LESSONS LEARNED IN MANAGING RISKS AND COSTS IN YOUR PRODUCTION sponsored by HUB Entertainment Insurance Insurance may be one of the last arrangements you make in your production, but it is for certain one of the most important. Done properly, it can mean all the difference in executing a safe, smart, and profitable production. In this panel, we bring perspectives from production executives and risk management & insurance professionals to explore real-life production disasters – ranging from weather delays to death of cast family members to #MeToo related turnover and reputation damages – and how you can learn from these incidents and prevent them (or at least contain their consequences).

  • This Is Comedy.Pdf
    le inématographe nantes THIS IS COMEDY THIS IS COMEDY la nouvelle comédie américaine en 7 films du 10 au 22 janvier 2018 au Cinématographe Tout commence par une émission à sketchs de la télévision américaine : Le Saturday Night Live (SNL pour les intimes), institution télévisuelle toujours en activité dont nous avons du mal en France à percevoir la popularité. Elle a révélé de nombreux talents depuis 1975 : Bill Murray, John Belushi, Eddy Murphy, Ben Stiller, Will Ferrell, Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Kristen Wiig… Puis nous arrivent deux frères, Peter et Bobby Farrelly, accompagnés d’un acteur, Jim Carrey. Ensem- ble, ils réalisent Dumb and Dumber en 1994, véritable pierre angulaire de ce renouveau comi- que. Avec un humour trash, transgressif mais également attachant, ils nous font rire des losers, des geeks, des freaks et mettent en lumière tous ceux que l’Amérique ne souhaite pas voir. Cette détonation change le visage de la comédie américaine, de Ben Stiller au tandem totale- ment loufoque et absurde d’Adam McKay/Will Ferrell, et jusqu’à la veine plus personnelle de Judd Apatow et son équipe. Une nouvelle comédie américaine qui se décline au gré des incon- gruités de ce monde. Cette programmation vous permettra d’en apprécier une partie sur grand écran : soyez prêt·e·s à rire, this is comedy ! Rencontre avec le journaliste et réalisateur Jacky Goldberg à l’issue de la projection de son documentaire This Is Comedy Jacky Goldberg s’entretient avec Apatow à propos des scènes clés de ses émissions de télévision et ses films, ainsi qu’avec les comédien·ne·s et les cinéastes de son gang.

  • Loki Production Brief
    PRODUCTION BRIEF “I am Loki, and I am burdened with glorious purpose.” —Loki arvel Studios’ “Loki,” an original live-action series created exclusively for Disney+, features the mercurial God of Mischief as he steps out of his brother’s shadow. The series, described as a crime-thriller meets epic-adventure, takes place after the events Mof “Avengers: Endgame.” “‘Loki’ is intriguingly different with a bold creative swing,” says Kevin Feige, President, Marvel Studios and Chief Creative Officer, Marvel. “This series breaks new ground for the Marvel Cinematic Universe before it, and lays the groundwork for things to come.” The starting point of the series is the moment in “Avengers: Endgame” when the 2012 Loki takes the Tesseract—from there Loki lands in the hands of the Time Variance Authority (TVA), which is outside of the timeline, concurrent to the current day Marvel Cinematic Universe. In his cross-timeline journey, Loki finds himself a fish out of water as he tries to navigate—and manipulate—his way through the bureaucratic nightmare that is the Time Variance Authority and its by-the-numbers mentality. This is Loki as you have never seen him. Stripped of his self- proclaimed majesty but with his ego still intact, Loki faces consequences he never thought could happen to such a supreme being as himself. In that, there is a lot of humor as he is taken down a few pegs and struggles to find his footing in the unforgiving bureaucracy of the Time Variance Authority. As the series progresses, we see different sides of Loki as he is drawn into helping to solve a serious crime with an agent 1 of the TVA, Mobius, who needs his “unique Loki perspective” to locate the culprits and mend the timeline.
