Can’t learn this stuff many places!
Love this podcast. David interviews folks who live and breathe production and the insights they share are fantastic. If you’re wanting to learn tips and tricks of the industry, or are curious about what life on a film set is like, this is the podcast for you!
Great Interview
Just listened to the Marlowe Taylor episode and loved it! I found the interview engaging and informative - understandable for those who are in the industry and also those who just want to learn more about it.
Great Information
What I like about this first episode is how much real information it gives about the film industry. Who knew a Key Grip was so important to the film process. Wells Smith says so many little gems that I wanted to keep writing down to remember for the next film set I am on. Excited to listen to more.
