Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:03,045 --> 00:00:05,875
Dude, did you see when you could see
the laser in his helmet?
2
00:00:05,964 --> 00:00:07,224
-Yeah, look at that.
-(CHUCKLES)
3
00:00:07,299 --> 00:00:08,299
MAN: That's good.
4
00:00:08,383 --> 00:00:10,843
-Yeah.
-Amazing what we get excited about here.
5
00:00:10,928 --> 00:00:11,968
-Exactly.
-Look, a laser!
6
00:00:15,140 --> 00:00:16,140
(OVER SPEAKERS) Left.
7
00:00:17,309 --> 00:00:18,309
Right.
8
00:00:18,810 --> 00:00:20,810
(ALARMS BEEPING)
9
00:00:23,857 --> 00:00:27,277
I thought when the whole thing
is rumbling and it's going like this
10
00:00:27,361 --> 00:00:30,071
and back, like,
that's the intensity level we want.
11
00:00:30,155 --> 00:00:32,365
Everything has to build
as we're doing it here.
12
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:39,920
(OVER SPEAKERS) Look back at the kid.Kid, forward now.
13
00:00:49,633 --> 00:00:50,723
And let's cut.
14
00:00:50,801 --> 00:00:52,931
-MAN: Cut it!
-It's so hard.
15
00:00:53,011 --> 00:00:54,261
I mean, it's not wrong...
16
00:00:58,642 --> 00:01:01,902
One thing unifying us
is we all love Star Wars.
17
00:01:01,979 --> 00:01:03,809
-Right? That was a prerequisite.
-Yeah.
18
00:01:03,897 --> 00:01:07,027
But other than that, I don't know
that we all have anything else in common
19
00:01:07,109 --> 00:01:09,439
as far as how we came in to directing.
20
00:01:10,696 --> 00:01:14,776
But each and every one of you came in
and learned so quickly
21
00:01:14,867 --> 00:01:18,537
until you were actually pushing
the medium in a different way,
22
00:01:18,620 --> 00:01:22,540
and allowing us to create
the tools around what your needs were.
23
00:01:22,624 --> 00:01:24,084
And it was really fun for me.
24
00:01:24,167 --> 00:01:27,247
I've never been in this position
'cause I'm usually directing.
25
00:01:30,048 --> 00:01:31,258
(INAUDIBLE)
26
00:01:34,553 --> 00:01:35,643
BAZ IDOINE: On this project,
27
00:01:35,721 --> 00:01:38,931
it was interesting
working with many directors.
28
00:01:39,933 --> 00:01:43,733
Very lucky to work with Dave Filonito get a strong vision of how he wanted,
29
00:01:43,812 --> 00:01:45,612
and Jon Favreau wanted the show to go.
30
00:01:45,689 --> 00:01:50,609
And then it was really interesting workingwith Rick and Deb and Bryce and Taika,
31
00:01:50,694 --> 00:01:53,744
'cause they all brought different things
to the show and party.
32
00:01:53,822 --> 00:01:56,742
They all had different perspectivesof the same vision,
33
00:01:56,825 --> 00:01:59,575
and it was wonderful
to be able to execute that.
34
00:02:00,746 --> 00:02:01,786
Action.
35
00:02:04,333 --> 00:02:08,753
Jon Favreau explained like
we were kind of like this Dirty Dozen,
36
00:02:08,837 --> 00:02:12,217
Magnificent Seven type of crew
37
00:02:12,299 --> 00:02:15,259
that he wanted to put togetherto help tell these stories,
38
00:02:15,344 --> 00:02:18,684
and wanted the different voicesand personalities
39
00:02:18,764 --> 00:02:21,354
each of the filmmakerswere bringing to the table,
40
00:02:21,433 --> 00:02:25,063
and wanted to accentuate thatand bring that to the world of Star Wars.
41
00:02:29,066 --> 00:02:32,776
FILONI: Really, for me, you go fromnever doing anything in live-action
42
00:02:32,861 --> 00:02:35,241
and shooting a Star Wars anything,
43
00:02:35,322 --> 00:02:39,912
it's a very complex arrangementof ideas and reality
44
00:02:39,993 --> 00:02:42,623
and imagination running together,
45
00:02:42,704 --> 00:02:45,504
and I'm very fortunateto have Jon here as, like, a mentor
46
00:02:45,582 --> 00:02:48,842
for things that he knowsare hang-ups in live-action
47
