Fox network series scores DP his 1st career Emmy and ASC Award nominations
By Robert Goldrich, The Road To Emmy, Part 13
For Crescenzo Notarile, ASC, AIC--who’s known throughout the industry as Crescenzo--earning his first career primetime Emmy nomination, for the “Azrael” episode of Gotham , is especially gratifying. “I’m extremely proud of it for a number of reasons. We are in the platinum age of television. The creative bar for all categories is extraordinarily high. It’s much more difficult today to poke your head above the surface and stand out--so to be recognized along with my surrounding colleagues while... NEW YORK -- The back and forth between the ANA (Association of National Advertisers) and 4A’s (American Association of Advertising Agencies) over client-agency relations as they pertain to media transparency continues as Bob Liodice, CEO of the ANA, has responded to the 4A’s recent decision to reject the recommendations in the ANA/Ebiquity Report. Those guidelines were issued after the release of an ANA-commissioned assessment by K2 Intelligence that found non-transparent business practices, including cash... By David Bauder, Television Writer
NEW YORK (AP) -- The chief of NBC Sports said Thursday the Rio Games are a huge hit and that he doesn't anticipate having to make concessions to advertisers. While NBC's prime-time viewership for the Rio games hasn't reached the levels of London 2012, the dip has been offset by increases in people streaming content to their mobile devices or watching on cable networks like Bravo and NBCSN, said Mark Lazarus, chairman of the NBC Sports Group. He expects there to be more streamed content from Rio than for all of... By Mae Anderson, Business Writer
NEW YORK (AP) -- The Olympics are full of stories of underdogs triumphing against the odds for athletic glory. But in the case of Olympic marketing, smaller brands are finding it tough to prevail amid strict rules. Sponsors such as Visa, Samsung and Coca-Cola pay hundreds of millions of dollars to be associated with the Olympics. So the International Olympic Committee cracks down on non-sponsoring brands that reference the Olympics by name or use Olympic logos in tweets or advertisement. This extends to... Slate includes films on Leonardo DiCaprio, Amanda Knox, Jane Jacobs, James Baldwin, John Coltrane and the “6th Beatle”
TORONTO -- The Toronto International Film Festival’s 2016 documentary program presents a diverse collection of works from award-winning directors including Steve James, Raoul Peck, Errol Morris, and Werner Herzog, plus new talent telling stories in global hot spots such as Syria, Pakistan, and Myanmar. Leonardo DiCaprio is prominently featured in a rousing call to action on climate change in The Turning Point, in collaboration with Academy Award winner Fisher Stevens. TIFF Docs is sponsored by A&E... TORONTO -- The Toronto International Film Festival revealed its lineup for Platform, the juried program that champions director’s cinema from around the world. In its second year, the international lineup includes two Canadian features as well as selections from Australia, France, Bhutan, Belgium, USA, the United Kingdom, and the Netherlands. This year, Platform takes on complex and bold narratives that range from a dark, twisted fantasy, a dramatic crime thriller, an existential illusion to the... SANTA MONICA, Calif. -- Tool of North America has signed Danish director Martin Aamund to its live-action roster for worldwide representation. His body of work spans documentaries and commercials. A resident of Copenhagen, Aamund--who was previously repped by Persuade for spots and branded content--is known for his creative, yet methodical approach to human-centered storytelling. Aamund began his filmmaking career directing documentary films for the UK’s Channel 4 and France’s Canal Plus. Since then, he has directed... LOS ANGELES -- Bob Industries, the house headed by partners/exec producers T.K. Knowles, John O’Grady and Chuck Ryant, has added three directors to its roster for exclusive U.S. representation: Jan Wentz, well known in Europe for his cinematic, narrative work for global brands such as Audi and Samsung; Jonathan Hock whose filmography ranges from indie documentaries ( The Lost Son of Havana, Off the Rez and his latest film, Fastball , released at this year’s Tribeca Film Festival) to multiple docs for ESPN’s... NEW YORK -- DDB NY has added Chris Klein and Alan Leber as executive producers. Klein will serve as EP on the Time Warner Cable and Johnson & Johnson Beauty accounts.

