This single-image created with freely available code shows at a glance the distribution of women across the top jobs in the making of the highest 100 grossing films for 2017, ranked left to right. Each column represents a movie. Each row a job title. The uniform color in the rows reflects the small pool of talent in some jobs. It also shows that some jobs behind the camera are associated with one gender or the other. Each job is shown as a percentage because some are shared by more than one person. The increments from a pale red to dark red show that 1-25% of the job is credited to women, then 26-50%, 51-75% and 76-100%. Blue means there were no women. White means either none (0), or data missing ( ).
