Evan Schiff

Editor · Known for Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn), John Wick: Chapter 2, John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum

Originally from Syracuse, NY, Evan Schiff started his career in the film industry at the age of 16, between his junior and senior years of high school, with an internship at Legacy EFX (formerly Stan Winston Studio). After graduating from high school and being accepted into USC's film production program, SWS hired Schiff back to do tech support as their systems administrator. He worked there part-time for all four years of college and full-time for one year after, in the process helping to set up their visual effects department, SW Digital, as well as giving a hand anywhere he could. It's a place where you can wear as many hats as you want to fit on your head, and one of Schiff's favourite "not in my job description" tasks he volunteered for was to help solder multicolour LEDs into and then assemble a robot head for A.I. - Artificial Intelligence.  During college, though, Schiff got bit by the editing bug. He found that, even more than creature or visual effects, Schiff loved sitting in the editing bay for hours on end putting his student films together. So a year after college, and five years after starting his job at Stan Winston's, Schiff left to pursue editing full-time. It was slow at first, but through some family connections, friends he made at SWS, and a bit of luck, Schiff got his first few jobs as an assistant editor, and things have taken off from there.

Pope John Paul II photo

Pope John Paul II

Pope John Paul II (born Karol Józef Wojtyła [ˈkarɔl ˈjuzɛv vɔjˈtɨwa]; 18 May 1920 – 2 April 2005) was the head of the Catholic Church and sovereign of the Vatican City State from 1978 until his death in 2005. He was elected pope by the second papal conclave of 1978, which was called after Pope John Paul I, who had been elected in August to succeed Pope Paul VI, died after 33 days. Cardinal Wojtyła was elected on the third day of the conclave and adopted the name of his predecessor in tribute to him. John Paul II is recognised as helping to end Communist rule in his native Poland and the rest of Europe. John Paul II significantly improved the Catholic Church's relations with Judaism, Islam, and the Eastern Orthodox Church. He upheld the Church's teachings on such matters as the right to life, artificial contraception, the ordination of women, and a celibate clergy, and although he supported the reforms of the Second Vatican Council, he was seen as generally conservative in their interpretation. He was one of the most travelled world leaders in history, visiting 129 countries during his pontificate. As part of his special emphasis on the universal call to holiness, he beatified 1,340 and canonised 483 people, more than the combined tally of his predecessors during the preceding five centuries. By the time of his death, he had named most of the College of Cardinals, consecrated or co-consecrated many of the world's bishops, and ordained many priests. John Paul II was the second longest-serving pope in modern history after Pope Pius IX. Born in Poland, John Paul II was the first non-Italian pope since the 16th-century Pope Adrian VI. John Paul II's cause for canonisation commenced one month after his death with the traditional five-year waiting period waived. On 19 December 2009, John Paul II was proclaimed venerable by his successor, Benedict XVI, and was beatified on 1 May 2011 (Divine Mercy Sunday) after the Congregation for the Causes of Saints attributed one miracle to his intercession, the healing of a French nun called Marie Simon Pierre from Parkinson's disease. A second miracle was approved on 2 July 2013, and confirmed by Pope Francis two days later. John Paul II was canonised on 27 April 2014 (again Divine Mercy Sunday), together with Pope John XXIII. On 11 September 2014, Pope Francis added these two optional memorials to the worldwide General Roman Calendar of saints. It is traditional to celebrate saints' feast days on the anniversary of their deaths, but that of John Paul II (22 October) is celebrated on the anniversary of his papal inauguration. Posthumously, he has been referred to by some Catholics as "St. John Paul the Great", although the title has no official recognition.

Production Design · Known for Captain America: Brave New World, Ramayana: Rise of a Legend, The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power

Ramsey Avery is a production designer. Ramsey's interest in the creation of worlds began when he was a University of Wyoming astronomy major. He learned that there were several worlds he could create here, on this one, and that he could travel anyplace on stage and in movies while working as an actor in the theatre at night and organising differential equations by day. He has worked on a wide range of those worlds throughout the many years that have passed. His first project was to art-direct Roseanne, a tiny town in the Midwest. More recently, he created and animated the Second Age settings for The Lord of the Rings. Since then, he has contributed to Marvel's bold visual direction as the PD of Captain America: Brave New World, developed an eerie gaming firm for Matt Shakman's The Consultant, and built the snug nest that Kaitlyn Dever must protect from invaders in No One Will Save You Now. He has worked as an art director on projects that span time and space, including Team America, Star Trek: Into Darkness, Mirror, Mirror, Tomorrowland, and Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2. He has also contributed to the future worlds of Minority Report and A.I. Ramsey is a production designer who worked on the films Peppermint, Hotel Artemis, 10 Cloverfield Lane, and the Sundance Choices Waitress and Right At Your Door. He has also created national ads for brands including Budweiser, Microsoft, Capri Sun, and Dodge for the Super Bowl. Because of his work on the live-action trailer for The Bee Movie, he received a nomination for an Art Department Guild Award. Ramsey recently created the Webslingers multimedia interactive attraction as well as the Avenger's Campus for Disney's California Adventure. His earlier design, the Animation Pavilion at DCA, was recognised with a THEA award, which is the Oscar of themed entertainment. His contributions to several global attractions and events include the first winterlit cityscape in Santa Monica, the Don Quixote attraction in Japan, and the Royal Saudi Wedding in Riyadh. He has continued to be involved in theatre throughout the years, having designed national tours of Martina McBride's Christmas in addition to award-winning regional theatre sets from California to New York.
