The New Comedy Web Series Uncovers the Unfair Gender and Age Biases in Hollywood
LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / July 29, 2016 / Executive Producer Dezera Page is pleased to announce the release of her new web series, Terms and Conditions. The new series tells the story of a feisty 65-year old woman who is intent on becoming a star.

The series tells the story of Barb, a salty retired divorcee from Brooklyn who finally decides to follow her dreams of making it big in Hollywood—despite the opinions of her kids.
As Page noted, she was inspired to help create and produce Terms of Conditions by her own experiences in the entertainment world. In the almost 20 years that she was on stage and in front of a camera, Page quickly realized there was a lack of roles with any depth for women and more so for women of color.
"So when my comedy partner and co-creator Jymmi Willoughby pitched the idea of writing a web series about following a 65-year-old woman aspiring to make it through all of the sexism and ageism in comedy and in Hollywood, I was intrigued," Page said.
"The product of our passion is exemplified in this production, with our extremely diverse cast and mostly female crew. I think we send a loud and clear message. When you have diverse voices in charge, this is how to solve Hollywood's big diversity problem."
In order to help pay for the high costs associated with producing Terms and Conditions, Page and the rest of her team recently launched a fundraiser on Indiegogo. They hope to raise $5,000 through crowdfunding to help ensure that the new web series will have the quality content audiences need and deserve.
"The $5,000 we raise will pay for post production for season one, public relations and marketing and festivals," Page noted, adding that any additional funds that are raised will go towards the production of season two.
