Behind the camera
1people
One idea
Every show starts as one person with a notebook.
Eight editors
Then a team of 5–8 editors to shape the story.
Fifteen teammates
Then a project team of 10–15 to build the world.
A hundred on set
Then 50–100 people on set, and someone has to run the room.
I don’t just design the look — I run the room that makes it.
That’s a wrap!
…for now. Let’s make the next episode together.
