DGA Director Development Initiative presents a virtual lab:
Back to Basics: A Director's Guide
to Working with an Assistant Director
Television Directors and Assistant Directors work closely together on set. As a
guest Director working across different shows, it is important to have a clear
understanding of what the role of an Assistant Director is and to have expectations
for what the working partnership with an Assistant Director should look like.
In this lab, the panelists will highlight Assistant Directors' roles and responsibilities,
share insight and examples for when Directors should go to their Assistant Director
for support, and discuss what Directors should know about what their rights are when
selecting their Assistant Directors.
Panelists will be listed on www.dga.org closer to the date of this event.
The DDI Labs focus on education and career development for members interested in episodic television and is designed to provide current
information on the Director's craft delivered by experienced Episodic Television Directors.
