Below The Line - Safety On Set (with Dave Chameides)
Episode 67
lundi 19 juin 2023 • Duration 37:22
This week we are joined by friend of the pod, legendary steadiam operator, Dave Chameides, to talk about safety. Too often on this podcast we find ourselves discussing people being hurt or killed in situations that could have been avoided. In his extensive career, Dave has worked with the Local 600 Safety Committee to establish on-set safety guidelines and protocols that keep cast and crew safe. Join us for a discussion on what has been done, and the work that remains to be done to keep people safe while they make the films and TV shows we know and love.
Check out Dave's podcast, The Op, for more on the art of camera operating and cinematography.

Dune (1984)
Episode 66
lundi 12 juin 2023 • Duration 01:19:58
20,000 extras, 1,000 pounds of spaghetti, and 1 unexplainable pug! This week, Chris & Lizzie fold space to learn how Dune birthed Alien, David Lynch died the slow death, and Patrick Stewart destroyed Sting’s ego (accidentally!).
*CORRECTIONS:
*Chris referred to the studio space in Mexico City as the largest in "South America" which is obviously wrong because Mexico City is in North America. He meant that it was the largest in the Southern Hemisphere (at the time).