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:53,049
or are things that are difficult,so he helps steer what I'm doing,
48
00:02:53,131 --> 00:02:56,431
and it's actually
a continuation of my education.
49
00:03:02,057 --> 00:03:05,597
It's more of a passerby-momentthrowaway. It's not like a focused...
50
00:03:05,686 --> 00:03:07,186
FAVREAU: Yeah.
FILONI: He walks through
51
00:03:07,271 --> 00:03:08,271
and then we sit on it,
52
00:03:08,355 --> 00:03:10,435
-and then we cut.
-It's like Apocalypse Now.
53
00:03:10,524 --> 00:03:13,114
It adds a little menace.
54
00:03:13,193 --> 00:03:14,533
It also gives some backstory.
55
00:03:14,611 --> 00:03:16,361
Remember when Threepio's head
gets blasted,
56
00:03:16,446 --> 00:03:19,066
and they all walk by, in Empire,
57
00:03:19,157 --> 00:03:22,287
and they pan over to it,
and they don't see it?
58
00:03:22,369 --> 00:03:25,079
No, I don't remember that.
It's a deep cut for me.
59
00:03:25,163 --> 00:03:26,293
(ALL LAUGH)
60
00:03:29,710 --> 00:03:33,090
I started in traditional
2D animation, all hand-drawn.
61
00:03:33,172 --> 00:03:36,132
I used to have hundreds
of drawings on the floor of my office
62
00:03:36,216 --> 00:03:37,966
that were not the good ones.
63
00:03:38,051 --> 00:03:40,801
My first job
was King of the Hill, actually.
64
00:03:40,888 --> 00:03:43,388
Drawing a bunch of Texansdrinking beer on a fence,
65
00:03:43,473 --> 00:03:45,393
which isn't what I went to art school for.
66
00:03:45,475 --> 00:03:46,475
(LAUGHTER)
67
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:48,480
It's harder to draw them
than people think.
68
00:03:49,938 --> 00:03:53,358
I worked for Disney in the TV division,
and then I worked on Airbender.
69
00:03:53,442 --> 00:03:55,862
The Last Airbender
at Nickelodeon was a super fun show,
70
00:03:55,944 --> 00:03:58,034
'cause very anime,and I love anime and action.
71
00:03:58,113 --> 00:04:00,573
And then George with Clone Wars.
72
00:04:00,657 --> 00:04:04,997
And that was really the big change for mebecause I'd never done CG before.
73
00:04:05,078 --> 00:04:07,618
When I got there, he said,
"We're not gonna do storyboards.
74
00:04:07,706 --> 00:04:09,246
"We're not gonna draw anything."
75
00:04:09,333 --> 00:04:11,883
-I'm like, "Okay, but that's what I do."
-(LAUGHTER)
76
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:15,300
So the one skill I had
was rendered largely useless.
77
00:04:15,380 --> 00:04:18,720
But it wasn't really,
because it's still in all the language
78
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:20,890
of making, you know, a film.
79
00:04:20,969 --> 00:04:23,679
I still sketch all the time,
even today for this stuff.
80
00:04:23,764 --> 00:04:27,234
But George taught me to think more
in terms of a camera and blocking
81
00:04:27,309 --> 00:04:31,149
and how to set up cameras
for a whole shoot and staging.
82
00:04:31,897 --> 00:04:35,527
So this language was kind of built in me
slowly over ten years,
83
00:04:35,609 --> 00:04:37,899
and George always talks
in terms of live-action.
84
00:04:37,986 --> 00:04:42,066
And so he really got me interested in,
well, maybe it's something I'd like to do.
85
00:04:42,157 --> 00:04:44,237
That's an interesting story
of how you guys met,
86
00:04:44,326 --> 00:04:45,986
or how you got the job, I should say.
87
00:04:46,078 --> 00:04:48,998
Oh, yeah, I got the job as almost a...
I almost didn't get the job,
88
00:04:49,081 --> 00:04:51,171
because I thought it was a practical joke.
89
00:04:51,250 --> 00:04:54,550
I was working at Nickelodeon, and somebody
called from Lucasfilm Animation,
90
00:04:54,628 --> 00:04:56,588
and I'm like,
