As different directors tackle single episodes or an entire series, a strong relationship between directors and showrunners is crucial to maintaining a cohesive and dynamic vision of the storytelling. Join these showrunner + director pairs, who have worked together across multiple episodes, as they discuss the challenges of collaborating across a season of stories, establishing trust, and what occurs when opinions collide. 

Panelists: Joe Weisberg and Joel Fields (The Americans); Thomas Schlamme (The Americans); Kevin Falls (Pitch, The West Wing); Paris Barclay (Pitch); Dave Andron (Snowfall) 

Moderated by Director Kat Candler (Queen Sugar)
