Scott Rice- A Filmmaker’s Journey
Manage episode 323667129 series 3244083
Award-winning director Scott Rice @scottricedirector, is happy to be making the films he envisioned as a kid. His strongest influence was ET, and his role model, Steven Spielberg. He decided early on that he was going to be a part of making that kind of fantasy.
Fast forward to 2022, and Scott is now known for being an actor’s director, in this interview he reveals what that means and the importance of giving actors a playable direction in order to get a better performance from them.
Even with the pressure that a director is under from the producer, the studio and the ad agency in the case of a TV commercial, Scott emphasizes how the director needs to be a pillar of stability for the actors.
He’s worked with talent like Glenn Close, Brett Favre and Matthew McConaughey with whom he co-teaches the film course Script to Screen at the University of Texas, a very coveted program for aspiring filmmakers since the students are taken to the set of films that Mathew is working on and he will share with them exclusive material and turn the experience into a learning opportunity for the class. From Mathews' idea Scott developed the curriculum for the class which is now in its sixth year of existence.
Scott is also the owner/executive producer of Two Shot West, a production company in Austin, Texas.https://twoshotwest.com/
He directed several episodes in the Mental Health PBS series called Stories of the Mind, Scott has been a mental illness advocate since going through personal struggles, to him it has been a labor of love.
You can find out more about the series on www.mentalhealthchannel.tv
Scott has had a very satisfying career, specially in the commercial side, he has made commercials with giant spider monsters and apocalyptic scenes, and many stunts, the kind of things he created when he was a kid.
The advice he shares for aspiring directors is on point and plentiful in this interview, like the fact that a director should stop being so precious about their work, there is more than one right answer, so they should make a decision and move on to the next thing, make the next thing, and move on after that. There’s plenty to discover in this interview!
Even though Scott has an enormous amount of work between teaching and his production company, he remains a very positive person, he is devoted to his students and his work.