"There is no Lucasfilm Animation."
91
00:04:56,672 --> 00:04:59,092
I thought I'd been excited
about Revenge of the Sith
92
00:04:59,174 --> 00:05:00,884
coming out and talked about it a lot,
93
00:05:00,968 --> 00:05:02,718
that the guys from SpongeBob were just
94
00:05:02,803 --> 00:05:06,813
busting my chops over Star Wars.
I thought it was a prank call.
95
00:05:06,890 --> 00:05:11,400
It was this producer who I'd never
heard of from "Lucasfilm Animation,"
96
00:05:11,478 --> 00:05:13,558
and they're doing the "Clone Wars,"
and I go, yeah.
97
00:05:13,647 --> 00:05:15,517
And I'm being like, all...
98
00:05:15,607 --> 00:05:18,987
You get so tired of being picked on.
99
00:05:19,069 --> 00:05:20,239
(ALL LAUGHING)
100
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,570
And you're just like, "This is
the SpongeBob guys. I know it is."
101
00:05:23,657 --> 00:05:25,277
I'm like, "Oh, you're making..."
102
00:05:25,367 --> 00:05:27,367
-(MOCKINGLY) "Uh, yeah, we're doing a..."
-Yeah.
103
00:05:27,452 --> 00:05:29,712
And I said, "Oh, so you're
making Clone Wars."
104
00:05:29,788 --> 00:05:31,668
"But you already did that, right?"
105
00:05:31,748 --> 00:05:33,998
-I'm talking like that.
-FAVREAU: You're just talking...
106
00:05:34,084 --> 00:05:35,594
FILONI: And getting to Clone Wars.
107
00:05:35,669 --> 00:05:37,959
She said, "Well, this is gonna be
a computer animation,
108
00:05:38,046 --> 00:05:39,836
"you know, and a whole new series."
109
00:05:39,923 --> 00:05:42,343
And I'm like,
"I don't do computer animation."
110
00:05:42,426 --> 00:05:45,096
She's like, "You've been
recommended to us by George."
111
00:05:45,179 --> 00:05:47,969
I'm like, "Really?
George recommended me, huh?"
112
00:05:48,056 --> 00:05:50,176
-And this is the way I'm talking.
-FAVREAU: Oh, yeah?
113
00:05:51,143 --> 00:05:53,063
-She goes, "I'd love..."
-He's got confidence.
114
00:05:53,145 --> 00:05:55,015
"I would love to meet with you."
115
00:05:55,105 --> 00:05:57,565
And I'm like,
"Oh, I would love to meet with you."
116
00:05:57,649 --> 00:06:00,359
-FAMUYIWA: So mysterious.
-And so this whole thing...
117
00:06:00,444 --> 00:06:03,824
And then, it's dawning on me,
the way she's talking...
118
00:06:03,906 --> 00:06:05,986
But I was like, "No,
I don't want to buy into this.
119
00:06:06,074 --> 00:06:07,414
"I always buy, I'm so naive."
120
00:06:07,492 --> 00:06:08,582
And I said, "Look..."
121
00:06:09,119 --> 00:06:12,119
She's about to hang up,
'cause we made the appointment.
122
00:06:12,206 --> 00:06:14,246
I said, "I got to ask,
who put you up to this?"
123
00:06:14,333 --> 00:06:16,593
She's like, "Excuse me?"
I'm like, "Who made you do it?
124
00:06:16,668 --> 00:06:19,548
"Is this the guys from SpongeBob?
Is this Vince? Who is this?"
125
00:06:19,630 --> 00:06:22,220
And she's like, "Is this Dave Filoni?"
And I'm like, "Yeah."
126
00:06:22,299 --> 00:06:24,429
She said, "You work on
Avatar: The Last Airbender?"
127
00:06:24,510 --> 00:06:27,260
I said, "Well, yeah."
She says, "Well, you're the guy."
128
00:06:27,346 --> 00:06:30,636
Then I realized, it just clicked.
I'm like, "Oh, my God."
129
00:06:30,724 --> 00:06:32,234
This is literally what I said.
130
00:06:32,309 --> 00:06:34,269
"You have no idea how the guy I am.
131
00:06:34,353 --> 00:06:35,903
-"I am so the guy."
-(ALL LAUGHING)
132
00:06:35,979 --> 00:06:37,519
I was like...
133
00:06:37,606 --> 00:06:41,066
"I have a Jedi costume
I'm making in my garage right now."
134
00:06:41,151 --> 00:06:44,401
And she later told me she
wanted to hang up right then and there,
135
00:06:44,488 --> 00:06:47,368
but she'd already made the appointment,
so she kept it.
136
