SUMMARY:PARTNER EVENT: F1 VFX Round Table - Q&Agency
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Q&Agency \nSponsored by Apple Original Films \nDubbed “the greatest that never was\,” Sonny Hayes (Brad Pitt) was FORMULA 1’s most promising phenom of the 1990s until an accident on the track nearly ended his career. Thirty years later\, he’s a nomadic racer-for-hire when he’s approached by his former teammate Ruben Cervantes (Javier Bardem)\, owner of a struggling FORMULA 1 team that is on the verge of collapse. Ruben convinces Sonny to come back to FORMULA 1 for one last shot at saving the team and being the best in the world. He’ll drive alongside Joshua Pearce (Damson Idris)\, the team’s hotshot rookie intent on setting his own pace. But as the engines roar\, Sonny’s past catches up with him and he finds that in FORMULA 1\, your teammate is your fiercest competition — and the road to redemption is not something you can travel alone. (Synopsis by Apple Original Films) \nGuests:\nVisual effects supervisor Ryan Tudhope; visual effects supervisor Robert Harrington; supervising sound editor and sound designer Al Nelson; supervising sound editor Gwendolyn Yates Whittle; editor Stephen Mirrione\, ACE \nGuest Bio:\nRyan Tudhope – Ryan most recently served as overall Visual Effects Supervisor for F1: The Movie\, reuniting with director Joseph Kosinski to design effects that are invisible yet essential—immersing audiences in the film’s heart-pounding action without ever perceiving the craft behind it. Previously\, he oversaw the visual effects on Top Gun: Maverick\, earning an Academy Award nomination for his work. He demonstrates a particular interest in the convergence of live-action stunts and visual effects—sophisticated\, invisible work born from close collaboration with directors\, cinematographers\, and physical departments. Combining these techniques with a deep understanding of digital effects\, he strives for results that feel grounded and authentic. An entrepreneur as well as a filmmaker\, Ryan co-founded the visual effects studio Atomic Fiction\, guiding its growth to over 350 employees. Under his leadership\, the team delivered projects such as Blade Runner 2049\, Deadpool\, Pirates of the Caribbean\, Ghost in the Shell\, Star Trek Beyond\, and Cosmos\, which earned him an Emmy nomination. Atomic Fiction was acquired by Deluxe in 2018. Earlier in his career\, Ryan’s supervisor credits included Hellboy\, Sin City\, and Superman Returns. He began at Lucasfilm’s Skywalker Ranch at just 18 years old\, working directly with George Lucas to design key sequences for Star Wars: Episode I. He is a member of both the Television Academy and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. \nRobert Harrington – Having worked on both “The Sandman” and three seasons of HBO’s “His Dark Materials” Rob has recently lent his skills to a slightly more grounded affair: the high-octane “F1″\, directed by Joseph Kosinski\, starring Brad Pitt and produced by Pitt\, Jerry Bruckheimer\, Dede Gardner\, Jeremy Kleiner\, Chad Oman and Lewis Hamilton\, work which earned an Academy Award nomination for Best Visual Effects. Other high-end projects include work on the dark dystopian sci-fi of “Black Mirror” along with National Geographic’s global event series MARS – a project that saw him overseeing the production’s VFX on-set in Budapest and Morocco. Prior to this\, Rob’s career was spent on large-scale advertising projects\, serving as Technical Director and CG Supervisor for a range of high-profile clients. His award-winning work included the ’Shapeshifter’ campaign for Shell and the much-loved ‘Mog’s Christmas Calamity; for UK supermarket chain Sainsbury’s\, as well as title sequences for major feature films such as “Spectre.” \nAl Nelson – Nelson is an award-winning American sound engineer. Nelson won an Academy Award in the category of Best Sound for 2023’s “Top Gun: Maverick” directed by Joseph Kosinski and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer\, Tom Cruise\, Christopher McQuarrie and David Ellison. Nelson’s previous credits include “Twisters\,” “Knives Out\,” “Jurassic World: Dominion\, “Gone Girl\, ”Only the