But a combination of economic headwinds and a spac induced hangover have meant the pipeline cut to a slow drip. 2024 is looking more promising, and that means financial executives tasked with preparing for the transition have already begun planning the work do be done.

Today I'm joined by Cinematographer and friend of the show Sam Levy. I had Sam on the show to discuss his work on his latest film SHE CAME TO ME. The film features Anne Hathaway, Peter Dinklage, and Marisa Tomei. The film is centered on a composer who is creatively blocked and unable to finish the score for his big comeback opera. At the behest of his wife, Patricia, formerly his therapist, he sets out in search of inspiration and finds much more than he bargained for. SHE CAME TO ME is currently playing in theaters everywhere and is worth your time. Make sure you check this one out. It was nice to leave a film (in October) feeling better than when I walked in. Sam is one of my favorite guests to have on the show and I'm always looking for an excuse to chat with him for an hour or so. Enjoy the show. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/followingfilms/support

In a beautiful and wide-ranging interview, Sam Levy brilliantly articulates how distorted grief is impacting her world three years after the love of her life Pete died in the blink of an eye. “His life ended and nothing happened,” Sam says. “I can say I'm a widow, but I don't believe what I'm saying, it's just a word. Knowing and understanding that he's gone are two different things.”Sam walks us through the colourful and fun life she shared with Pete, a larger-than-life, funny, grumpy, loveable, cider-loving character who sometimes liked to shock with his potty mouth. Sam also explores the importance of voice recordings, legacy, and how: “It warms my soul to see him in my dreams.”This is a must-listen episode for anyone who is experiencing Covid grief and for anyone who is interested in people and life stories.

“Don't you think maybe they are the same thing? Love and attention?"–Lady Bird, written and directed by Greta Gerwig "I really love that line in the script. It's an incredible script that Greta Gerwig wrote. It's not obvious, that sentiment that she says. I think that's why she has to point it out to the Lady Bird character, but I think if we're lucky in our lives, we can choose the path that we want to go down, whether it's something creative or in the arts or something else. And I think if you're lucky, you can spend your life or your career following something you really love or spending time following the path, whether it's a hobby or your career. And spending that time paying the attention that the craft or the hobby or the creative pursuit wants."Sam Levy studied film in Paris with French New Wave director Eric Rohmer and began his career as an apprentice to legendary cinematographer Harris Savides. Sam first gained recognition as a cinematographer when he photographed Wendy and Lucy for director Kelly Reichardt - voted “One of the Best 25 Films of the 21st Century” by The New York Times. He went on to shoot Frances Ha, Mistress America and While We're Young for director Noah Baumbach, Changers and Frank Ocean's Blonded for Spike Jonze, Sermon on The Mount for Jerrod Carmichael, Maggie's Plan for Rebecca Miller and Green Porno for Isabella Rossellini. Sam also photographed Lady Bird for writer/director Greta Gerwig - nominated for 5 Academy Awards including Best Picture and winner of The Golden Globe for Best Picture.

We've been talking about Lady Bird, and you mentioned Francis Ha. So we made Francis Ha first, and there's an interesting relationship between her and her best friend that is almost like a romance, but it's not actually romantic, but the way the story is told, it's like two lovers, but they get into arguments and there's a lot of conflict. And then Ladybird, there's a lot of conflict between the mother and the daughter. And in some sense, I remember thinking, Well, I've made things before and with Greta where there's conflict and maybe there's some overlap here, but there wasn't. It's just every time you start from scratch, and you might think, Well, if we use a certain camera or if we use certain tools, maybe that will help. But that's really the last step. And then I think, you have to have a more, a sort of less practical approach in the initial discussions.I find it helpful to speak with the director and all the collaborators on the project and just to have what I'd call a more dreamy conversation when you get together in a cafe or in the office and just talk through more emotional aspects of the story. There's these very earthly concerns that making a film requires, and you have to really leave all that stuff for later. All the stuff is important, just like in any creative process or business where there's a finite amount of resources. But how do you show certain relationships? The fact is you just have to talk about them first and figure out what they are. It's really important to understand specifically what the emotional notes are of the story. And then, little by little, we just figure out the technique of like the brush strokes, if it were painting, or the notes, if it were music. In cinematography, it's a visual medium, so eventually, we're moving towards: What is in the frame or what isn't in the frame? And how will these frames transition to each other?”https://samlevydp.comwww.imdb.com/name/nm1240085/ www.instagram.com/samlevydp/ www.creativeprocess.info www.oneplanetpodcast.org Instagram @creativeprocesspodcast

And growing up, my mom worked very long hours, and my father was a musician who did most of the cooking.

