Here's why Rachel Morrison pivoted to directing after her cinematography Oscar nomination:

Collider Forces is all about highlighting artists who are changing film and television for the better. Do you know who’s having that kind of impact on the industry? Someone who’s made such a significant impression that we can already see the ripple effect she started? Director and cinematographer, Rachel Morrison, the first woman to ever score a cinematography Academy Award nomination.

“Room Raiders was right after the first kind of faux internet boom/fail, right? I got out of school, undergrad at the time, and had a minute where I was actually shooting really cool documentaries and traveling around the world in Argentina and Russia, and doing things that were much closer to my heart. And then that first internet fail happens and suddenly we were all unemployed, and the thing that got people getting paid again, at least in my world, was reality TV.

From there, Morrison would continue to get hired, not just by Coogler, but also by other hugely talented directors including Rick Famuyiwa for Dope and Dee Rees for Mudbound, the film that ultimately scored Morrison an Oscar nomination for her work, making her the very first woman to ever be nominated in the cinematography category.

“It's not quite like the floodgates open. I think, in the same way that people still like to pigeonhole you for the thing that you do, I made this very small movie that got nominated for an Oscar, so it's not — well, I think part of it too is they're really not making that many $100 million dollar dramas anymore. But it wasn't like the floodgates opened to all of my dream $100 million dollar dramas. The $100 million dramas are like, Nolan has his DP, Scorsese has his DP.
