I've worked for Taylor on the four seasons of Yellowstone, as well as on Wind River. A er reading and breaking down the 10 episodes and reviewing the shooting schedule, I realized we could be shooting any of the scenes from the 10 episodes on any given day by shooting two main units at a time. I knew that this was episodic and that we didn't have the luxury of showing passage of time like a feature, especially with such a large cast. I needed to get the point across with the cast as well, that their ideas and mine needed to come together so that the story could be told in the simplest and strongest way possible. Working under COVID conditions and being tested every day, safety and sanitation was a must.