Someone who really shaped my worldview. That her relationship with her friends or possibly with her mom, and I think it just feels very familiar and fun.

"I've always thought that filmmaking rhymes with classical music, the process of making classical music that I observed as a child. When I discovered filmmaking, I thought these things, they're very similar. They rhyme with each other. I hope this doesn't sound pretentious, but what operating a camera does resemble the physicality of conducting an orchestra. I was in a certain proximity to my father's orchestra playing on Stephen Spielberg's and Clint Eastwood's soundtracks, and I grew up playing the cello.My favorite conductor that I ever got to see was Seiji Ozawa, who was the musical director of the Boston Symphony and the Tokyo Symphony. But he was my father's orchestra was the Boston Symphony, and he was musical director for 35 years or something like that. And this was like, he was like a dancer, really beautiful, elegant movements. And I watched him rehearse and perform for so many hours when I was a child. And I think subconsciously as a camera operator, that it informed my sensibility, and maybe if I'm able to pull off like an elegant, smooth camera move, like on Noah Baumbach's Mistress America movie we did a lot of big flourishy movements all in one shot. And I think Seiji was a huge influence on me in terms of movement. And even if, Confess, Fletch, I didn't operate the camera, but I had an amazing operator named Julian Delacruz. And just being able to communicate like what the movement should be and just speak that language, I think getting to watch Seiji as a kid really helped that for me.”Sam Levy studied film in Paris with French New Wave director Eric Rohmer and began his career as an apprentice to legendary cinematographer Harris Savides.

“Don't you think maybe they are the same thing? Love and attention?"–Lady Bird, written and directed by Greta Gerwig "I really love that line in the script. It's an incredible script that Greta Gerwig wrote. It's not obvious, that sentiment that she says. I think that's why she has to point it out to the Lady Bird character, but I think if we're lucky in our lives, we can choose the path that we want to go down, whether it's something creative or in the arts or something else. And I think if you're lucky, you can spend your life or your career following something you really love or spending time following the path, whether it's a hobby or your career. And spending that time paying the attention that the craft or the hobby or the creative pursuit wants."Sam Levy studied film in Paris with French New Wave director Eric Rohmer and began his career as an apprentice to legendary cinematographer Harris Savides.

We just watched films, mostly his films, and he would turn the sound off and just talk. It was fantastic. And then we would write papers and discuss. And he talked a lot about his cinematographer Néstor Almendros who shot My Night at Maud's, Pauline at the Beach, Claire's Knee, most of his better-known films.I think the big thing that I got from studying with Rohmer was just his movies are extremely dialogue-heavy, but they're very cinematic. And the way that he would talk about shooting scenes and n a film like My Night at Maud's, that's like largely in one apartment, dialogue spoken between two people, and how to shoot a story that's told through dialogue, but not have it feel like television.And that came in handy later when I did meet Noah Baumbach and Greta Gerwig. Noah's a huge, huge Rohmer fan, so we talked about him a lot. And I think that helped me a lot to have confidence that if a film has a lot of dialogue, for it to feel cinematic and interesting, you don't just need many different angles for the scene to play well. You can kind of show some restraint and even have a scene unfold in one shot and be dynamic, even if people are talking a lot."https://samlevydp.comwww.imdb.com/name/nm1240085/ www.instagram.com/samlevydp/ www.creativeprocess.info www.oneplanetpodcast.org Instagram @creativeprocesspodcast

In director Karen Cinorre's bold new action fantasy film MAYDAY, Ana (Grace Van Patten) finds herself transported to a dreamlike and dangerous coastline. Once there, she joins a female army engaged in a never-ending war where the women lure men to their deaths with radio signals, like 20th century sirens. Though Ana finds strength in this exhilarating world, she comes to realize she is not the killer they want her to be. Also starring Mia Goth, Havana Rose Liu, Soko, Théodore Pellerin and Juliette Lewis, MAYDAY was released by Magnolia Pictures on October 1st in theatres and on demand. Today I had the chance to speak with MAYDAY cinematographer Sam Levy about his work on the film. We also discuss the rules artists impose on themselves, expressionism in film, and Sam avoids my questions about the upcoming Fletch film. Quick note about this episode... this is the 3rd time I've had the chance to speak with Sam, the first time was around the release of MAGGIE'S PLAN, the 2nd was for MAYDAY, aaaaannnnd the 3rd was for MAYDAY.