NEW YORK -- Framestore Pictures has added director Tom Routson to its roster. He joins a talent pool curated by Framestore Pictures’ EPs Jennifer Siegel and John Duffin. Routson first established himself on the agency creative side of the business at such shops as Goodby Silverstein & Partners and Fallon.

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) -- Television viewers know there's a mind-boggling array of shows to attempt to watch. John Landgraf, the chief executive of FX Networks, predicted change is coming but not until the number of scripted series peaks at about 500 per year. With a greater supply of U.S. television than can be profitably produced, the industry is "ballooning into a condition of oversupply" that will likely peak in the next two years and then slowly deflate, Landgraf told a TV critics meeting Tuesday. "I'm not saying... By Anick Jesdanun, Technology Writer
NEW YORK (AP) -- If you want to glimpse the future of sports broadcasting, you can check out the Rio Olympics in virtual reality. But if you really want to immerse yourself in the competition, just turn on the TV. NBC, BBC and other Olympic networks around the world are offering the opening and closing ceremonies and selected events in VR, giving viewers a 360-degree perspective - that is, the ability to look up, down and all around - when they wear special headsets. It's a first in Olympics broadcasting, and... By Julie Bycowicz
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Rio Olympics are in full swing: Michael Phelps is back to winning races in the pool, Simone Biles is running up the score in the gym and Hillary Clinton is advertising with eyes on doing just as well on Election Day. Donald Trump isn't even competing. The Democratic presidential nominee is airing $13.6 million in campaign commercials during the Summer Games, seeking to reach the millions of television viewers who can't skip past the commercials as they watch live coverage of the Olympics... By Lynn Elber, Television Writer
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) -- The Rio Games had a less-than-golden start for NBC but were enough of a draw to allow the network to dominate the weekly ratings. The Summer Olympics opening ceremony had 26.5 million viewers, according to Nielsen company figures released Tuesday. That’s a 35 percent drop compared to the 40.7 million U.S. viewers who watched the opening of the London Games four years ago — although NBC is pointing to more time-shifted viewing and streaming as factors in the decrease. Still, Olympic broadcasts... NEW YORK -- Bill Hewes has joined X3 Films--a division of digital creative studio Click 3X--as executive producer. He brings an ensemble of global animation talent along with him. Hewes is well versed in all forms of content creation, spanning motion design, animation, VFX, live action and postproduction. Previously, Hewes was EP and managing director of th1ng, where he opened and managed all aspects of the U.S. office for the London-based production shop. During his tenure there, he also oversaw creative... By Barbara Ortutay, Technology Writer
NEW YORK (AP) -- Facebook is blocking ad blockers on the desktop version of its service, saying well-made, relevant ads can be "useful." At the same time, the world's biggest social media company says it is giving users easier ways to decide what types of ads they want to see — unless, of course, the answer is "none." Ad blockers filter out ads by refusing to display page images and other elements that originated with a known ad server. But Facebook has found a way around this. Beginning Tuesday, the desktop... By Mae Anderson, Business Writer
NEW YORK (AP) -- At Disney, content is king. The media conglomerate's studio entertainment, including popular films such as the animated "Finding Dory," ''The Jungle Book" and the Marvel saga "Captain America: Civil War," helped boost the company's third-quarter profit above expectations. But The Walt Disney Co.'s cable and broadcast channel revenue growth was weaker. Disneysaid it will also spend $1 billion for a 33 percent stake in the Major League Baseball video streaming service BAMTech. Media companies... By Lindsey Bahr, Film Writer
