Cinematography Workshop w/ Nancy Schreiber

Columbia Women in Film (C-WIF) and the Cinematography Club are pleased to announce a workshop with Director of Photography, Nancy Schreiber,
Saturday, April 25th from 11AM - 2PM.

Join us for a screening of Schreiber’s reel followed by a workshop on shooting in all formats and working with a DP. Students are also encouraged to bring clips form their own films and/or questions about their upcoming projects to discuss with Schreiber. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn more about working with a DP and get feedback on your projects with a focus on camera and lighting techniques.

Nancy Schreiber was the first woman gaffer in New York’s NABET guild and later  joined the Camera Guild as a director of photography, shooting more than 50 productions in the last 15 years alone. Her work includes, Neil LaBute’s Your Friends and Neighbors; Shadow Magic, a period film directed in China by Ann Hui; the feature November, which was shot on DVX and earned the Cinemtography Award at Sundance in 2004; and more recently, Motherhood, which premiered at this year’s Sundance Film Festival and was directed by Columbia University professor, Katherine Dieckmann.

Please RSVP to cwiforg@gmail.com and indicate if you have work you would like to show for critique and how long your clip is.

Speaker Series with recent CU alumni Madeleine Olnek

Hi, all

C-WIF is excited to invite you to a talk with recent alum Madeleine
Olnek.  Olnek is a writer/director (www.madeleineolnek.com) whose
first short comedy "Hold Up," was an official selection of Sundance
and the Los Angeles Film Festival in 2006. She is also a prolific
playwright whose works have been described by playwright Paula Vogel
as "incredible contemporary masterpieces" in American Theater
Magazine. Olnek is also one of the authors of "A Practical Handbook
for the Actor" (foreword by David Mamet).

Olnek’s thesis film, "Countertransference," for which she was awarded
the Adrienne Shelley Award for Best Female Director at the Columbia
Film Festival, was an official selection of Sundance 2009  and won the
Grand Jury award for Outstanding Dramatic Short at Outfest 2008.

Please join us next Friday, April 10th 1:30 PM in room 512, where
Madeleine will screen her work and discuss techniques for working with
actors, shooting on extremely low budgets, and navigating the festival
circuit.

It will be a great opportunity to learn how an emerging, independent
filmmaker and recent  CU alum is forging her own path
Hope to see you all there!

All the best,
Livi & Bora
