Tatyana and I go way back. We have worked through the ages, literally with iconic brands on various degrees of production.

We'll talk about our past and what we are up to now including how studios use marketing to push their movies into the public realm.

In this episode, I talk about my three degrees of separation from a career in filmmaking, how I became a gaffer, and my journey in lighting projects.

This episode, we break down some of Derek's favorite Oners shots and talk about what works and what doesn't.

In the process of filmmaking, there is always a person who checks to ensure production is still on budget, the time is being kept, the schedule is up-to-date and the actors are on set. This crew member helps the director stay on track and can always draw his attention back to the goals to ensure minimal chaos in filmmaking. They are one of the heroes of filming, but their roles are usually neglected. Now, the question is,Is this role important?
