Early life and career

Soderbergh was born in Atlanta, Georgia, the son of Mary Ann (née Bernard) and Peter Andrew Soderbergh, who was a university administrator and educator. [1] He has Swedish ancestry (the family's original surname in Swedish, Söderberg, was changed to Soderbergh when they immigrated to the United States).

Swedish ( is a North Germanic language spoken by more than nine million people predominantly in Sweden and parts of Finland, especially along the When he was a child, his family moved from Atlanta to Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where his father became Dean of Education at Louisiana State University (LSU). Baton Rouge (French Bâton-Rouge ˌbætən ˈruːdʒ in English, and in French) is the capital city of Louisiana. Louisiana State University and Agricultural and Mechanical College, generally known as Louisiana State University or LSU, is a public, Coeducational There he discovered filmmaking as a teenager, directing short Super 8 mm films with equipment borrowed from LSU students.

His primary high school education was at Louisiana State University Laboratory School, a K-12 school that is directed by the University. Louisiana State University Laboratory School ( U-High) is a Laboratory school under the Louisiana State University College of Education While still taking classes there around the age of fifteen, Soderbergh enrolled in the university's film animation class and began making short 16 mm films with secondhand equipment. [3]

Rather than attending LSU, Soderbergh tried his luck in Hollywood after graduating from high school; he worked as a game show scorer and cue card holder to make ends meet, and eventually found work as a freelance film editor. [4] His big break came when he directed the Grammy-nominated concert video 90125 Live for the rock band Yes in 1985. The Grammy Awards (originally called the Gramophone Awards)—or Grammys —are presented annually by the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences Yes are an English Progressive rock band that formed in London in 1968.

Breakthrough: sex, lies, and videotape

It wasn't until Soderbergh came back to Baton Rouge that he conceived the idea for sex, lies, and videotape (1989), which he wrote in eight days. Sex Lies and Videotape (the film's publicity materials always display the title in Lowercase letters is a 1989 Independent film that Events Actress Kim Basinger and her brother Mick purchase Braselton Georgia for $20 million [6] The independent film won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival, became a worldwide commercial success and greatly contributed to the 1990s independent film revolution.

The year 2002 in film involved some significant events The first significant releases of sequels took place between Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, In the same year, Soderbergh made Full Frontal which was shot mostly on digital video in an improvisional style that deliberately blurred the line between which actors were playing characters and which were playing fictionized versions of themselves.

HDNet is a general interest Television channel in the United States, broadcasting exclusively in high-definition format and available via cable DVD (also known as " Digital Versatile Disc " or " Digital Video Disc " - see Etymology)is Industry heads were reportedly watching how the film performed, as its unusual release schedule could have implications for future feature films. [13][14] Theater-owners, who at the time had been suffering from dropping attendance rates, did not welcome so-called "day-and-date" movies. [15] National Association of Theatre Owners president and CEO John Fithian indirectly called the film's release model "the biggest threat to the viability of the cinema industry today. "[16] Soderbergh's response to such criticism: "I don't think it's going to destroy the movie-going experience any more than the ability to get takeout has destroyed the restaurant business. " The film did poor business both at the box office and on the home video market. [17] Nevertheless, Soderbergh is on contract to deliver five more day-and-date movies. In fall of 2006 he contributed a mini-essay on hotel pornography, along with an accompanying series of long-exposure photographs, to Anthem magazine's November/December issue.

Directorial style and collaborations with actors

"I've always gotten along with them," says Soderbergh of actors, "I try and make sure they're OK, and when they're in the zone, I leave them alone. I don't get in their way.

Production

Soderbergh often utilizes Cliff Martinez to construct/compose the soundtracks to his movies, and when not cutting his own films, he relies on editor Stephen Mirrione. Cliff Martinez (born February 5, 1954) is an American film score composer and former drummer for Captain Beefheart, The Dickies, The Weirdos Stephen Mirrione (born February 17 1969 in Santa Clara County California) is an American Film editor.

Aesthetics

Soderbergh has made big-budget Hollywood films as well as art-house independent films; works with above-the-title movie stars and unknowns; directs adaptations and original material, both of which written by himself as well as other screenwriters. His versatility is also apparent with the genres which he chooses to film and his trades as a filmmaker behind the scenes. Traffic screenwriter and Syriana director Stephen Gaghan named Soderbergh "the Michael Jordan of filmmaking" for his ability to assume so many distinct roles in film production. Stephen Whorton Gaghan (born May 6, 1965 in Louisville Kentucky) is an Academy Award and Emmy Award -winning American Michael Jeffrey Jordan (born February 17 1963 is a retired American professional Basketball player and active businessman

His films are, in almost every instance, distinct in atmosphere and tone. And while he seems to be enamoured of dialogue, frequently sharp and hip, Soderbergh's incorporation of score and montage are equally prevalent in his story-telling. Even his light-hearted affairs, such as Out of Sight and Ocean's 11, contain scenes where images and score are the dominant story-telling mechanisms, while films such as Solaris and Traffic are heavily layered in scenes absent of dialogue altogether. Cliff Martinez, a frequent collaborator with Soderbergh, composes many of the scores that provide Soderbergh with the thematic and sonic landscapes into which he inserts his characters.

But while Soderbergh's subject matter is highly varied, many of his films feature as a central theme the exploration of the act or moral consequences of lying. A lie (also called prevarication) is a type of Deception in the form of an untruthful statement especially with the intention to deceive others often with the further For example, the protagonists in two early films, King of the Hill and sex, lies, and videotape, are both pathological liars (one in training, one in recovery), while most of the characters in both Oceans films are con artists. King of the Hill is a 1993 film Steven Soderbergh 's third feature film and the second he directed from his own screenplay following his Sex Lies and Videotape (the film's publicity materials always display the title in Lowercase letters is a 1989 Independent film that Directing Spalding Gray in Gray's Anatomy after King of the Hill was a striking, related transition to a monologue by Gray, an actor who often commented that he was unable to "make anything up". Spalding Rockwell Gray ( June 5, 1941 &ndash ca January 10, 2004) was an American Actor, Screenwriter, Gray's Anatomy is an 80-minute motion picture directed by Steven Soderbergh in 1996 involving a dramatized monologue by actor/writer Spalding Full Frontal is another film in this thread, where seemingly the fundamental dishonesty of the entire filmmaking process is exposed. Full Frontal is a 2002 film by Steven Soderbergh, about a day in the life of people in Hollywood. More distantly, Soderbergh's interest in Cockney rhyming slang, as seen in The Limey and the Oceans films, may be seen as part of this theme, based on the conjectured origin of Cockney rhyming slang as a language game. Rhyming slang is a form of Slang in which a word is replaced either by another word or phrase that rhymes with it or by the first word of such a phrase in which The Limey ( 1999) is an American revenge Neo-noir Crime film, directed by Steven Soderbergh and written by Lem Dobbs A language game (also called secret language or ludling) is a system of manipulating spoken words to render them incomprehensible to the untrained ear

Contrary to Soderbergh being dubbed a stylistic chameleon by Anne Thompson of Premiere Magazine, Drew Morton has extensively researched Soderbergh's consistent aesthetic ties to the French New Wave.

Personal life

Soderbergh is married to writer/journalist (and E! Entertainment Television anchor) Jules Asner. Jules Asner (born February 14, 1968) is an American Television personality Writer, and former fashion model. He often credits Asner for inspiring his female characters. [26]
