We've all heard there aren't enough female filmmakers in Hollywood, and when we heard
03:44about it, we thought there was an opportunity to create some change, and that's when we created
03:48Shatterbox.
03:49Let's kick some ass and change the world.
03:51.
03:52.
03:54.
03:54.
03:54.
03:54.
03:54You
