This week on the pod, we’re joined by Bailee Wilson!

A camera operator, cast driver/assistant, and all-round legend with a passion for both the screen industry and sport. We kōrero about what it’s like wearing multiple hats on set, what we’ve been watching lately, and the latest industry news making waves in Aotearoa.

Whether you're crew, cast, or just film curious, there’s something in here for you.

In this episode of The Reel Mess Podcast 🎙️  we're joined by our very first guest - Anna Giddings! 

We kick things off with a chat about what we’ve been watching lately, then deep dive into the journey from school to screen — discussing the challenges, lessons, and what it takes to break into the industry.

Plus, we cover the latest industry news (some exciting stuff!) and have a sneak peak at the NZIFF first look, including a standout: an Australian, animated queer space opera! 🏳️‍🌈
