    Here is her original description from the original post of her video.
    "I thought I'd share a behind the scenes view of this year's Tony Awards from Radio City Music Hall. Working for CBS Network, I've had the privilege of sitting in the broadcast truck with some of the most talented, world class directors. Glenn Weiss is one of the best. Glenn's direction of the last few minutes of the Tony's opening number was unlike anything I've seen in the 13 years I've been with CBS. Stay tuned until the 00:52 mark - He was on FIRE! PS: Glenn was a little busy and unable to give me camera direction, thus the video is shot in portrait mode (vertically) rather than horizontally. I know, I know. You can also follow me on twitter or instagram @rothjodi for the occasional witty comment and behind the scenes photos."

      “Go get em” is one of the best things you can hear from a director as a camera op.

    Thank you forever for putting up how they created one of the most memorable, Emmy winning production numbers in American TV. Are there any other recordings of rehearsals or camera blocking or anything else from this production? Who decided to record the control room? Please add links here. The moment Spider man puffed his chest... I wish Glenn would explain how he saw/caught so many single second moments from 9 (?) cameras. Amazing. Never forget L-M M wrote that song for NPH.

      I think he caught them because he was standing up. Could see more detail on those monitors. He was calling for more star reactions at the end there too.
      Unscripted moments like that are hard.
      Incredible quick work and eye. Biggest props to the camera crew finding those shots too.

      They're the numbers assigned to each camera e.g. 9 = The wide shot looking toward the audience, 10 = the wide shot looking onto the stage etc.

      No because you need to concentrate on creativity and you still need to call out the numbers anyway to tell the camera operators they are going to be put on air

    Sometimes he has to say "take" before the feed switches, and sometimes he doesn't. Why?

    • @Mediaright
      @Mediaright Před rokem +1

      He only doesn’t say “take” after the song when they’re direct-cutting to people instantly to get someone’s reaction. Usually you call a shot so the camera gets ready, then take the shot. In that moment, you don’t have time for that.

    Now get him to vision mix as well as direct. I've seen technical directors just as good as this, and they're physically doing more than this guy. He's good at what he does though.

    • @Mediaright
      @Mediaright Před rokem +1

      No need to be defensive about it. TDs are great. But for a production this big, having a dedicated director allows each to focus solely on one task, which helps here.

  • @pilotems6057
    @pilotems6057 Před rokem +1

    Seeing the video with the track this is the epitome of a director using quick cuts and just randomly calling cameras. Its garbage.

    This guy is beyond awful, and the snapping of fingers is dehumanizing to anyone working with him. Prayers to the Vision Mixer.

    • @JampaB
      @JampaB Před 2 lety +2

      Snapping of the fingers doesn't bother me personally. I have been mixing for some time and some directors who I have worked tend to have a some physical "tell" for moments when they want to cut to the next take.

    • @Mediaright
      @Mediaright Před rokem +2

      He’s likely worked with all these guys before. There’s only a small set of guys who work at this level.

  • @paulwalker6297
    @paulwalker6297 Před 4 lety +4

    Who the Hell would put up with ANY TV director ranting, raving, & clicking his fingers at the Vision Mixer (called a Technical Director in the USA) for the next camera shot ? This sort of behaviour and attitude is absolutely and totally unnecessary in any sort of professional TV situation. It's also very distracting & irritating to the camera operators who do not need a lunatic screaming instructions in their ears ! It might look impressive to the casual observer, but as a UK Vision Mixer // Technical Director myself, there's no way I'd work alongside a guy like this, irrespective of whether or not he'd won an award for directing ! He's obviously NOT working to scripted camera shots and is "calling-it" as he sees it, but he has NO need to be standing up to direct, and even less to be pointing at TVs in the monitor stack. It's all unnecessary and verging on attention seeking behaviour 😟
