Great story about client, @sheri_sussman and her new film, #ShutterTheDoors. READ MORE HERE from @guidetofilmtvpost by @dawnhiggi!
.
Taking Oscar Sun. to talk w/ writer, director, producer @sheri_sussman for @guidetofilmtvpost blog’s Pro Tip Of The Week. She shares her experience on directing a film during a pandemic & how covid protocols changed their production & post.

Her current project as writer/director @shutterthedoors is a short film starring @ian.buchanan (Twin Peaks) & @billywirth (The Lost Boys) & DP’d by @justinjanowitz . They shot the project in one day @themintla

They were cautious on limiting crew & days. CDC & SAG covid compliant (producer @adamtrex was certified covid officer as req by SAG), everyone tested, wore masks & PPE, social distanced, kept catering & crafty separated. There were temp checks at check-in, ppe for all & meals (from @canters_deli ) were bagged individually.

They kept the environment comfortable, relaxed & safe.

Sheri’s editor, Scott Harvey, & she worked remotely. He’d share his screen, bounce QT files back & forth & zoom. Sheri’s sound designer, Andy Kantos, also did sound remotely, then mixed at covid safe @unbridledsound . Sheri is working w/ colorist @mark.todd.osborne for her color timing. Usually she’d be in the room w/ her team, but due to constraints this was the safest way to work. The reason why she feels this was successful was that these are “long time colleagues who’ve done my other films for me for over 10 years, so we work very well together & it’s not a problem at all.”.

She will have her DCP created @lightironpost for her DCP (its covid protocols listed extensively on website). The film’s publicist is @m4pr @m4pr_mel .

W/ some solid planning & putting together a trusted team, Sheri’s project ran smoothly & new protocols did not appear to affect her budget or deadlines.

Joss Whedon Sets Full Cast for HBO's 'The Nevers'

Congrats to Jane Espenson! — #JossWhedon created the series — his first since Agents of SHIELD (which he co-created but hasn't been hands-on with for most of its run) — and will serve as showrunner. He executive produces with long-time collaborators #JaneEspenson and #DougPetrie, who are also writing, and #BernieCaulfield.

The series is a sci-fi drama about a group of Victorian women who, per HBO's logline, "find themselves with unusual abilities, relentless enemies, and a mission that might change the world."

LINK: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/joss-whedons-nevers-adds-dollhouse-grantchester-stars-1227938

Former 'Dollhouse' star Olivia Williams, James Norton, Tom Riley and Ann Skelly are among 13 people cast in the HBO series alongside star Laura Donnelly.

Congrats to #JoshHasty, the cast, and crew of #CandyCorn!! #Distribution Deal with #EpicPicturesGroup for a Fall 2019 release! #RT @josh_hasty
- - - - - -
I’ve constantly been asked the last couple of months, “who do you hope distributes your film?” I’ve always replied, “whoever cares about it as much as I do”. Well, we talked to a lot of distributors, but in the end there was no contest. @patrickewaldla, @iconsrobg, and the entire team at Epic Pictures and DREAD are the only people who could do this film justice. They’re releasing it as an unrated director’s cut right out of the gates this fall in the U.S., and taking it to Cannes next week for international sales! A couple of the many reasons I’m thrilled about this deal.
•••
Read the entire press release via the link in my bio for more details on the acquisition. And get ready for a fall season filled with CANDY CORN that you won’t be able to escape!!!
•••
Congrats to everyone who played a role in bringing this film to life. It was anything but easy, and it never would’ve happened without the army of people that helped in every capacity across the board. I appreciate you all.

Congrats to Marc Evan Jackson and everyone who works on #TheGoodPlaceThePodcast!
— Vulture names The Good Place: The Podcast the Best Behind-the-Scenes Podcast of 2018! —

#TheGoodPlacePodcast: Only in reference to this podcast is this true: “Everything is Great!” In a race leading up to season three premiere, Marc Evan Jackson (Shawn) and his guests covered, in depth, all 26 episodes of seasons one and two of The Good Place like true motherforkers. They’ve been digging into season three each week since then. Every moment of every episode is dissected and enlightened by every resident of The Good Place, from actors, writers, producers, costume designers, casting directors, and honestly I’m waiting for the boom op and D’Arcy Carden’s stand-in. This isn’t just for the “show universe” nerd in you, this is a crash-course in TV production. It spends as much time with the special-effects director as it does with The Ted Danson and The Kristen Bell. The “weirdest half-hour of American television,” as Jackson’s affectionately nicknamed it, itself attracts a cult-like following, and for fans with questions, theories, and an obsession with Neighborhood 12358W, this podcast is your fix in between episodes. Shirt, I can’t even go into all the juicy anecdotes you get because I might SPOIL something for some d**k who isn’t caught up! Do yourself a favor: Don’t listen without having watched the corresponding episode. What are you, an Arizona dirtbag? —by Anna Marr