We touch on this in our conversation but I wanted to take a moment to thank Sam for doing this! He is one of my favorite guests and I absolutely love speaking with him. So, its my pleasure to share our 3rd conversation with you. Make sure you check out MAYDAY, its one of the good ones. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/followingfilms/support

He has shot critically acclaimed films such as Lady Bird and Frances Ha. Leading the conversation is David Ebershoff. David’s debut novel, The Danish Girl, was released in 2000 and was subsequently adapted into an Academy Award winning film. Along with a prolific writing career, David worked at Random House for twenty years, working his way up to executive editor and has also taught writing at NYU, Princeton, and Columbia. They cover a range of topics in this captivating chat, from the inspiration and evolution of Mayday, the casting process of the film, the influence of sound in Karen’s work, their upcoming joint project, and David leads them through a fun lightning round of questions.

Before he entered filmmaking Cinematographer Sam Levy would not have described himself as a technical person. He didn’t have the J.J. Abrams Super 8 childhood that many other creatives grew up with. Instead, Levy pitched this missing piece as an asset, not a liability. Levy’s ability to leap without worry of what was underneath him has lead to an impressive career, where he’s shot for directors like Greta Gerwig and Noah Baumbach, and worked on projects for Jerry Seinfeld, Judd Apatow, Norman Lear, and Kanye West. This background led to Levy’s latest project, Mayday, which was written and directed by Karen Cinorre. The story, which is the first project of this scale produced by Levy, is about a girl who is transported to a dreamlike and dangerous land where she joins an army of girls engaged in a never-ending war on the coast. In this interview, the Cinematographer talks about the 1992 documentary Visions of Light, how work ethic is often more important than experience, his fascination with the film Citizen Kane, why creatives should compartmentalize ambitious goals, and how to choose team members who have creative stamina.

We are on location again, Today we are at Fern Bar in Sebastopol, With The bar manager and partner Sam Levy! WE talk about him growing up in Sebastopol and how he got into hospitality and why he never works out anymore cheers!
Sam Levy from Fern Bar Sam Levy from Fern Bar, a new locale in Sebastopol, is our first guest today. Ron Lindenbusch from Lagunitas is also in the studio today. This is Fern Bar's third week of operation. Sam Levy is one of the partners there. He used to be bartender at the three-star restaurant Meadowood. Steve says it's about time to bring back the fern bar. They were popular starting in the late 1960s in San Francisco. Sam Levy tells about how fern bars may have become a bit kitschy but they are ready for a comeback because of their strengths. Among many attractions, they have live music, but casually, not as a full-scale music venue. A young listener called to issue a "geek alert" to ask Steve what is a Fern Bar. Sam tells about how they were a popular style beginning in the late '60s. Henry Africa's was the first big one, and TGI Fridays is in the style too. Herlinda says its cozy, with couches and chairs and a jazz trio. Sam mixes a cocktail in the studio, a Tequila cocktail he calls a Guerra, made with tequila blanca, grapefruit juice, lime juice, elder flower liqueur, Aperol and Thai pepper shrub. The next drink is called Chaiwalla, a chai-infused blend of rums, which includes burning sage. He wants his cocktails to be refreshing and not produce a hangover from too much sugar. They have a Type 75 license because they will start brewing their own beer. Their seven-barrel tank system will produce three different beers. His partner Victoria who was wine director at Meadowood. She has put the wine selection together with a lot of the popular local varieties and also some more exotic unfamiliar wines. Sam makes a lot of non-alcoholic cocktails as well. He thinks it's important to have strong flavor combinations because other cocktails can rely on the booze for flavor, but not if there is no alcohol in the mix. The new Hopland Tap House Ron Lindenbusch is in to talk about his new Hopland Tap House, on the grounds of the old Hopland Brewery. Reading from the Ukiah Daily Journal, "When Ron Lindenbusch was tavern manager at the former Hopland Brewery, the famous brew pub on the 101 that featured one of California's original micro brews, the infamous Red Tail Ale..." It was a time that Ron always remembers was packed with fun. The new Hopland Tap House is now open. Ron moved to California in 1984 he was "fresh out of Missouri" and tasted the beer. He visited a little brewery in Hopland and had a "transcending mind-blowing moment." It's the opposite of the classy look of a fern bar. Ron says it's a wonderful feeling to be back in that building. He worked for Tony Magee at Lagunitas for 23 years. When he drove by and saw it had a "for lease" sign out front, he had to stop to make a call. They're going to grow hops and have music from local bands. It is open now even as they are still working on the kitchen. Don Barkley was the original brew master at Mendocino making Red Tail Ale and now he is making it again at Napa Smith. Everyone is really pleased that all these great brews are coming back.
Sam studied filmmaking at Brown University, and The University of Paris-Michelet, before apprenticing with acclaimed Cinematographer Harris Savides. Sam has worked on commercials and music videos for such directors as Spike Jonze, Mark Romanek, and Stacy Wall. His film projects include, Wendy and Lucy for director Kelly Reichardt, Maggie's Plan for Rebecca Miller, Green Porno for Isabella Rossellini, and Frances Ha for director Noah Baumbach.

