Today, on the latest episode of the Team Deakins Podcast, production designer Rick Carter (THE FABELMANS, AVATAR, MUNICH) speaks us to about production design and filmmaking. We consider the idea of locations “auditioning” to be in the movies and how Rick scouts locations with his directors. Rick reveals the brainstorming sessions that took place as the vision for STAR WARS: EPISODE VII took (and lost) shape, and we learn how Rick tries to get into the head of a director. Rick also reflects on the podcast itself—it being an archive of filmmakers of a certain epoch of filmmaking—and eagerly adds his own voice to its chorus. ⁠ ⁠ We hope you enjoy listening!⁠ -⁠ Recommended Viewing: MUNICH⁠ -⁠ This episode is sponsored by Aputure⁠ Instagram: aputure.lighting⁠ -⁠ #teamdeakins #rogerdeakins #rogeradeakins #sirRoger #bywaysBook #jamesellisdeakins #teamdeakinspodcast #rickCarter #productiondesigner #productiondesign #stillPhotography #visualarts
