“The relationship with actor and director is probably closer to theater, in that, when we record the dialogue, there is very little in the way of the creative collaboration - no cameras, lighting or even locations. Then, once we record, the post process is very similar to the post flow in filmmaking - editing, sound design, mixing, etc. At the end of the day, it's all about storytelling and honing in on a tone by developing a rhythm and structure that suits the storytelling.” WayLittlesEndsActorsProcessSoundCreativeRecordsDesignDirectorsFlowTheaterCamerasStructureDialogueStorytellingSuitsRhythmDevelopingPostsToneThe End Of The DayEtcCollaborationFilmmakingEditingLocationLightingMixingHoningSound DesignCreative Collaboration Author:Glenn McQuaid
“First and foremost, my hats off to our directors and camera department. That is something I will miss after Longmire. I can't imagine working on another show that looks like this. We'll get the whole crew out on location and have a hundred people standing around, waiting for about 40 minutes, so that sun is just a little bit further in the sky and the light is hitting the cloud, in the perfect way.” PeopleWayFirstsLooksLittlesI CanWholeShowsLightBitsWaitingPerfectSunImagineSkyMinutesMissingDirectorsLittle BitHundredStandingCamerasCloudsDepartmentHatsHittingLocationCrewHats Off Author:Bailey Chase

“It's just that the nature of being a director is being incredibly overwhelmed with getting the shots right, dealing with the locations, and then there's a two-year-old in the scene, and all that stuff - you know, there's a lot of kids in scenes.” KnowsYearsTwoKidsStuffSceneDirectorsShotsTwo YearsLocationOverwhelmedTwo Year Olds Author:Jay Duplass
“One of the first decisions I made, as the director of "Hide and Seek," was that our film would be silent and use underscoring of original music that I was planning on composing. The decision was mostly predicated on knowing how time consuming the editing of dialogue can be and given the various locations we shot in, I didn't want to worry about having to mix room tones in such a short amount of time.” WantFirstsMadeUseWould BeFilmGivenDecisionRoomsWorryKnowingAmountDirectorsShotsOriginalsSilentVariousPlanningDialogueToneEditingLocationConsumingComposingTime ConsumingHide And SeekOriginal Music Author:Garth Kravits
