- Rob Nilsson (b. October 29, 1939) is a moviemaker. He has attended the Fargo Film Festival a number of times, and was the recipient of the Ted M. Larson Award. The following notes about Nilsson were included in the program of the 2001 Fargo Film Festival: Rob Nilsson, a San Francisco-based director, won the Prix de la Camera d'Or (with John Hanson) at Cannes for Northern Lights and the Grand Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival for Heat and Sunlight. He is the first American film director to have won both awards. Nilsson is a pioneer in the techniques of video to film transfer which led to today's digital revolution. In 1985, Signal 7 was the first small format video feature to be blown up to film and distributed around the world. Chalk, his first feature with the Tenderloin Action Group, now the Tenderloin Ygroup, an acting workshop for homeless and inner city San Franciscans, is now in theatrical distribution around the country and recently streamed live over the Internet on ifilm.net. His 9 @ Night feature film package featuring actors from the Ygroup currently has three feature films in post-production. The production of his latest work, Scheme, is being featured on ifilm.net where rehearsals and workshop sessions are posted weekly. Nilsson has a regular editorial column on both ifilm.net and Res magazine. Nilsson recently directed A Town Has Turned to Dust, a feature film for television, from a script by Rod Serling, and has just completed a screenplay for Minneapolis producer John Stout and director Dean Hyers. Nilsson is the creator of Direct Action Cinema (DAC), a system designed to allow actors and technicians high freedom and deep responsibility to create memorable cinema. Nilsson describes this as "a dynamic jazz ensemble of actors, camera, sound, directors and editors which creates and interprets together, seeking the unexpected, the extraordinary, the miracles only a well-prepared combo can play..."