This episode of Zack's Film Talks at SDSU is hosted by Libsyn. My guest is cinematographer Sam Levy. As DP for Greta Gerwig's 2017 film Lady Bird, Sam here gives a master class in his craft. Using Lady Bird as a case study, he talks about each step of his job: from making a 110-page shot list for the film to screening the rough cut in Technicolor and doing the color timing—going frame by frame to make sure all the colors are set. He also touches on: the tools of his trade, including graph paper for drawing the set and shot-blocking diagrams varying the grammar of shots in a film coming up with a blueprint of the emotional arc of the story being told the differences between shooting in color and black-and-white the work of cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki (The Revenant) Sam studied comparative literature at Brown University and took Leslie Thornton's 16mm filmmaking class there. Episode edited by Chris Burke.
"Don’t be a nuisance. We don’t need that." Kelly Reichardt has been called a minimalist film director, and if you’re comparing her to someone like Michael Bay or Steven Spielberg or the Hughes brothers, that certainly seems to be the case, at least based on her 2008 film Wendy and Lucy. This film doesn’t have a lot of pizazz or a large cinematic sense. What it does have, though, is a character study in which we dig deeply into our protagonist during a difficult few days in her life. In that aspect, it isn’t minimal at all. Perhaps calling it incredibly focused would be a better way to describe it. Join us – Pete Wright and Andy Nelson – as we kick off a new series on director Kelly Reichardt with her 2008 lost dog film Wendy and Lucy. We talk about this ‘minimalist’ type of filmmaking and how it fits into the larger context of filmed stories that we know and love. We talk about how the story came about and was developed by Reichardt and writer Jon Raymond. We discuss Michelle Williams and her incredible (and incredibly internal) performance as Wendy, and how inadvertently she’s in all three of Reichardt’s films that we’re discussing in this series. We also chat about other actors in the film like Will Patton, Will Oldham, Wally Dalton and John Robinson and what they bring to the table. We look at the cinematography by Sam Levy and chat about what it brings to this story, notably the ‘naturalistic’ grainy and dark scenes. And we touch on the sound design and how Reichardt chose to use train sounds instead of score throughout the film. It’s a touching film yet one we oddly aren’t sure we’d return to anytime soon, but certainly is one well worth talking about. Check out this movie then tune in to the show!

This looks darkly hilarious, if one can laugh at mental instability. Add in Elizabeth Olsen and O’Shea Jackson Jr., you’ve got what looks to be an awesome movie." Pete's Trailer: Black Butterfly — "A remake of Papillon Noir starring Jonathan Rhys Meyers and Antonio Banderas. It’s a Misery trailer that ducks subtlety and goes completely haywire too soon for my tastes, but I’m a sucker for ‘I’m a writer…’ stories so I’ll give this one a shot."

"How'd you like to wake up in the morning and be him?"The Next Reel's Speakeasy is an ongoing series of ours in which we invite an industry guest to join us and bring along one of their favorite movies to talk about. In this month's episode, cinematographer Sam Levy joins us to talk about one of his favorite films, John Huston's 1972 boxing film Fat City. We talk about the depressing story presented here as these characters try to reach the good life and why some of us can connect easier to it than others. We look at the incredible (and incredibly dark) cinematography by Conrad L. Hall and discuss the importance of a cinematographer getting to time their own film. We chat about the brilliant cast, from the actors like Stacy Keach, Jeff Bridges, Susan Tyrrell and Nicholas Colasanto; to the real-life boxers like Curtis Cokes and Sixto Rodriguez. We discuss Kris Kristofferson's song “Help Me Make It Through the Night” and why it works so well in this movie. And we touch on what critics thought of the movie compared with how it did at the box office. John Huston was at a period in his career where he'd been making some duds so it's great to see him return to top form with Fat City. It's a master class in cinematic realism and a boxing film well worth watching and discussing.
