When Ryan Coogler needed someone to track every detail on SINNERS – including Michael B. Jordan playing twin brothers Smoke and Stack – he called Steve Gehrke, the veteran script supervisor and longtime collaborator of Christopher Nolan. With credits that span MEMENTO, INCEPTION, THE DARK NIGHT, OPPENHEIMER, and the upcoming THE ODYSSEY, Gehrke shares what a Nolan set is like, how he keeps time straight in “Chris Nolan world,” meeting Coogler and working on SINNERS, what a scripty actually does, and why he still takes notes with an old school pencil.Learn more and read the transcript at ProximityMedia.comShop our Prox Recs at Bookshop.orgWatch/Listen to IN PROXIMITY on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, SpotifyFollow Proximity Media on Instagram, TikTok, ProximityMedia.com(00:00) Meeting Christopher Nolan in 1989 for MEMENTO(02:09) Voice Memo from producer Emma Thomas(04:06) Why Steve “doesn’t care” about the words in a script(05:10) Time and continuity in Chris Nolan world and MEMENTO(06:57) “Every movie that we do makes you think”: INCEPTION, DUNKIRK(07:55) Meeting Christopher Nolan (continued) and getting hired on the spot(08:20) Process for collaborating with Nolan as a script supervisor(09:42) THE ODYSSEY and the 25-year relationship(11:14) What a Nolan set is like(12:10) Preparing for a film, reading TENET(14:04) Breaking down a nonlinear script and making “paper dolls”(17:22) Story order vs. script order(18:44) Why the script supervisor is the on-set editor and keeping track of kisses(21:48) Continuity mental list, issues, eyelines(24:29) Meeting Ryan Coogler and working on SINNERS(28:11) Steve’s script supervisor toolkit and keeping it old school(30:46) The Script Supervising Process: Smoke & Stack Scene(35:03) The squiggles(35:33) How Steve learned the job(37:11) Prox RecsIN PROXIMITY IS A PRODUCTION OF PROXIMITY MEDIAHost, Director, Producer: Paola MardoExecutive Producers: Ryan Coogler, Zinzi Coogler, Sev OhanianTheme Song and Additional Music: Ludwig GöranssonCo-Director and Director of Photography: Patrick EpinoSound Designer and Mix Engineer: Ken NanaEditors: Patrick Epino, Brittani Brown, Ken Nana, A.J.