00:06:47,449 --> 00:06:50,739
And then, I had to go through
two rounds of meeting people
137
00:06:50,827 --> 00:06:52,447
and then meet George.
138
00:06:52,538 --> 00:06:55,208
And when I met him,
I had to go up to the main house,
139
00:06:55,290 --> 00:06:58,840
and I had to sit there and,
you know, at a table.
140
00:06:58,919 --> 00:07:00,249
You know, he's got my portfolio,
141
00:07:00,337 --> 00:07:02,627
my little art portfolio
of animation things I've done.
142
00:07:02,714 --> 00:07:04,094
He's going through it like this.
143
00:07:04,174 --> 00:07:08,054
And I'm just sitting there like,
"Yeah, I'm not getting this,
144
00:07:08,136 --> 00:07:11,386
"'cause he sees the best
in the business, right?"
145
00:07:11,473 --> 00:07:12,893
And all I can really think is...
146
00:07:12,975 --> 00:07:14,475
You said, "That's from The Natural."
147
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:15,560
Right, right?
148
00:07:15,644 --> 00:07:17,024
All I could really think, though,
149
00:07:17,104 --> 00:07:23,034
"When I'm in line for Revenge of the Sith,
I can outclass any nerd there."
150
00:07:23,110 --> 00:07:25,820
-FAMUYIWA: "I got the best story ever."
-Because I've been in a room
151
00:07:25,904 --> 00:07:26,914
with George Lucas.
152
00:07:26,989 --> 00:07:30,159
My cred for my opinion
has just shot up.
153
00:07:30,242 --> 00:07:33,792
And then he closes my portfolio
and he looks at me, and he says,
154
00:07:33,871 --> 00:07:36,831
"Well, a Jedi would do this."
155
00:07:36,915 --> 00:07:39,035
And he starts
on this elaborate description
156
00:07:39,126 --> 00:07:43,626
of how a Jedi would handle
a negotiation more like a samurai.
157
00:07:43,714 --> 00:07:46,054
More like, almost like a mafia,
putting their lightsaber
158
00:07:46,133 --> 00:07:48,263
on the table, saying,
"It's how we'll do business.
159
00:07:48,343 --> 00:07:50,433
"If you don't listen to me,
this is kind of..."
160
00:07:50,512 --> 00:07:54,932
It's very much in the Toshiro Mifune
mindset of, "Here's the sword, boom.
161
00:07:55,017 --> 00:07:56,767
"We're gonna negotiate now on my terms."
162
00:07:56,852 --> 00:07:59,482
And he's talking about...
Everything he was saying,
163
00:07:59,563 --> 00:08:04,073
it was like getting incredible validation
for all the arguments I have with friends.
164
00:08:04,151 --> 00:08:09,281
'Cause I was like, "This..." I was like,
"I really got what you were saying."
165
00:08:09,364 --> 00:08:12,164
But you don't say anything.
You just listen.
166
00:08:12,242 --> 00:08:15,832
And I listen to him and listen to him,
and it was about ten minutes.
167
00:08:15,913 --> 00:08:18,213
Then the producer said,
"That's it. Your time's up."
168
00:08:18,290 --> 00:08:20,920
And he says, "Okay." And then I stood up,
and I was like,
169
00:08:21,001 --> 00:08:23,551
"Well, I'm never gonna see
this guy again."
170
00:08:23,629 --> 00:08:25,549
I said, "Nice to meet you."
I shook his hand.
171
00:08:25,631 --> 00:08:27,721
He said, "Very nice to meet you."
And I left.
172
00:08:27,799 --> 00:08:29,679
I went to the green room
next to his office,
173
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:33,010
and I was like, "Whew, that's awesome.
This was a great experience."
174
00:08:33,096 --> 00:08:35,466
'Cause he was cool,
he was super knowledgeable.
175
00:08:35,557 --> 00:08:39,437
He was everything that you thought
the guy who created Star Wars was.
176
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:40,520
Great experience.
177
00:08:40,604 --> 00:08:42,524
And then the producer opens
the door and says,
178
00:08:42,606 --> 00:08:45,066
"He likes you. You got the job."
And she shut the door.

