Gangly Sister Productions

Gangly Sister Productions Overview

Gangly Sister is producing Purple and Nine, a new web video series to encourage girls to enjoy technology, take risks, and express themselves. Entertainment for smart girls. (That's you, girl.) We want our girls respected for their smarts and strength, but we bombard them with images of women valued for their sweetness or sensuality. If we want media that reflects who we are, who we want to be, and who we want our girls to be, we ladies are just going to have to do it ourselves. As usual. And why not? Introducing Purple and Nine, the fun, smart TV show for girls. No perfect body, wand, or sparkles required. Just two very clever girls who solve their problems through technology.

Rebecca Rachmany, CEO of Gangly Sisters Productions, is working on the Purple and Nine TV series to inspire kids aged 8-12 to pursue STEM-based paths. She aims to break stereotypes and reveal the full potential of younger generations. Rachmany noticed the lack of women in Computer Science programs and decided to target a younger demographic. The TV show aims to challenge the negative portrayal of geeks and show that they can be athletes, fashionistas, and more. Rachmany plans to build an online community with apps and a multiplayer online game for girls based on the characters from the show. She emphasizes the importance of constantly learning and surrounding oneself with supportive peers. Rachmany also provides advice on mentoring and inspiring girls in tech.
