(See story on C-1) In addition to supporting the showcase, the commission, which is part of the Governor’s Continued from C-1 Showcase rolls on making, the evening will also include a documentary called “Reenactress,” by J. R. Hardman, Sundance Institute’s manager of operations for artists. “J.R. moved here from the Deep South, where she participates in Civil War reenactments,” Orschel said. “Most of these reenactments are done by males, but there is a group of women who dress up as soldiers and do these portrayals.” The documentary, while humorous at times, examines the challenges these women face, including ridicule from the men while they act out the historical battles, according to Orschel. Another documentary that is yet untitled is by Paige Sparks, who spotlights her grandmother. “The grandmother is a sweet woman, and in the film, she recounts how her husband abused her, which she hasn’t talked about before,” Orschel said. “She also tells why she chose Convenient Banking Stop by or use our online banking or mobile app. Bank the way that’s best for you.

One area Mellus enjoys showing off is Summit County, drawing attention to its “spectacular locations” from Park City’s historic Main Street, to the Uinta Mountains and Summit Park, Mellus said. ”You have the Wasatch mountains and you have the beautiful towns, like Echo,” he said. “As sparse as it can be, it is still a wonderful place to make a movie because of its aura.” Summit County also features an array of geological and geographical variation, Mellus said. “It’s unique that the red rock that surrounds Echo can look as if you’re somewhere 800 miles south of here,” he said. “There are a lot of great agricultural areas in Summit County. These types of areas are quickly disappearing in Salt Lake County.” The abundance of the county’s private ranches are also a boon to filmmakers, Mellus said. “It’s easier to film on private property because of the permit process required to film onC federally owned or managedT to stay with her husband. And what audiences will see is this real nuanced mindset that goes beyond her being a victim or feeling trapped in the situation, because it will start to understand why she stayed.” Stories such as the ones Sparks’ grandmother and Savannah tell are surfacing because women are starting to be heard, Orschel said. “With the #MeToo movement and things like that, women have been emboldened to tell their stories, and people are listening,” she said. As a filmmaker herself, Orschel has found that films in any genre — documentary, experimental, narrative and animation — by women go deeper into the human experience, she said. “There are traditional hero stories about the good guy slaying the dragon, but us females are slaying the dragons with,” she said. “Sometimes the purpose of a film isn’t to shoot, tackle and beat the dragons. It can also be about centering oneself.” Returning female filmmakers who have shown at past showcases include the Also Sisters (Miriam and Sonia), Nan Chalat-Noaker of Nanimation Studios, Kelsie Moore from RadioWest, Bolivia-born Angela Rosales Challis and Park City High School junior Mia Cutler. “These filmmakers have upped their games in recent years and are putting out well-crafted stories that require a lot of hard work and tenacity,” Orschel said. Orschel is grateful that the Utah Film Commission has come on board as the Filmmakers Showcase lead sponsor. “They are also working to support local filmmakers, because they see the importance of the unique stories these smaller, grassroots films tell,” she said. The Utah Film Commission, which is part of the Governor’s Office of Economic Development, supports Utah as a filmmaking destination, and also promotes any filmmaking that takes place in the state, said Derek Mellus, Utah Film Commission production manager. (See story on C-7) “We also do that by working with organizations like the Filmmakers Showcase, because what Jill does is bring attention to the talent in the state and the work they do,” Mellus said. “The showcase illustrates just how much work and quality is being produced in the state by other filmmakers.” Having filmmakers see each others’ works is not only important to the community at large, but also the local filmmaking community, Mellus said. “I think everybody feeds offS of each others’ abilities andT inspires them to make more stuff,” he said. “Also, a filmmaker may see an actor in one film and want to cast that person in their film.” Mellus respects Orschel as a filmmaker, but also a festival curator. “There is a large amount of work that goes into the hours it takes watching and weeding through the films to come up with a program,” he said. Over the years, Mellus has seen a growth in the filmmaking talent behind films that have screened in the showcase. “I coordinate a short-film festival called the Fear No Film Festival with the Utah Arts Festival, and there are many films I’ve seen in the showcase that I just had to program for my festival,” he said. Orschel is also grateful for her partnership with Park City Film, one of the sponsors for the Filmmakers Showcase. “They started the Made in Utah program, which we are part of, and that is starting to take off in a wonderful way,” she said. “As a filmmaker, it’s exciting to have organizations such as Park City Film reach out in a grassroots level to helping underrepresented voices, such as female filmmakers, get their stories out.” Orschel said filmmaking has become more competitive in the past few years because of wider accessibility to cameras and editing software and programming, due to technological advances. “The content and creator pool is enormous,” she said. “It’s hard to stand out, and the resources that are available to filmmakers is few and far in-between and very competitive.” This is why Orschel continues curating the showcase. “Being a filmmaker myself, it’s wonderful and important to have the gatekeepers, such as programmers and exhibitors, support filmmakers and filmmaking and encourage networking opportunities,” she said. “This is what the filmmakers’ showcase has always been about. We want to gather filmmakers, film lovers and film supporters together under one roof to get inspired by great art and storytelling.” b Please see County, C-3i Get the top local news stories delivered directly to your inbox with a new weekly email update from the Park Record!