181
00:08:53,992 --> 00:08:55,912
Really, for me, I felt with the pilot,
182
00:08:55,994 --> 00:09:00,794
my job was to show this guy as he is,
as he has been:
183
00:09:00,874 --> 00:09:03,924
A hardened, kind of weather-beaten person
184
00:09:04,002 --> 00:09:07,172
that has been through thingswe can't imagine
185
00:09:07,256 --> 00:09:09,756
and is just doing a job.
186
00:09:09,842 --> 00:09:13,682
And his job is hunting down beingsand turning them in.
187
00:09:13,762 --> 00:09:17,272
The consequences of that,the morality of it, "I get paid."
188
00:09:17,891 --> 00:09:23,021
And then everything's gonna shift rightat the end, you know, and it's that pull
189
00:09:23,105 --> 00:09:26,435
between greed and being more selfless,
190
00:09:26,525 --> 00:09:29,275
which is fundamentalto the human experience.
191
00:09:29,361 --> 00:09:31,491
And for Mando now, he's made choices,
192
00:09:31,572 --> 00:09:34,622
and how is he going to improve himself.
193
00:09:34,700 --> 00:09:39,370
You are Mandalorian.
Surely you can ride this young foal.

great animator, director,
storyteller, writer.
196
00:09:47,588 --> 00:09:52,128
But also, he has a strong intuitionabout what George would say.
197
00:09:52,217 --> 00:09:56,347
He's an encyclopedia
of all of the Star Wars lore.
198
00:09:56,430 --> 00:09:59,220
You can ask him anything.
"Hey, what about this shoulder pad?"
199
00:09:59,308 --> 00:10:00,308
Dave Filoni will say,
200
00:10:00,392 --> 00:10:03,482

