By Jen Farris<\/strong><\/p>\n

I recently caught up with Supervising Manager, Benjamin Hendriks, after his return from the Cannes Film Festival\u2019s premiere of Occupied City<\/em>, a Steve McQueen-directed documentary in which he location managed.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Benjamin. How are you doing? First, welcome to LMGI! It\u2019s nice to have you in our membership representing the Netherlands. What lead you to The Location Managers Guild International?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Last year I got happily surprised with a nomination for my work on ATLANTA <\/em>Season 3. I had heard of the LMGI, but never considered becoming a member because I thought it wouldn\u2019t add much to my work in the Netherlands, but I went to LA to attend the 9th Annual LMGI Awards ceremony and spoke to many other location professionals. I decided, then, to join the LMGI and it turned out to be a very nice way to stay in touch with colleagues and learn more about the job. The Netherlands is very small, so it is very nice to exchange war stories from people from all over the world and seeing the hard work of location professionals being recognized. As far as I know I\u2019m the only Dutch LMGI member. This interests me to bring the LMGI under the attention of colleagues and perhaps help elevate our profession by expanding the network.<\/p>\n

Expanding our outreach into The Netherlands is an amazing opportunity. Location professionals around the world share so many common threads. I must also say that it was a pleasure meeting you in Los Angeles, California during the nomination process of ATLANTA<\/em> Season 3. Working as a location scout on that series was amazing, and it was an honor to texturally match the locations you initiated in Amsterdam with locations in Atlanta, GA after the characters transitioned into the USA. How did you come to be a location manager and supervising location manager?<\/strong><\/p>\n

For the past 5 or 6 years I\u2019ve mainly worked as a supervising location manager overseeing projects but have been a long-time location manager for many years now. In addition to ATLANTA <\/em>and Occupied City<\/em> I\u2019ve had the opportunity to work on the Dunkirk<\/em> feature directed by Academy Award nominated Christopher Nolan, and the TV Series, Modern Love Amsterdam. <\/em>I\u2019ve worked on both smaller Dutch projects and bigger American ones. I honestly like both. It remains a fun challenge to accommodate a crew of 300 with their trucks in the small streets of Amsterdam, but with small crews (Dutch crews tend to be around 40 \u2013 50 people) it can be very efficient to get things done quickly and professionally without losing precious time.<\/p>\n

My start in the business began back in the day, after my film studies in Antwerp, Belgium, I had to bridge a 4-month gap and decided to apply for a small job as a production coordinator for a Dutch police series. I believe it was around 2010. I got the job, was asked to be an assistant location manager afterwards, and after two projects as an assistant, I started as a location manager. I wasn\u2019t afraid to make the jump that quickly, and I have been working as a location manager ever since. As a location pro I would say: \u201cLet\u2019s all stay calm, put our heads together and solve this problem!\u201d.<\/p>\n

Leaps of faith are also the best way to leap! Clearly, early-on, someone saw something special in your work to ask you to transition in such an amazing capacity. By the way, I love that Europe has so many countries in a cluster. How is work life in Amsterdam, and do you ever get to work in neighboring countries? <\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019m based quite strategically. I live in a quiet neighborhood with my family in a city called Den Bosch but can be found in Amsterdam most of the time when filming. The Netherlands is a very small country and from my place it usually takes no more than 1-hour to the other big cities (or even parts of Belgium, Germany or Luxembourg).<\/p>\n

Our work can be very demanding at times, so every couple of years I decide to take a break from work for a few months to gain new insights and gain some fresh energy. Also\u2026to spend time with friends and family, of course, which I don\u2019t see too often while working. I think it\u2019s important to keep a good balance and not being lost in the job. But, at the same time, I like my work a lot, and when someone calls to discuss a new project, I always pick up and hear what they have to say. I often find it difficult to say no, as I’m always looking for a new challenge.<\/p>\n

Den Bosch looks like a quaint and lovely place. Does it spark creativity, and would you say that you have always been a creative person surrounded by creative work? <\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve not always been a creative person per se, but I\u2019ve always been fascinated by cinema and had a passion for it. \u00a0I remember watching Jurassic Park on the big screen (3 times) as a kid and being impressed with the power of cinema. When all my classmates in school were watching cartoons or teen movies, I was watching independent European films. I have always found all forms of cinema interesting, and this unconsciously shaped my choice to help making films eventually. And perhaps to let people experience the same as I have experienced as a kid watching dinosaurs come to life on the big screen.<\/p>\n

Children\u2019s passions are often a common thread in [our] adult lives.\u00a0 I have found that many of the LMGI location managers I have met over the years have stated they were curious children and love exploration and new adventures. How can like-minded pros stay in touch with you from afar? Are you on social media? <\/strong><\/p>\n

