WHAT SHE SAID: Women Leaders in Post Production and How They Rose Above the Rest In an often male-dominated world of the film and television post production, find out how this post-producer, picture editor, sound editor, music editor and composer made their way to the top. Suzana Peric, Music Editor has been active in post production since 1981 . Growing up in Croatia she attended conservatory and was on track to be a concert pianist — until she suffered a block during a performance, which ended that career. She studied film in Chicago where she gravitated towards picture editing and got a PA job on Arthur Penn’s Four Friends (1981). She then joined the post-production of the film, which brought her to New York. There, she apprenticed in sound and picture until a music editor asked her to be his assistant. Since that discovery, Peric has been music editor for the likes of Mike Nichols, Martin Scorsese, Jonathan Demme, Peter Jackson, Roman Polanski, Robert Benton, Wes Anderson and David Cronenberg, to name but a few, most of these with repeat collaborations. Her most recent work with Demme is Ricki and the Flash . Nancy Allen, Music Editor discovered music editing at NYU, where she attended the graduate program in Music Technology. It was in the Audio for Video class that she met Suzana Peric, the music editor with whom she worked for nearly 10 years, and learned almost everything she knows about the craft. Since then, Nancy has worked on films with Darren Aronofsky ( Black Swan, Noah , the upcoming film MOTHER! ), John Cameron Mitchell ( Short Bus ), Paul Haggis (The Next Three Days), Julie Taymor, Barry Levinson ( Liberty Heights, You Don’t Know Jack ) and David Frankel ( Hope Springs, One Chance, Collateral Beauty ).

Eliza had Co-Supervised or Supervised Dialogue/ADR editing for directors including Todd Haynes ( Wonderstruck, Carol, Mildred Pierce, Velvet Goldmine ), The Coen Brothers ( Hail , Caeser!) and Julie Taymor ( Across the Universe, The Tempest ). Additionally she was a sound editor on numerous well known films including Adventureland, Age of Innocence, Casino, Last Temptation of Christ, Crooklyn, Malcolm X, The Hudsucker Proxy, Pret-A Porter and The Wrestler.

In 1976, an American satirical film written by Paddy Chayefsky and directed by Sidney Lumet , called Network, about a fictional television network , UBS, and its struggle with poor ratings , starring Faye Dunaway , William Holden , Peter Finch , Robert Duvall and Beatrice Straight was nominated for 12 Academy Awards including best film, best director and best editor. Network, won four Academy Awards, including Oscars for Chayefsky’s script, Beatrice Straights’ performance as an outraged wife, Faye Dunaway’s performance as a cynical programming executive and Peter Finch’s frenetic portrayal of Howard Beale, the troubled “mad prophet of the airwaves.” Thirty-five years later, “Network” remains an incendiary if influential film, and its screenplay is still admired as much for its predictive accuracy as for its vehemence and a relentless sense of purpose. Screenwriter Aaron Sorkin, cited Chayefsky when he accepted his Oscar for the screenplay of “The Social Network,” and wrote later that “no predictor of the future — not even Orwell — has ever been as right as Chayefsky was when he wrote ‘Network.’ ” Alan Heim, the picture editor of the film, Mark Laub, one from a team of sound editors, Michael Jacobi and Jeffrey Wolf, the first assistant editor and the apprentice editor on the film at the time, tell their stories of how the film came together and what it was like in various stages working with director Sidney Lumet, writer Paddy Chayefsky and Producer Howard Gottfried.…

NYWIFT & the Post New York Alliance podcast are proud to present: Making the Cut : Editors Talk Collaborations and Career Editing is such a fluid experience. You never know what you will need for the story or what the working relationship with the director is going to be like. Each situation is different. Forging a career as an editor can be just as varied. Before digital technology and software became as accessible as they are today, you came up the ranks from apprentice, assistant, to one day becoming an editor. Now you could take on a low-budget film, working as your own assistant and editor, or perhaps collaborate with an established editor and come on as a co-editor. Always, the major skill is storytelling & building relationships. It’s about living your life and understanding that the material for editorial decisions can come from anywhere, and everything you experience. Join this panel of talented women editors/filmmakers as they share their journey to the edit chair, and explore the collaborations they’ve built along the way. Panelists R. A.

FIX IT IN...PREP? THE VALUE OF POST PRODUCTION ARTISTS EARLY IN THE PROCESS.. sponsored by Nice Shoes, Filmlight, and SONY Most producers have a strong concept of what they want their project to look like, but they don’t always consider editorial, visual effects, music or color grading during the pre-production phase. Bringing post artists into the conversation at the onset of a project leads to enhancing imagery rather than "fixing” in post. In this session, producers will speak directly about the nature of their collaboration with their post team, and share how the early reliance on their skills and experience expanded the possibilities for their projects. Incorporated during prep or on set, your post artists have all kinds of ways to get the most out your of budgets and schedules, as well as that final cut. Speakers Alison Beckett Post Production Supervisor Kill The Messenger, The Hundred-Foot Journey, Bessie Brad Carpenter Co- Producer Vinyl, Boardwalk Empire, Nurse Jackie Chris Ryan Colorist at Nice Shoes Peter Saraf Producer / Chair of the PGA East About Ray , Safety Not Guaranteed , Little Miss Sunshine Dan Schrecker Senior VFX Supervisor, Psyop Film and Television Hail Cesar, Black Swan Tim Squyres Editor Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk, Life of Pi, Unbroken, Lust/Caution, Moderator Jennifer Lane Post Production Supervisor; / Secretary of the Post New York Alliance Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk, Into the Woods, The Bourne Legacy, Revolutionary Road…

What Keeps a CTO Up At Night?

This was a panel presented as part of CCW/ NAB NY. The Post New York Alliance was proud to partner for the first time with NAB on this event. What Keeps a CTO Up At Night? If you're doing post production in New York in 2015 – face it, it's not as easy to figure out as even a few years ago. Your production must deal with new formats – it might be 4K, 6K "future proofing," ProRes versus RAW. The Academy of Motion Pictures & Television wants you to move to ACES – but what's that all about? Did we mention that you must be proficient in cloud computing, distribution to multiple smartphone formats, and now – oh my - Virtual Reality? That's why you'll want to join in conversation with our esteemed group of CTOs and Technologists. These are the experts from top New York post houses who know how the latest technologies might help – or hinder – your bottom line. Our panel will help you understand best practices from camera slate through to the final render, what new workflows can save you time and money, and how to make sense of it all. MODERATOR Ben Baker Digital Workflow, Post Production Supervision, Chair of Education Committee Post New York Alliance PANELISTS Joe Beirne CTO of Technicolor PostWorks in New York Avi Laniado Chief Engineer Harbor Picture Company Chris Parker Chief Technology Officer, President of Post Post Production Division, SIM Group Harry Skopas Director of Technology The Mill…