"but let me tell you why and let metell you the history of why."
202
00:10:07,441 --> 00:10:11,821
There's a purity to his relationship
to Star Wars in general,
203
00:10:11,904 --> 00:10:14,914
that it's just like...It's really obvious.
204
00:10:14,990 --> 00:10:16,780
There's no Dave Filoni ego.
205
00:10:16,867 --> 00:10:20,537
It's just always all about
Star Wars and George

He is the truest lover of the material.
210
00:10:34,134 --> 00:10:35,554
He's so well-informed,
211
00:10:35,636 --> 00:10:38,386
and knows exactly what would fit,what would make sense.
212
00:10:38,639 --> 00:10:42,139
I think he, more than anyone,
just sort of innately knows
213
00:10:42,226 --> 00:10:44,386

you were in a different zone
that I'm not used to seeing,

because I'm coming out of...
219
00:11:13,507 --> 00:11:17,007
Even when working fast
on an indie, you're shooting,
220
00:11:17,094 --> 00:11:20,314
maybe you're doing eight pages,
you're like a hero.
221
00:11:20,389 --> 00:11:23,099
You would go in there
and have your game plan.

You're like, "Could I have
a few more stormtroopers?"
225
00:11:29,773 --> 00:11:31,323
I really liked killing stormtroopers.
226
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:34,190
FAVREAU: And I was always like,
"Take 'em."
227
00:11:34,278 --> 00:11:36,358
Yeah, I mean, I loved all that stuff.
228
00:11:36,446 --> 00:11:39,866
I'm a total... I love genre,
so I came out of sci-fi and fantasy
229
00:11:39,950 --> 00:11:42,040
like books, comics and video games.
230
00:11:42,119 --> 00:11:43,869
So as soon as I could, you know...
231
00:11:43,954 --> 00:11:46,924
'Cause I've been mostly doing television
for the last while.
232
00:11:47,291 --> 00:11:49,381
As soon as I was able to,
I started choosing shows
233
00:11:49,459 --> 00:11:52,089
-that I actually wanted to see.
-Yeah, you do a lot of cool TV.
234
00:11:52,171 --> 00:11:54,211
Yeah, I started...
235
00:11:54,298 --> 00:11:56,798
Probably the first big one I got
was Mr. Robot.
236
00:11:56,884 --> 00:12:00,514
At the time, we didn't know what it was.It wasn't a big show.
237
00:12:00,596 --> 00:12:03,466
So I just ended up
sort of going by taste of
238
00:12:03,557 --> 00:12:06,517
would I actually want to watch this,
and what am I into?
239
00:12:06,602 --> 00:12:07,942
Which sort of turned out to be
240
00:12:08,020 --> 00:12:11,360
sort of zombies and robots
and aliens basically. (LAUGHS)
241
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,440
That sort of ended up leading
to bigger and bigger shows,
242
00:12:14,526 --> 00:12:16,526
just because of the nature of the genre.
243
00:12:17,196 --> 00:12:19,656
But I think the difference
with television is that
244
00:12:19,740 --> 00:12:23,290
you're coming in to try to do something
really ambitious, really quickly.
245
00:12:23,368 --> 00:12:25,748
The only way to kind of do that
is to prep it
246
00:12:25,829 --> 00:12:27,919
as much as you can and come in planned.
247
00:12:27,998 --> 00:12:29,368
But it's still really hard.
248
00:12:33,420 --> 00:12:34,630
(INAUDIBLE)
249
00:12:36,006 --> 00:12:37,966
Just imagine... just overlap that
250
00:12:38,050 --> 00:12:40,800
and then come down to it
so you don't start already on it, okay?
251
00:12:40,886 --> 00:12:41,886
Oh, copy that.
252
00:12:43,096 --> 00:12:48,056
Deborah Chow was extremely efficient,
and she liked to shoot,
253
00:12:48,143 --> 00:12:51,523
and if you've got this many hours,then she's gonna use that many hours,
254
00:12:51,605 --> 00:12:53,395
and you guys are all gonna work for it.
255
00:13:00,781 --> 00:13:02,871
CHOW: As a director,the main thing I'm trying to do
256
00:13:02,950 --> 00:13:05,370
with every scene I'm directing
is just find some life.
257
00:13:06,036 --> 00:13:08,906
It doesn't matter if an actorchanges something and it's better,
258
00:13:08,997 --> 00:13:10,827
or they want to change the blocking.
259
00:13:10,916 --> 00:13:12,626
Even if I can't geta certain angle,
260
00:13:12,709 --> 00:13:14,919
I'd rather have somethingthat feels real and genuine
261
00:13:15,003 --> 00:13:16,713
and something alive about it.
262
00:13:16,797 --> 00:13:19,797
And so I think it's very importantthat you not squish that
263
00:13:19,883 --> 00:13:23,053
and that you let that breatheand you let there be an opportunity
264
00:13:23,136 --> 00:13:25,306
to just have something happen.
265
00:13:28,433 --> 00:13:31,773
I think with Star Wars, especiallywith it being the first television show,
266
00:13:31,854 --> 00:13:33,774
you really want to do it justice.
267
00:13:33,856 --> 00:13:36,776
So you do feel a responsibility,but I think it's more making sure
268
00:13:36,859 --> 00:13:39,819
that everything sort of
feels right to the world.
269
00:13:41,613 --> 00:13:42,953

