They need to know what can be achieved in any given space both aesthetically and logistically. It's important to give the creatives all the angles we can when scouting. Plans change so frequently, you always need to know what you can do in each location. PM: What are your tools of the trade? What car or tech gadget or tool can't you live without? MF: My car always ends up being my office away from home so I like to try and get a roomie rental. Without it, I'm on the hunt for a cafe where I'm smushed between people drinking overpriced lattes. My phone-charging brick, too. While on set, we are so glued to our phones. I commonly go through a fully charged phone with a charged battery case and will end up needing a charge of both throughout the day. My MacBook, Nikon DSLR and pocket notepad are never far from my grasp either. PM: What made you decide to join the LMGI? MF: My friend, LMGI Board member Eric Klein, really helped me, as well as a number of others out on the East Coast, get involved with the LMGI. filmplacertahoe.com Find out more!
