<h3>DIRECTING FOR FILM AND TELEVISION with SARAH ADINA SMITH</h3> <h4>Brought to you by WIFMCO and the COLORADO OFFICE OF FILM, TELEVISION and MEDIA</h4> Join Fort Collins native Sarah Adina Smith for Directing for Film and Television, an interactive workshop.

The Los Angeles Times calls Sarah Adina Smith “…an exciting, singular filmmaker, who seems able to use genre elements for storytelling that can often take on a more spiritual, mystical tone.” Her debut features were two psycho-spiritual thrillers: THE MIDNIGHT SWIM and BUSTER’S MAL HEART, the latter of which gave Academy Award winner Rami Malek his first lead role in a feature film. Sarah then broke into TV, directing two celebrated episodes of ROOM 104 for HBO: THE KNOCKANDOO and RALPHIE, which the Hollywood Reporter described as “an internalized nightmare… it’s creepy, weird and sticks with you.” Sarah’s first love is darker, psychological fare but she excels across a wide range of genres. She helmed the Emmy nominated, propulsive action-thriller HANNA for Amazon as well as the sweetly sentimental LOOKING FOR ALASKA for Hulu before writing and directing her first studio feature: BIRDS OF PARADISE, a dance drama starring Diana Silvers and Kristine Froseth. Most recently, she wrote and directed the Hulu comedy THE DROP starring Jermaine Fowler and Anna Konkle and directed the first two episodes of the Golden Globe nominated LESSONS IN CHEMISTRY, starring Academy Award winner Brie Larson for Apple+. She won the DGA award for best directing of a limited series for her episode “Her &amp; Him.”

Doors will open at 2:30 with some light snacks and drinks available. The workshop will start promptly at 3:00 PM.The workshop is being held at the Fort Collins Public Media temporary space at 117 N Mason St.There is construction happening on Mason, so it can get a little confusing.