00:14:05,762 --> 00:14:07,852
-It's just straight.
-Oh, I'm going to her.
279
00:14:07,931 --> 00:14:10,851
Yeah, you're going...
I think for the first one,
280
00:14:10,934 --> 00:14:13,604
'cause we're not on you.
We're pretty much on her,
281

all this way back

and just seeing this monster, you know,
294
00:14:55,521 --> 00:14:59,361

in the middle of the volume was like,
295

"I'm standing underneath the sandcrawler."

and writing and directing.So Jemaine and I would
448
00:24:40,230 --> 00:24:43,480
write and direct each other in things,'cause no one would hire us

for any, like, "real" plays.
And so, we're not like that,

and write our own stuff,
and that's how I learned how to...
453
00:24:55,787 --> 00:24:58,497
how to write and how to direct,
and we'd have to make

before... my background's painting,

00:25:11,386 --> 00:25:16,306

489
00:26:53,238 --> 00:26:55,448
-what I was talking about.
-What sort of...
490
00:26:56,450 --> 00:26:57,990
Well, I mean,
491
00:26:58,076 --> 00:27:00,196
(CHUCKLES) I can't remember any of it now.
492
00:27:00,287 --> 00:27:01,617
(ALL LAUGHING)
493
00:27:05,417 --> 00:27:06,417
Well...
494
00:27:10,297 --> 00:27:13,427
I found it very difficulthanging out with the other directors.
495
00:27:13,509 --> 00:27:16,049
They're very arrogant.
496
00:27:16,136 --> 00:27:21,766
Bryce is... I wouldn't say
I'm a hardcore fan.
497
00:27:23,644 --> 00:27:26,984
The whole production to be amateur.
No one knew what they're doing.
498
00:27:27,064 --> 00:27:31,654
The quality of the filmmaking,the quality of the sets was just abysmal.
499
00:27:31,735 --> 00:27:34,145
I was quite frankly embarrassed
to be involved.
500
00:27:35,030 --> 00:27:36,870
(ALL LAUGHING)
501
00:27:42,079 --> 00:27:44,209
Out here, we got Mr. Taika Waititi,
502
00:27:44,289 --> 00:27:48,169
a wonderful action-comedy director,
so this is a treat.
503
00:27:50,712 --> 00:27:54,342
FILONI: Taika's, of course, done Thor,
so he brings that experience.
504
00:27:54,424 --> 00:27:57,144
You see the intensity
in his mind and how he works.
505
00:27:57,219 --> 00:27:59,009
-(CREW APPLAUDS)
-(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
506
00:27:59,096 --> 00:28:02,216
He's serious, thoughtful,
yet also playful.
507
00:28:02,307 --> 00:28:04,347
He has an enthusiasm that's palpable.
508
00:28:04,434 --> 00:28:05,444
Well...
509
00:28:05,519 --> 00:28:10,979
He knew exactly what he wanted to shoot
and had a sense of humor about it.
510
00:28:12,651 --> 00:28:14,701
Come on, baby! Do the magic hand thing.
511
00:28:14,778 --> 00:28:17,608
Taika knows how to find the humor
in the action.
512
00:28:17,698 --> 00:28:20,868
That's different than making fun
of action, we don't make fun of it.
513
00:28:21,618 --> 00:28:24,868
This whole series,
though there's humorous moments,
514
00:28:24,955 --> 00:28:30,125
it's a serious story. And it fits
perfectly within that Star Wars canon.
515
00:28:30,210 --> 00:28:34,630
It doesn't take itself 100% seriously,
but it does believe in itself.
516
00:28:39,178 --> 00:28:40,798
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
517
00:28:43,432 --> 00:28:48,852
I really loved this way of working
with all of these directors.
518
00:28:48,937 --> 00:28:54,397
And what also helped a lotwas the presence of Jon and Dave around,