I don\u2019t have any social media actually, not even a website. I have my IMDb Pro page with contact info and my LMGI membership. If anyone would like to reach out, just text or mail me or give me a call! Or better; come to Amsterdam and I\u2019ll be happy to show you around town with a nice cup of coffee (or a cold beer)!<\/p>\n

LMGI member, Marcelo Martinez, is a location manager hailing from Buenos Aires, Argentina. He joined LMGI shortly after speaking on the \u201cLocations Behind the Oscars\u201d panel for his location management work on the film Argentina 1985<\/em> which was, at the time, nominated for Best International Feature Film at the 2023 Academy Awards.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis group photo was taken with me and my location team with director Santiago Mitre right after the emotional last take of the last day of shooting in Buenos Aires.\u2019 says Martinez. Yes, est\u00e1bamos muy cansados<\/em> (we were really tired).\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"Argentina 1985<\/em> was a special film for everyone who worked there. During the whole process I got to spend a lot of time in downtown Buenos Aires, especially in El Palacio de Justicia de la Naci\u00f3n (The Palace of Justice of the Nation), the building where the Argentinian Supreme Court works and where the trial shown in the film took place. It\u2019s a beautiful French Academicist building with lots of details.
\nThis photo was taken during one of our tech scouts there.<\/p>\n

It is obvious that Marcelo Martinez is passionate about storytelling, loves what he does and can push his imagination to find new ways to tell stories in spaces already traveled.<\/p>\n

\u201cI love films, I always say that I started working in the movie Industry as a clerk in a cinema in 1999. I went to film school and thought that the best way to see a director work was by working in the AD team. When I started to get jobs as an apprentice I got bored really quickly, but then a Location Manager invited me to join his team as an apprentice and never looked back. Working in the locations department how I got to see a Director at work. Working in the locations department gave me not only the professional experience but also some of the life experience I lacked because of being locked in my room watching films!! \u00a0I always try to get jobs that allow me to explore places that, even if I scouted them before, I try to Infuse them with the feelings I received from the screenplay or the vision I got from the director or production designer (or both!).\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"He has had the pleasure of seeing vast terrains and surfaces in South America from high, low and everything in between. \u201cI live in Buenos Aires, and I usually work in the city. Last year, however, I got to scout the north of Argentina and visited Purmamarca, a village in the Jujuy province of northwest Argentina. It was one of the most inspiring places I\u2019ve scouted and is located 2,324 meters above sea level. Yes, you get headaches at first but it\u2019s a beautiful place to visit.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"Scouting in Uruguay led Martinez to something special to his heart \u2013 football (soccer). \u201cFootball is a very important thing for us. This photo was taken in the Estadio Centenario, a stadium in the Parque Batlle of Montevideo, while I was location scouting in Uruguay. It was in this stadium that the first FIFA world cup final was played in 1930 and is a temple for South American Football. This photo speaks a lot about who we are here in South America.\u201d<\/p>\n

In 2020 Marcelo Martinez became a founding member of APPLAA (Asocacio\u0301n De Productores y productoras de locaciones audiovisuales De Argentina), <\/strong>an association of location managers that unite to raise awareness of our work in the industry.

On Saturday May 6, 2023 from 12PM \u2013 4PM EST, LMGI, New York Production Alliance and Herc Rentals at Cinelease Studios Brooklyn joined forces to host a Familiarity Tour & Networking Event with mini golf, games and food at the newest Cinelease Studios to open at 1245 Grand Street Brooklyn, NY 11211. The family-friendly industry event introduced their brand-new Bushwick location, a much larger space than their previous Greenpoint location. After greeting us with delicious Mexican tapas, sliders, drinks and snacks, they cleverly took us through the space by having us play through mini golf courses constructed with various grip equipment and Herc Rentals gear. This clever presentation emphasized Cinelease\u2019s partnership with Herc Rentals, a company dedicated to production rentals ranging anywhere from booms, to lifts to AC\/heating units, and more!<\/p>\n

BUSINESS PARTNER COMMITTEE<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The LMGI Board of Directors formed a Business Partner Committee<\/strong>\u00a0with the purpose of uniting our valued, dynamic Business Partners around the globe. LMGI wants to encourage Business Partners a chance to participate with the Guild in customizable ways and to facilitate involvement in events where partners can network with valued clients \u2013 location professionals.<\/p>\n

For now, the committee will be meeting bi-monthly via ZOOM. Business Partners from around the globe gathered for our first zoom meeting held Thursday, June 8, 2023. Over time, the plan is to grow Business Partnerships in all LMGI Regions, with the understanding that the cornerstone of each Chapter\u2019s success is having Business Partners actively participating.<\/p>\n
