Gaffers are alchemists. Yea we said it! They are the people that use light to magically create the worlds and images that we see in the content we love. They bend, shape, and mold our emotions through the technical and precise art form of working with electricity.

In this episode of “We Love To See It,” @nat.majette, #ycurielm @leqsee & #JustynDavis share what it’s like to be a professional Gaffer and why #WomenGaffers should no longer be considered “ unicorns” and instead become the norm. taken in New York City by @thelightislit

If you don’t have sound, you have yourself a silent film!

If you think the Sound Mixer’s job is simply to press record, you’re wrong.

The Sound department sonically shapes the film. They make sure the levels, frequency, and signals are aligned to ensure crisp and quality sound during production.

#favsoundgirl, #SheldonYellowHair, @nokufika_mdanda &
@josephineobudo guide us through what it is that they actually do on set and why we need to see more underrepresented people shaping the narrative in the Sound Department. taken in New York City by @thelightislit

Proud to have produced this piece for AMC Networks & Toyota, exploring the dedication, the grit, and the incredible collaboration that drives independent filmmaking. Because at the end of the day, working together is always the best part of the job.

Run This Town for META captures the feeling of finding your moment — and reminds us we don’t have to do it alone. When the uphill moments come, we can lean on each other to carry us through.

This was one of those projects where what you see on screen mirrors what we felt behind the scenes: a group of women, hearts pounding, running together through the streets of Medellín, Colombia.