It's happened. Someone has outdone the "Team America" puppet sex scene and even made it look somewhat quaint in comparison. Anyone even vaguely interested in the very R-rated animated film "Sausage Party " has likely heard whispers about the food orgy. Words can't even begin to do this sequence justice, but I guarantee you've never seen anything like it in a mainstream studio movie. It's jaw-dropping. Of course it's compliments of the minds that blew up a foreign leader in "The Interview" and... By Jake Coyle, Film Writer
NEW YORK (AP) -- After an exhausting summer buffet of set pieces, superheroes and whatever s-word you might use for "Suicide Squad," the gentle "Pete's Dragon" is a welcome palate cleanser. Where other summer movies are chest-thumping, it's quiet; where others are brashly cynical, it's sweetly sincere; where others are lacking in giant cuddly dragons, "Pete's Dragon" has one. Few may remember the 1977 Disney original, in which a young boy's best friend was a bubbly dragon invisible to others. As part of Disney'... By Jake Coyle, Film Writer
NEW YORK (AP) -- The supervillain romp "Suicide Squad" shrugged off scathing reviews to open with an estimated $135.1 million in North American ticket sales, scoring one of the year's biggest box-office debuts. Pressure had risen on the performance of the Warner Bros. film, directed by David Ayer, following the studio's previous poorly received DC Comics film, "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice." But "Suicide Squad" proved a massive draw despite its much-derided lead-in. It set a record for an August opening,... This Donate Life PSA promotes organ donation by introducing us to Coleman F. Sweeney, billed as the world’s biggest a-hole. Portrayed by actor Thomas Jane, Sweeney is mean, belligerent, crude and someone you would want no part of. His behavior is front and center in this spot. Yet when he dies, we finally see something redeeming about him--he had signed up to be an organ donor and we see the good that results as his various organs give a new lease on life to others. This online piece shows us... Following the water crisis travesty, Flint, Mich., was portrayed nationally as a city in danger of being broken by circumstance, a city in need. But its people came together as a community, supporting each other in any way they could, exemplifying the city’s resilience. The narrative of a city in need turned into one of a city that will overcome. And this video titled What is Flint? from the Flint Fwd movement captures that city’s resurgence. Posted on YouTube as well as on Flint Fwd’s Facebook... This new branded short for Ray-Ban centers on the comedically surreal story of a young man named Jerome. As a result of societal pressure to suppress his feelings, Jerome repeatedly blurts out “I love you” far too soon in every romantic encounter. After being “cured” by a hypnotherapist, he must fight to reconnect with his sensitive nature to save a budding relationship with featured musician Natalie Prass and express his true feelings. Titled Oh Jerome, No , this short was directed by... Giving a nod to the memorable Partnership for a Drug-Free America PSA from the 1980s (directed by Joe Pytka of PYTKA), the Partnership for Drug-Free Kids and agency Campbell Ewald have teamed with director Janusz Kaminski (the Oscar-winning cinematographer for Schindler’s List and Saving Private Ryan) of Independent Media Inc. to create a new “Fried Egg 2016” spot. The new PSA shows us an egg sizzling in a pan--akin to Pytka's classic brain on drugs being fried--before seguing to the difficult... This 1980s’ style music video stars the Electric Furs, a fictitious band made up of cats singing and playing instruments, performing a feline rendition of “Don’t You (Forget About Me)” by Simple Minds. The cats encourage their owners to remember to treat them to Mars Petcare’s Temptations taste treats. Ninian Doff of Pulse Films directed this music clip which is part of adam&eveDDB London’s “Treat Them Too” campaign for Temptations. “Cat videos are brilliant fun, and millions of people... Titled “One Team,” this spot opens with the slate “America has 32 Favorite NFL Teams” as groundskeepers from across the League are shown getting ready for the season, painting stencils in their stadium end zones. It’s revealed that they have all painted “TEAM USA.” The moment is underscored by an original rendition of the Star-Spangled Banner recorded by award-winning indie pop star, St. Vincent, to set a reverent tone. The end slate says simply “This summer, we are all one team” followed by...
