Since its inception, Mind The Gap has embraced the intersectionality of its filmmakers and conversations within the fight for gender equity. The importance of intersectional perspectives and gender’s indissociable connections to other identity traits has become a cornerstone of the platform’s focus. “We see this as a moment when we can step up”, Elton says.”Mind the Gap shines the light on issues that 2020 has laid bare—systemic racism, inequity, and the deep need to reframe narratives in film and life. The opportunity to address and explore those issues has inspired a series of online events with amazing filmmakers and thought leaders that will be streamed worldwide throughout this year’s festival.

  • FACT SHEET ADDRESS: Palazzo Margherita Corso Umberto
    FACT SHEET ADDRESS: Palazzo Margherita Corso Umberto 64 75012 Bernalda (MT) Italy WEBSITE: www.palazzomargherita.com PHONE: Phone: +39 0835 549060 Fax: +39 0835 548947 RESERVATIONS: Please email [email protected] LOCATION: Palazzo Margherita is situated in Bernalda, a small hilltop town in the Basilicata region of Southern Italy. Located in the province of Matera, which is famous for its ancient cave dwellings, dramatic landscapes and historic houses, Bernalda is relatively unknown outside of Italy. It is just ten minutes from the coast, where miles of white sand beaches border the Ionian Sea, as this part of the Mediterranean is known. While the neighboring region of Puglia has become popular with tourists, Bernalda remains largely undiscovered—one of a few remaining parts of Italy where the culture, food and wine remain authentic and untouched by the world beyond. The townspeople offer a genuine hospitality that makes every visitor feel more like a friend or neighbor than a tourist. It is said that anyone who visits Bernalda cannot resist returning. HISTORY: Palazzo Margherita, a true 19th century palazzo, was built in 1892 in Bernalda by the Margherita family. The town was the birthplace and home to Agostino Coppola, Francis Ford Coppola’s grandfather, who always affectionately referred to it as “Bernalda bella.” The small town holds a special place in the family history, which is what drew Francis to first visit it in the 1960’s. He acquired the Palazzo in 2005. The surrounding countryside, which was settled by the Greeks before the Roman Empire, is part of the Hellenic Magna Graecia—the coastal areas of Southern Italy—where the thriving local agriculture produces sumptuous fruits and vegetables, as well as the Aglianico grapes used to make wines of the same name.

    Fear and loathing in Hollywood at streamers' stranglehold 7 September 2020, by Fiachra Gibbons have. It's a global issue," said the actress, who admitted spending lockdown watching animated movies by the Japanese master Hayao Miyazaki with her family. Legendary Spanish director Pedro Almodovar, who has argued for the regulation of all-powerful tech firms, painted a grim future where towns and cities could lose their cultural hearts, with cinemas and theatres going dark. "The platforms have had an essential role in this period, but it's nevertheless also negative and reason for concern," he told reporters. With many cinemas still closed and studios wary of 'Tired of streaming' releasing movies with social distancing in force, streaming giants have virtually had the film-going public He pleaded for a return to shared experience, to themselves saying cinemas and theatres were the antidote to the "forced reclusion and imprisonment". "The Greeks talk of catharsis, so you find yourself Hollywood stars and top directors are getting crying or rejoicing with other people you don't know, increasingly anxious about the hold streaming and it's essential in our lives as humans," giants Netflix and Amazon are exerting over Almodovar said. cinema. Several expressed unease at the dominance streamers established during the pandemic at the Venice film festival—the first major industry gathering since the coronavirus struck. With many cinemas still closed and studios wary of releasing movies with social distancing in force, the two big US giants have virtually had the film-going public to themselves. Oscar-winner Cate Blanchett, who is chairing the jury at Venice, said cinema needed support and warned it could be tricky "moving from a monoculture of streaming over the last six months to how we open cinemas.

  • 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.

  • PALO ALTO Creative Team Collaborates with Fotokem on DI
    PALO ALTO Creative Team Collaborates with FotoKem on DI BURBANK, CA (June 10, 2014) – FotoKem recently completed the digital intermediate and post production services for the indie film Palo Alto. Working with director/screenwriter Gia Coppola and cinematographer Autumn Durald, FotoKem colorist Alastor Arnold fine-tuned the natural look created in camera to ensure the filmmakers’ vision for this teen tale is reflected on the big screen. Based on James Franco’s short story collection about rebellious high school kids in suburban California, Palo Alto has been praised for Coppola’s coming-of-age storytelling and for Durald’s evocative photography. The film, which marks Coppola’s feature debut, garnered raves at the Tribeca, Telluride, Toronto and Venice film festivals before its recent release. “Gia and I had worked together on five projects prior to this feature, so we have a similar visual language, taste and sensibilities,” says Durald. “Gia is from a photography background, and we pulled a lot of photographic references for the tone and mood we wanted – photos by Stephen Shore and William Eggleston. It was important to have a more filmic, softer texture to the image that harkened back to movies like The Outsiders and Dazed and Confused – something that looked more aged with softer tones in the blacks as well. And nothing overly saturated and contrasty.” Durald shot the feature with a Panavised RED Epic camera, mounted with Panavision Super Speed lenses and vintage 1970s glass to give a softer feel to the image. The on- set DIT handled basic data management and adjusted stills in REDCINE-X, but no LUTs were applied.
