When we think of jobs in Hollywood behind the camera there's a standard list: Director, Producer, camera crew, casting, etc. The truth is that there are hundreds of roles that are required to make the films and television we love - and most of them are ones we've never heard of. One of those is Script Supervisor, and leading the charge to change the visibility and value assigned to this role is Caryn Ruby. Caryn has held a wide number of roles both in front of the camera, and behind the scenes after much soul-searching she decided on a "day job" as a Script Supervisor. Listening to her talk through the duties and responsibilities, the only response is "wow!!!". It's a LOT. Yet, they get so very little press. To help with that Caryn has recently launched an awesome new podcast: The Script Supervisor. This limited series podcast talks about the role, the craft, what happens when it's right, and what happens when it goes WRONG. Exciting answers include what did happen with that coffee cup on GOT???

Here's a bit more about Caryn:

An award-winning dark comedy writer, performer and professional Script Supervisor, Caryn Ruby has scripted alongside Oscar and Emmy award-winning crew on award-winning and groundbreaking films including both Women In Media Camaraderie initiative Grand Prize Winning Films "Charlie and the Hunt" (Cannes), and “Blood and Glory” (Tribeca) and Women In Film/Google’s short film lab selection, “Choices.” Additionally, she had the privilege of script supervising the American Society of Cinematographer’s Standard Evaluation Manual (StEM2) film “The Mission,” and was selected as one of 17 fellows for Blackmagic Collective’s Filmmaker Advancement Initiative. She just launched her original podcast, “Script Supervisors: Unsung Heroes of Film and TV” - a backstage pass to filmmaking from the rarely acknowledged, but incredibly important department head’s perspective, featuring over a dozen top script supervisors from across the USA.
