IFP/Chicago and Facets Cinémathèque present
MEET THE FILMMAKERS monthly series

An Evening of Shorts by Scott Smith
and a Rough Cut Screening of
ATOM SMASHERS

IFP/Chicago is pleased to present the short films of chicago filmmaker Scott Smith. As Creative Director for ad agencies Leo Burnett and Element 79, Scott has developed many award winning campaigns that have played an integral role in brand building for clients like Disney, Quaker, Hallmark, Miller Brewing, Sony, and Kellogg's. In 2000, Scott began writing and directing his own commercials, as well as several award winning short films. He hasn't stopped since. In 2004, he was named one of the top three directors (out of nearly 1,800 competitors) in Project Greenlight's directing competition, a Budweiser Discovery Filmmaker award nominee, as well as named "Best Director" at the 2004 Chicago Community Cinema Awards.

Most recently, Scott's documentary short Waiting on God was named an official 2007 selection of the Beverly Hills Film Festival. Currently, he is in production on a feature documentary called Being Bucky, as well as development on the feature film Ink, which he co-wrote with Eric Anderson and will be directing.

Shorts featured:

Ten (2004)
A man breaks all ten commandments in a couple minutes.

And Then I Woke Up (2004)
Project Greenlight top 10 director assignment.

Low Note (2006)
A woman discovers something about her husband that she'd rather not know.

Waiting on God (2006)
A short doc about a South Side Chicago Preacher who has a plan for peace. All he needs is $18 million.

Bye (2007)
A suicidal therapist can't seem to kill himself.

Ink (2006)
A Chicago newspaper editor ends up a scapegoat for keeping a Halloween morning tragedy to himself.

Rough Cut: The Atom Smashers
The culmination of two gripping races: a forty-year international scientific competition to find the most important subatomic particle in the universe, and the effort of a massive machine buried beneath the Illinois prairie built to find it.

Please join us for a Q&A with the filmmakers following the screening. They are looking for feedback from a public audience, that's you! So, bring your best ideas and feel free to offer suggestions, compliments, and comments.
