HOW I SHOOT: 004 Director Joshua Caldwell


Listen Later

Joshua Caldwell likes to direct with a camera in his hands, knowing how the lens is going to affect performance and get the moment he needs. Caldwell speaks with Alan McIntyre about his collaborative planning process on films, why the technical decisions matter, and why it's good to get some pushback from creative partners.

The films we discuss are Mending the Line, starring Brian Cox, Infamous, starring Bella Thorne, and Layover.
