Michael Lange:
Lange's first job was on The Fall Guy in 1982 as a post production assistant and after a year he
was promoted to second unit director, in which role he shot almost thirty episodes (second unit
only) for the show.[1] He then moved on to Riptide and later, in his self-described leap to "quality
television", Life Goes On in 1993.[2] Since then, he has garnered directorial credits from two
hundred and forty television episodes, including amongst many others The O.C., Beverly
Hills, 90210, The Larry Sanders Show, Northern Exposure, Eureka, The Pretender, Buffy the Vampire
Slayer, The X-Files, Eli Stone Brothers & Sisters, One Tree Hill, Dirty Sexy Money, Dawson's
Creek, Point Pleasant, Miss Match, Everwood, Diagnosis: Murder, Jake and the
Fatman and Greek.[3] He has directed one feature film, Intern, and theDisney Channel television
movie Jumping Ship.[1] He has recently been working on the ABC Family series, "Greek" as a Co-
Executive Producer/Director. Additionally, he's the Co-Executive Producer/Director on Lifetime's
"Drop Dead Diva". He's about to begin working on a new ABC Family series called "Jane By
Design" as Co-Executive Producer/Director.
Most recently, Lange has created Flashbang Productions, LLC, a partnership with Shannon
Murphy. Flashbang is in development on several projects involving the Bureau of
Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives; a one hour drama, tentatively titled "ATF", a

Joseph Nemec III
Joseph Nemec has been making films for over thirty years for both major
Hollywood studios and independent film production companies both in America
and abroad. Coming from an architectural background, Joseph's principal focus
has been as the Production Designer on some of Hollywood's biggest films. Joseph
has nearly two decades of international film making experience and has therefore
spent time based in both Hollywood and London. Joseph has been principally
involved in the design and implementation of large visual effects driven films and
has collaborated with directors Phillip Noyce (Patriot Games, The Saint), James
Cameron (The Abyss, Terminator-2), and Stephen Spielberg (Color
Purple, Goonies). Joseph continues to work on both local and international
production and recently completed "Riddick", another visual effects driven film.

FILMMAKING SEMINAR
Guest TV / Feature Writer
For the Television guest speaker we are currently seeking an established writer such as
Deborah J Fisher (Twisted, Law & Order: LA, The Forgotten, Criminal Minds and CBS/Sony
Pictures Entertainment/Gran Via Productions)
Screenwriters are responsible for researching the story, developing the narrative, writing
the screenplay, and delivering it, in the required format, to development executives.
Screenwriters therefore have great influence over the creative direction and emotional
impact of the screenplay and, arguably, of the finished film. They either pitch original
ideas to producers in the hope that they will be optioned or sold, or screenwriters are
commissioned by a producer to create a screenplay from a concept, true story, existing
screen work or literary work, such as a novel, poem, play, comic book or short story.
