Do you write the short script and then expand? Learn how to take your short form content to the next level from filmmakers who have been there before.

SUMMARY:Going Paperless Members
DESCRIPTION:We hosted an interactive workshop about Going Paperless on set with Film Fatales member Valerie Weiss (Director of Mixtape\, Outer Banks\, and Prodigal Son). \nValerie discussed how Scriptation can empower you to navigate the new world of digital scripts\, shorter work days\, remote collaboration\, and social distancing without compromising your production workflow. Through a demonstration of the app’s tools like Note Transfer\, Script Annotation\, Bookmarking\, and Facing pages\, Valerie showed us how she uses Scriptation successfully on set. Watch the recording to gain insight into her process and see how she works within the new production safety guidelines. \nValerie first started using Scriptation four years ago when she was introduced to it by the cast of Scandal who were fans of the program because of its almost instantaneous notes transfer when new drafts of episodes arrived. Valerie adopted it immediately because of its vast functionality (annotating\, adding photo references\, and more)\, the positive effect on the environment by going paperless\, and the powerful way it increased communication with her department heads. Once the pandemic hit\, Valerie knew that Scriptation would be even more essential because of diminished physical contact in prep and production. Valerie has taught seminars on Scriptation to the Directors Guild of America\, the NBC Female Forward Program\, NYC Women Filmmakers and to the LA-based Saturday Sessions as well as industry-wide events for Scriptation. She will share the signature way she uses the app to direct her films and television episodes with enhanced creativity and productivity. \nParticipants received one complimentary month of Scriptation following the workshop.

SUMMARY:The Donut King Members
DESCRIPTION:Thank you for joining Film Fatales and Greenwich Entertainment for a screening of The Donut King and a panel discussion with Director/Cinematographer/Writer Alice Gu and Writer/Editor Carol Martori moderated by Film Fatales member Stephanie Wang-Breal. \nTed’s story is one of fate\, love\, survival\, hard knocks\, and redemption. It’s the rags to riches story of a refugee escaping Cambodia\, arriving in America in 1975 and building an unlikely multi-million-dollar empire baking America’s favorite pastry\, the donut. Ted sponsored hundreds of visas for incoming refugees and helped them get on their feet teaching them the ways of the donut business. By 1979 he was living the American Dream. But\, in life\, great rise can come with great falls.
