Issue #220 – Apprentices in Action

Film Connection student Hap Lea (Charlotte, NC) who externs with Wes Cobb at WestArt Video recently worked on the upcoming indie film “Inner City Rats” as both a script supervisor and PA:
Speaking of the roles he played on the production, Hap says script supervising enabled him to call on his solid writer’s intuition and the insights he’s gained while training with screenwriting mentor Philip Halprin (Snow Dogs, The In Crowd).
“Being the author of six books and also a Film Connection student, I was able to see where there was some disconnect between what the writer thought he was communicating and what would actually make an impact or make sense to the audience because ultimately they’re the ones judging the movie as a whole.
You yourself can like the project but will the audience like it and understand it as well? [When working with a writer] you have to go at it in a very subtle and kind way while still communicating that you get their vision…while proposing various solutions or calling their attention to certain things. Ultimately the choice is up to them, but there’s definitely value in doing the work.”