519
00:28:54,484 --> 00:29:00,074
basically just to keep me
from veering out of the lane too far.
520
00:29:00,824 --> 00:29:03,204
CHOW: It was a different experienceto get to work
521
00:29:03,285 --> 00:29:06,455
with other directors in creating a show.
522
00:29:06,538 --> 00:29:09,668
And we can also bounce ideasoff each other, to say like,
523
00:29:09,750 --> 00:29:12,590
"What do you think of this?"or "Does this make sense?"
524
00:29:12,669 --> 00:29:16,259
FILONI: And I just think the key isyou hire good people.
525
00:29:16,340 --> 00:29:19,380
Get caught up in what their talents are.
I mean, obviously,
526
00:29:19,468 --> 00:29:23,758
to have done the work that they'veall done, they're all really talented.
527
00:29:23,847 --> 00:29:27,267
But the big difference is,
what kind of person are you?
528
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:31,230
We all get in a room, and I think,
529
00:29:31,313 --> 00:29:34,903
because this is so new to many of us,
530
00:29:34,983 --> 00:29:39,953
that we all get together on it,
and it becomes a real team thing.
531
00:29:40,030 --> 00:29:43,580
Everybody's bringingtheir unique perspective to this,
532
00:29:43,659 --> 00:29:49,579
and I think that ultimately makes usstronger, makes this a better story.
533
00:29:49,665 --> 00:29:52,955
They all ask questions about the script,and Jon and I are like,
534
00:29:53,043 --> 00:29:56,803
"Ooh, we didn't see that."
But then we're willing to fix it,
535
00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:58,550
and find new ways to do things.
536
00:29:58,632 --> 00:30:04,012
I don't know,
it almost is like a Star Wars school.
537
00:30:08,517 --> 00:30:10,347
I like hiring smart people.
538
00:30:10,435 --> 00:30:13,475
To me, if you have smart people
who are curious and creative,
539
00:30:13,564 --> 00:30:16,404
but if they're inspired and they're sharp,
540
00:30:16,483 --> 00:30:21,913
they'll be able to learn. And really,
directing, what you're learning is
541
00:30:21,989 --> 00:30:24,619
you have to learn every day,
because you're presented
542
00:30:24,700 --> 00:30:27,410
with a new set of circumstances,
and you have to adapt.
543
00:30:27,494 --> 00:30:31,374
If you stick to the playbook,
you're not gonna succeed.
544
00:30:31,456 --> 00:30:36,666
And that's what's different
from writing or animation,
545
00:30:36,753 --> 00:30:41,093
where opportunities present themselves,
but at a much lower rate.
546
00:30:41,175 --> 00:30:43,385
The opportunities
are hitting you constantly,
547
00:30:43,468 --> 00:30:45,798
but they might seem like challenges.
548
00:30:45,888 --> 00:30:50,768
But really, somebody who's creative
and who's smart will not be afraid
549
00:30:50,851 --> 00:30:55,441
to kind of jump out of the plane
before the parachute comes out after you.
550
00:30:55,522 --> 00:30:59,572
And, so, everybody here
are creatively brave.
551
00:30:59,651 --> 00:31:03,411
That's really the unifying thing,
you all have various levels of experience,
552
00:31:03,488 --> 00:31:07,408
different backgrounds, different genres
or media that you come from.
553
00:31:07,492 --> 00:31:11,042
But everybody, I think
there is something. I think that's why
554
00:31:11,121 --> 00:31:13,371
everybody kind of
clicked so well together.
