In The News: Department of Film

In 2012, as head of physical production for Summit Entertainment, Andi Isaacs retired from Hollywood. With 30 years and many major projects, from Scent of a Woman to The Twilight Saga under her belt, she was ready “to fall in love with something else,” Isaacs says. She did film industry consulting, a lot of volunteering, and started an MS in counseling before finding that “something else”: teaching film to young adults. She says this age group “has my heart,” because “they’re struggling and need encouragement … (but also) they’re resilient and smart and have so much to offer.” Due to her particular expertise, Isaacs’ arrival at UNLV Film this school year represents a shift in the department’s academic approach. She sat down with Desert Companion in her movie paraphernalia-trimmed office recently to explain.
