Here’s a chance for two of you to have lunch and a consultation with Stephanie Austin and Scott Thaler, known in Hollywood for their visual effects and action sequences in Hollywood blockbusters, including AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON, TERMINATOR 2: JUDGMENT DAY and more.
Consult about planning and executing visual effects and action, and learn about working in foreign locations from two pros with a combined 60+ years in the film, television and commercial business. As a Producer and Production Manager team, they worked with Jim Cameron on TRUE LIES, Renny Harlin on THE LONG KISS GOODNIGHT, and Breck Eisner on SAHARA. Stephanie’s other producing credits include TERMINATOR 2: JUDGMENT DAY, BEHIND ENEMY LINES and SHANGHAI KNIGHTS. Scott’s other UPM credits include AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON, CAPTAIN PHILLIPS, MISSION IMPOSSIBLE: GHOST PROTOCOL, THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL, BATTLE: LOS ANGELES, THE CRAZIES, and many more.
Stephanie got her start in New York at legendary independent studio New Line Cinema, and after moving to Los Angeles, produced long-form television for many years, first as an executive for Robert Papazian Productions where she served as Vice President, and later, as associate producer on over thirty television movies and miniseries, including the controversial telefilm THE DAY AFTER and the twelve-hour miniseries NORTH AND SOUTH BOOK II. She has recently returned to her indie roots, forming an ancillary partnership with Sara Risher, former President of New Line Cinema, in the female-centric venture, Chickflicks.
Formerly President of Roadhouse Films, Scott Thaler is an action unit specialist, uniquely qualified to travel internationally and work with government and private sector worldwide to facilitate the filmmaking process in a safe and cost-effective environment.
