How many of you actually know what an assistant director does on set? It’s always surprising to see the number of people in our business that can’t really answer that question. Well on today's show, host Mike Pecci is determined to shed some light on one of the most important jobs in film, television, music videos and commercials. The leader of the entire crew, the voice that gets us through the day, the assistant director!

Our guest today is longtime collaborator Vladimir Minuty – Assistant director, storyboard artist, and director. In this episode the two old friends talk about the techniques used to organize and run a film set, how to translate a directors vision, learning about a different path into the business for young students and working with great filmmakers like Errol Morris.

Listening to these two, it’s obvious that they have had a blast working together and it’s fun to spend about an hour inside their inner circle.
