The Only Thing I Take To Set Directing Commercials.
23 november 2019 · 8 min
If I've planned my shoot well and communicated with the team properly, I only need my storyboards on set. They're covered with scribbled jokes, notes and alternate lines I want to try. On set, I'll magically think of the ad-libs I've written. By planning, it allows for the on-set magic to flourish. So, yes I go to work with a simple piece of paper in my pocket. Printed, not on the phone. Lees meer
Go see "Queen & Slim" and "Ford vs. Ferrari"... listen why.
Happy Thanksgiving,

19 juli 2019 · 1 uur 26 min
Writer/Director/Producer Michael Patrick Jann returns to the podcast (check out his 2014 episode here) to explain what a Producing Director does, how he pitches to get episodic assignments and so much more.
