  • What is the working relationship between a director and script supervisor? And what DO those script supervisor notes mean?

    BMC Filmmaker Advancement Initiative Fellows, Monique Sorgen (Dir., “Sorry, Not Sorry” / Omeleto) and Caryn Ruby (Script Supervisor, “Along Came Wanda” / Amazon Prime) will discuss the director/script supervisor relationship. Find out what they learned from each other during their recent collaboration on the short film, “Random Check,” and share Caryn’s actual script notes from the film. An experienced director, Monique had never worked with a script supervisor on her own projects - a situation Caryn is familiar with - having been the first script supervisor for many experienced and first-time directors. This conversation will be relevant for editors as well as all filmmakers who are curious about script supervisor notes, and how having a script supervisor can benefit your productions.

    Markus Forderer, ASC Bio:  

    Selected as one of Variety's 10 Stars behind the Cameras, the German born cinematographer who graduated from University of Television and Film in Munich, has quickly developed an impressive resume of visually unique and critical acclaimed feature films.  

    HELL marked his feature film debut, earning him a number of awards, including the 2012 German Camera Award for Best Cinematography, the Best Cinematography Award at the 2011 Sitges Film Festival in Spain, and a nomination for Best Cinematography Debut at the world-renowed Camerimage Festival in 2012.  

    Markus has since shot Mike Cahill‘s sci-fi drama, I ORIGINS, which was awarded at the 2014 Sundance Film Festival with the Alfred P. Sloan Feature Film Prize. He then followed with I REMEMBER which premiered at the 2015 Berlin Film Festival and won the 2016 German Camera Award for Best Cinematography. Markus collaborated with director Roland Emmerich on the landmark period drama STONEWALL, which premiered at the 2015 Toronto International Film Festival, and the Sci-Fi blockbuster from 20th Century Fox INDEPENDENCE DAY: RESURGENCE. After shooting the pilot for NBC's RISE, he shot the pilot for the sci-fi horror series NIGHTFLYERS, by GAME OF THRONES writer George R.R. Martin and the sci-fi drama BLISS directed by Mike Cahill. He has recently wrapped RED NOTICE for NETFLIX, directed by Rawson Marshall Thurber.  

    In 2019 Markus became the youngest active member of the American Society of Cinematographers.

Is it even possible to achieve quality virtual environments on a limited budget? What the heck IS Unreal Engine?!