Brave\,” “Oblivion\,” “Up” and “The Incredibles.” He is a 30-time MPSE Golden Reel nominee\, winning for “Top Gun: Maverick\,” “The Music of Strangers: Yo-Yo Ma and the Silk Road Ensemble\, “How to Train Your Dragon (2011)\,” “Up\,” “Wall-E\,” “Ratatouille\,” and “The Incredibles” in various categories. \nGwendolyn Yates Whittle – Gwen Whittle is a Supervising Sound Editor with over 35 years of experience working on over 125 films\, from blockbusters to small independents. Gwen has been nominated for three Academy Awards (Avatar: Way of Water\, Tron: Legacy and Avatar)\, a BAFTA (Avatar: Way of Water)\, an Emmy (WandaVision) and in 2023 was honored with an MPSE career achievement award. She has won 6 MPSE Golden Reel awards: Titanic\, Saving Private Ryan\, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button\, Super 8\, Epic\, and Carne e Arena. Her more than 20 MPSE nominations include Top Gun: Maverick\, Ferdinand\, Munich\, and Minority Report. Gwen was awarded an honorary PhD from the Academy of Art University in San Francisco and has a BA in film from New York University. She is a member of the Academy of Motion Pictures (AMPAS)\, British Academy of Film and Television (BAFTA)\, SAG\, and MPSE. \n\n\n\nStephen Mirrone\, ACE – Stephen Mirrione’s career as a film editor has been defined by several influential collaborations with some of the most innovative directors over the past thirty years. Beginning with Doug Liman’s “Swingers” (1996) and “Go” (1999)\, Mirrione’s kinetic style caught the eye of Steven Soderbergh. After editing “Traffic” (2000)\, which earned four Academy Awards® including Best Film Editing for Mirrione\, the two continued to work together on several films\, including “Ocean’s Eleven” (2001)\, “The Informant!” (2009)\, and “Contagion” (2011). It was during this run that Soderbergh introduced Mirrione to George Clooney. Mirrione would edit six films for Clooney\, including his directorial debut “Confessions of a Dangerous Mind” (2002) as well as “Good Night\, and Good Luck” (2005)\, and “The Ides of March” (2011). Another frequent collaborator\, Alejandro González Iñárritu\, inspired editorial versatility in Mirrione’s work from the time-fractured jump cuts of “21 Grams” (2003) to the dreamy continuous long-shot effect created for “Birdman” (2014)\, which went on to take the Oscar® for Best Picture. Over editing five movies for Iñárritu\, Mirrione earned two more Academy Award® nominations for his work on “Babel” (2006) and “The Revenant” (2015). Other notable projects include editing “13 Conversations About One Thing” (2001) for Jill Sprecher\, “The Hunger Games” (2012) for Gary Ross\, and “August: Osage County” (2013) for John Wells. More recently\, director Joseph Kosinski brought Mirrione on to help edit “Top Gun: Maverick” (2022)\, where Mirrione became immersed in the director’s style defined by sleek visuals\, detailed production design at a massive scale and groundbreaking high-resolution aerial photography.

SUMMARY:SIGGRAPH 2025 Recap Roundtable online
DESCRIPTION:  \n \n \nEvery year at the Siggraph convention\, the VES brings a great contingent into town\, and a great community to share and socialize with. But not everyone (not even most of us!) get to go to the show. That’s why we do a roundtable online to bring attendees together with our members who want to hear about what happened\, what went down\, and what was up this year. \nIt’s a chance to get a glimpse of what the conference had to offer\, hear about trending tech topics\, and ask questions about what’s making an impression across the computer graphics industry. \nThe format will be a 1-hour Zoom session with speakers sharing their observations\, in a roundtable setting for conversations and multiple perspectives. \nMonday\, September 22nd\n6:30pm PDT  \nThis will NOT be recorded\, so we hope to see you there\, LIVE! \nNo need to RSVP\, just join the call with this link:\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/meetings/81898450909/ \nIf you have topics you would like to see addressed\, please send an email in advance to the evening’s moderator: \nJeff A. Johnson\, Chair\, Bay Area Board of Managers\nbayareaschair@vesglobal.org
