Wearing many hats on a project lends itself to greater creative control, but how do you keep the roles in balance? &nbsp;Learn about balancing roles as well as how actors, writers, producers and directors pick their scripts from someone who examines scripts from all these perspectives. <br /><br />Reception with Schaech in attendance to follow at New World Deli.<br /><br />Space is limited - so reserve your seat today!</p><p>$10/AFF Members, $15/Non-AFF Members</p><p><a href="http://www.austinfilmfestival.com/">www.austinfilmfestival.com</a> / 512.478.4795<br /><br />----<br />About Johnathon Schaech:<br /><br />As an actor Johnathon Schaech has appeared in such movies as Houdini, Judas, Hush, Prom Night, Sea of Dreams, The Doom Generation, That Thing You Do, The Forsaken, Roadhouse 2 and the upcoming Quarantine.<br /><br />It was after a starring in That Thing You Do!, directed by another well known actor-turned-filmmaker, Tom Hanks, that Schaech&#39;s creative interests led him to explore writing, directing, and producing his own material. Schaech and Richard Chizmar formed Chesapeake Films, which has found success in adapting novels into screenplays for major studios. Projects have included: include Stephen King&#39;s From a Buick 8, Douglas Clegg&#39;s The Hour Before Dark, Stephen King&#39;s Black House, Quitters, Showtime&#39;s Master of Horrors series, NBC&#39;s Fear Itself and Road House 2: Last Call. The Poker Club, currently in post production, teamed Schaech with 2005&#39;s AFF award winning narrative film Runaway director Tim McCann. Schaech served as writer, producer, and actor on the film.<br /><br />Schaech has attended the Austin Film Festival with several films including two of his directorial turns, Miserable Comforters (AFF 2001) and Heroes (AFF 2002); as well as Little Chenier (AFF 2006) which features a critically acclaimed performance by the actor. </p></font><a href="http://austinfilmfestival.myshopify.com/products/conversations-in-film-may-18th"></a> http://do512.com/event/2008/05/18/austin-film-festival-presents-conversations-in-film-w-johnathon-schaech http://do512.com/event/2008/05/18/austin-film-festival-presents-conversations-in-film-w-johnathon-schaech.xml Sunday 05/18/08 20080518T190000Z/20080518T050000Z false 0 2.90625 02:00 PM Sun, 18 May 2008 14:00:00 -0500 Sun, 18 May 2008 14:00:00 -0500 3 SUN http://austinfilmfestival.myshopify.com/products/conversations-in-film-may-18th http://s3.amazonaws.com/do512/photos/44689/Johnathon-Schaech_web_sq_90.jpg Hyde Park Theatre 24 http://do512.com/venue/hyde-park-theatre http://do512.com/venue/hyde-park-theatre.xml

It is the unassuming home of one of the best trailer collections in the world. It is lined with filing drawers, labeled alphabetically, housing over 2000 trailers, ranging from...AND SARTANA KILLED THEM ALL to ZU: WARRIORS OF THE MAGIC MOUNTAIN. Regular patrons of the Alamo theaters get a chance to see the best of these trailers one or two at a time. People who aren't lucky enough to live nearby have never had the option to delve into this magic collection. Until now. <br /><br /> Synapse DVD has partnered with your favorite film programmers - us - to put together a fifth installment of their hugely popular <em>42nd Street Forever</em> DVD series, this time focusing entirely on the Leagues' Alamo trailer archive. And as a very special treat, we are going to string up the actual film trailers and run them for you as a TRAILERTHON. Some of these trailers are for films you know and love, some are for movies that no one has seen in thirty or more years. And since these are the actual trailer elements you'll be seeing, you'll get all the grime, all the splices, and all the magic you can handle. From kung fu to insane kids' movies to softcore porn: do not miss this orgy of fun!<br /><br /> <strong>As a special bonus, you can buy a special ticket that includes the show and the DVD - all for the price of the DVD alone - $15!</strong></p> <p><br /><strong>Kid Policy:</strong>&nbsp;18 and up; Children 6 and up will be allowed only with a parent or guardian.
