Release Date: 2024-07-25
From the early stages of script writing to the final cut, We Have Some Notes... provides a detailed overview of the script editing and development process, emphasising the impact of critical feedback, or 'notes', in the creation of successful films and television shows. Through interviews with leading industry practitioners, including Lynne Ramsay, Russell T Davies, Sally Wainwright, Edgar Wright, Lone Scherfig, Ben Wheatley and Simon Beaufoy, Venetia Hawkes explores the writer, director and note-giver relationship. The interviewees discuss the most productive and harmonious ways to give and receive feedback, and the role notes play in a fruitful creative process. Respected 'note-givers', such as Tessa Ross, Eva Yates and Pippa Harris, provide advice on nurturing successful development relationships. Inter-chapter sections pose key questions, such as "What's one thing never to do if you're giving notes?" and "How do you deal with rejection or critical notes?" Providing illuminating, practical guidance on ways of working successfully with notes, for both writers and directors. With its wealth of first-hand reflections, expert advice, and historical context, We Have Some Notes... is a vital read for students, industry professionals, and anyone interested in the making of acclaimed films and television series.
The Gibbons

It is a great honor to be asked to introduce this exciting new volume, having been heavily involved in the first comprehensive synthesis in the early 1980s. Gibbons are the most enthralling of primates. On the one hand, they are the most appealing animals, with their upright posture and body shape, facial markings, dramatic arm-swinging locomotion and suspensory postures, and devastating duets; on the other hand, the small apes are the most diverse, hence biologically valuable and informative, of our closest relatives. It is hard for me to believe that it is 40 years to the month since I first set foot on the Malay Peninsula to start my doctoral study of the siamang. I am very proud to have followed in the footsteps of the great pioneer of primate field study, Clarence Ray Carpenter (CR or Ray, who I was fortunate to meet twice, in Pennsylvania and in Zurich), first in Central America (in 1967) and then in Southeast Asia. It is 75 years since he studied howler monkeys on Barro Colorado Island in the Panama Canal Zone. It is 70 years since he studied the white-handed gibbon in Thailand.
