TV is nothing without 𝙒𝙧𝙞𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙨 & 𝘼𝙘𝙩𝙤𝙧𝙨. If there’s one thing this strike has exposed, it’s just how much their talent and sacrifices have been undervalued. As former DGA pres. @pkcbarclay once put it, in the world of TV we directors are “𝘪𝘯𝘷𝘪𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘮𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘢 𝘮𝘦𝘢𝘭 𝘪𝘯 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘦𝘭𝘴𝘦’𝘴 𝘬𝘪𝘵𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘦𝘭𝘴𝘦’𝘴 𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘳𝘦𝘥𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘴.” We can bring our favorite spice, but ultimately we’re always a guest in another person’s house. Well, those houses are built none more so than by the tireless work of the casts and scribes who pour their lives into creating the best show possible, episode after episode, season after season. So in appreciation to the ones who make the real magic happen, I wanted to share some of my favorite scenes I had the (comparatively easy) job of directing in the marvelous kitchen that is @cwsupermanandlois. Not the flashy action and VFX sequences (which are of course tons of fun to shoot) but the scenes where it’s just the simplicity of great actors and great words telling the story. That’s honestly what I love most about the show — the moments these canonic characters feel grounded and human to the point we can see ourselves in them. For someone like me, who grew up inhaling @superman comics and lore, the value of real people playing these beloved personas can never be replicated by AI. Nor could it ever match the meticulous story design and artistry of writer/showrunner @chipeyt and all the other brilliant minds/writers who make the series what it is (@gberlanti @fletcher4stunts @kriskorzec @rinamimoun55 & so many more). These people love, live and breathe these characters in ways no machine ever could. And that’s why when this strike ends, I hope it’s because they finally got the deal they deserve. #StrikeSolidarity #WGAstrong #SAGstrong Swipe <——— for more scenes starring the unique, uncloneable talents of @tylerhoechlin @bitsietulloch @echriqui @erikvaldez @woleparks @alexgarfin @indenavarrette @taylerbbuck @ryakihlstedt @adamraynerofficial #DylanWalsh #JordanElsass
