ABOUT THE GUEST SPEAKER:

BILL MECHANIC:

Respected

industry veteran and independent producer, BILL MECHANIC, who was nominated for

an Academy AwardŒ¬ this year for “Hacksaw Ridge” (Best

Picture), has a formidable and enviable resume by any standards in Hollywood.

 A former studio head, Mechanic has greenlit and/or been involved with

some of the most iconic and critically-acclaimed films, created or broken many

industry records, generated billion dollar box office, and over 40 Oscar

nominations and two Oscar wins in the last two decades (“Cast

Away,” “Titanic,” “Independence Day,” “Entrapment,”

“Big Momma’s House,” “There’s Something About Mary,” “Star

Wars Trilogy Special Edition,” “Braveheart,” “Boys Don’t

Cry,” “Mrs. Doubtfire,” “Speed,” “Die Hard With A

Vengeance,” “The Full Monty,” “The X-Files,” “William

Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet,” “Broken Arrow,” “Courage

Under Fire,” “Soul Food,” “Waiting To Exhale”

to list a few).  Bill has also worked (and

continues to work) with some of the biggest “A List” stars in

Hollywood.

Through his company, Pandemonium

Films, Bill continues to produce high quality films with directors

such as Paul Verhoeven and David Fincher.

 Mechanic’s “Hacksaw Ridge,” based on a

script by Randall Wallace, Robert Schenkkan and

Andrew Knight, was directed by Mel Gibson

and starred Andrew Garfield, Sam Worthington, Vince Vaughn, Luke

Bracey, and Teresa Palmer.  He has

completed production on “The Moon and The

Sun” directed by Sean McNamara and

starring Pierce Brosnan; is Executive Producer for

“2:22,” with Paul

Currie directing and Teresa Palmer and

Mickael Huissman starring; and about to begin prep on

“Union Square,” a romantic comedy

with Ben Lewin directing; and “The

Divide,” a historical epic to star Gerard

Butler and William Hurt, from a script by

Mechanic, Werb & Colleary, and Christopher McQuarrie.

Through Pandemonium, he also produced

the Oscar-nominated “Coraline”

(directed by Henry Sellick) and “The

New World” (directed by Terence

Malick) as well as “Dark Water“

(directed by Walter Salles).  He co-produced the

multi-Emmy nominated “82nd Academy Awards“

with Adam Shankman.  In addition to Pandemonium,

Mechanic serves on the Academy’s Board of

Governors.

Prior to Pandemonium, Mechanic was

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Fox Filmed

Entertainment for seven years.  As Chairman and CEO,

Mechanic oversaw all operations of the studio including worldwide feature film

production, marketing and distribution activities, as well as all worldwide

operations for Fox Video, Fox Interactive, Licensing and Merchandising, and Fox

Music.

During Mechanic’s tenure at Fox,

Mechanic revitalized the comic book genre with X MEN, the

first successful adaptation in nearly a decade.  Under his reign, the

company produced such hit films as “Cast Away,” “Titanic,”

“Independence Day,” “Entrapment,” “Big Momma’s House,”

“What Lies Beneath,” “Men Of Honor,” “Never Been

Kissed,” “There’s Something About Mary,” “Star Wars Trilogy

Special Edition,” “Braveheart,” “Boys Don’t Cry,” “Quills,”

“Mrs. Doubtfire,” “Speed,” “True Lies,” “Die

Hard With A Vengeance,” “The Full Monty,” “Dr. Dolittle,”

“The X-Files,” “Me Myself And Irene,” “The Thin Red

Line,” “Ever After,” “William Shakespeare’s Romeo &

Juliet,” “Broken Arrow,” “Courage Under Fire,” “Soul

Food,” “Anastasia” and “Waiting To Exhale.”

Twentieth Century

Fox also released “Star Wars: Episode 1 The

Phantom Menace,” the new chapter in George Lucas’ epic

saga, in 1999.  Greenlit by Mechanic, but released after his departure

from Fox, were Baz Luhrmann’s “Moulin Rouge,”

Tim Burton‘s reinterpretation of “Planet

Of The Apes,” and Steven Spielberg’s “Minority

Report,” starring Tom Cruise, as

well as sequels to the franchise projects Mechanic had greenlit, most notably

the “X-Men” franchise.

Under Mechanic, Twentieth Century Fox

in 1998 was the number one studio in worldwide

box-office gross.  That same year, Fox Music produced

five of the top ten selling soundtracks:  “Titanic,”

“Hope Floats,” “Doctor Dolittle,” “Bulworth,”

and “Ally McBeal.”  In addition, Fox has

produced six of the top ten grossing movies of all time, and

six of the top ten selling live action videos – both domestically and

internationally – including the bestselling video in history, “Titanic.”

 For three years of Mechanic’s tenure, Fox produced the number one

grossing movies worldwide with “Die Hard With A Vengeance,” “Independence

Day,” and “Titanic,” shared the Best Picture

Oscar for two years (Braveheart and Titanic), and

won the Best Actress Award for “Boys Don’t

Cry.” In all, Fox earned 42 Oscar nominations and 2

Best Picture Oscars under Mechanic’s tenure.
