    The world of independent film lost a trailblazer as well, as director and producer Gary Winick died at the age of 49. Winick was one of the founders of InDigEnt, a low-budget digital production shingle that helped bring films like Richard Linklater‘s “Tape,” Ethan Hawke‘s “Chelsea Walls,” Peter Hedges’ “Pieces Of April,” Wim Wenders’ “Land Of Plenty” and Steve Buscemi‘s “Lonesome Jim” to the big screen. As for his own directing career, Winick also started out in the indie world and found big success with his 2002 effort “Tadpole” which sold to Miramax for $6 million and allowed him transition to studio productions—as improbable as they were—including “13 Going On 30,” “Charlotte’s Web” and last year’s “Letters To Juliet.” Winick will always be remembered for being one of the pioneers of digital filmmaking and was a very well regarded figure in both the indie and Hollywood realms.

    RIP
