One missing detail in this is set decoration, it really adds more atmosphere to the shot. Not everyone will have the best set decorator(or will even have one) but they should consider adding or even subtracting props from the shot to add more flavor.

a lot of really great info here, reinforces that we really need to use our RGB Parade/Waveform monitors while shooting to avoid headaches later.

Wow, simply breathtaking at times!

Yes the industry is sexist to women, when you have such a low pool of women directors on a list with a "catch 22" style that requires you to have worked in order to be on the list but then not hiring women so they can fit that so called list. To such a degree that women on a higher ladder cant lend a hand because that person will be in competition with them, this would not be such an issue if the pool of women directors wasn't so small!

And people, this is not about "fitting some quota," its about being fair. How so? Because you cant find the "best person for the job" when someone is holding the door closed for the rest of the other gender to even be in the same consideration.

That's straight privilege thinking, its time we all become more aware of it.

Well, the problem with that logic is that for it to make sense, it would mean that being a woman and being a great director are mutually exclusive, which is nuts. The problem with asking this question is that the industry is not fair, so therefore one group is not even given the chance. Hence the point of pushing for more women, its not about "meeting some quota" its about being fair and giving hungry directors work.
