Welcome to The Open Slate! Ever sat through the credits and wondered why there needs to be a Second 2nd Assistant Director? Or what the Best Boy is supposed to be the best at? In this series, we sit down with working film industry professionals from across the departments for unvarnished, honest, practical conversations about how and why they joined the movie business, how they contribute day-to-day to the creation of cinema, and how they maintain their careers in a high-pressure, highly sought after field.
Our guest is no stranger to the podcast – two-time Rewinder (and friend of almost 20 years!) Aidan Dungait. A native of the north east of England, Aidan’s post-university career saw him learn the ropes as a camera assistant on everything from indie horror films, to Brit Comedy sex romps, to prestige TV dramas, and plenty in between. After relocating to Vancouver several years ago, he has reestablished himself as a focus puller on a raft of features and major studio television projects. He joins Gali and Patrick to discuss his life in film to date – his setbacks, successes, and what it is about movie-making that keeps him inspired.
