Feel like we don't hear so much about television directors - for obvious reasons, no need to explain them, but you know, figured it'd be interesting to get into to see if anyone did have any particular stand out favourites.
Personally very fond of a lot of Rachel Talalay's stuff - I think what I find impressive about her work is that you can always tell its her, from more nominal prestige stuff like Sherlock to things like Riverdale, which are very much opposites of one another in terms of time and resources and money afforded to directors.
What about everyone else?
How do they maintain the same style of cinematography, acting, and sets with different directors? What do the different directors bring to the table?
In films a director is the one who is considered to be most important decision maker in regards to how a final product is made while in TV shows it is usually the showrunner or the head writer who makes the final decisions. Which TV shows flip that conventional philosophy?
Weird questions I know but stay with me, I just woke up and this came to my head. I believe every director is a free soul trying to express something genuine. But I don't think pornographic directors can ever do that with all the shitty acting, lighting etc. Don't they get frustrated? I know I would have. I got easily annoyed when an actor sucked and I couldn't do anything to make him not suck. These directors must have even worse. So could any director from pornographic industry make it to other media industry?
