Wow! Cudos! To be able to cut that Live...Perfect! I've watched this clip a hundred times. I've been Directing for 15 years..this was Fantastic and your TD was on point. Thanks for uploading...
Thank you forever for putting up how they created one of the most memorable, Emmy winning production numbers in American TV. Are there any other recordings of rehearsals or camera blocking or anything else from this production? Who decided to record the control room? Please add links here. The moment Spider man puffed his chest... I wish Glenn would explain how he saw/caught so many single second moments from 9 (?) cameras. Amazing. Never forget L-M M wrote that song for NPH.
I think he caught them because he was standing up. Could see more detail on those monitors. He was calling for more star reactions at the end there too. Unscripted moments like that are hard. Incredible quick work and eye. Biggest props to the camera crew finding those shots too.
Wow! I video direct too but not even remotely close to how he does it. Very intense! Talk about controlled chaos. Bravo! That’s the way it should be done.
A two. A one. Two, Three. A Three. A Five. A Four. A Three. Two. A Two. Four, Six, Four Two. Four, Seven! Five, Seven! Six, Seven! SEVEN! SEVEN! SEVEN! SEVEN! SEVEN! SEVEN!
Who’s here because Tom Scott recommended this masterpiece? Btw: here is the show by itself (time-stamp about 6:00): th-cam.com/video/4SQfsBsMFls/w-d-xo.html
He only doesn’t say “take” after the song when they’re direct-cutting to people instantly to get someone’s reaction. Usually you call a shot so the camera gets ready, then take the shot. In that moment, you don’t have time for that.
No because you need to concentrate on creativity and you still need to call out the numbers anyway to tell the camera operators they are going to be put on air
Amazing work, although I do find the end result...annoying. The shots change so quickly you never really get a chance to see what's actually happening..
Snapping of the fingers doesn't bother me personally. I have been mixing for some time and some directors who I have worked tend to have a some physical "tell" for moments when they want to cut to the next take.
Now get him to vision mix as well as direct. I've seen technical directors just as good as this, and they're physically doing more than this guy. He's good at what he does though.
No need to be defensive about it. TDs are great. But for a production this big, having a dedicated director allows each to focus solely on one task, which helps here.
Who the Hell would put up with ANY TV director ranting, raving, & clicking his fingers at the Vision Mixer (called a Technical Director in the USA) for the next camera shot ? This sort of behaviour and attitude is absolutely and totally unnecessary in any sort of professional TV situation. It's also very distracting & irritating to the camera operators who do not need a lunatic screaming instructions in their ears ! It might look impressive to the casual observer, but as a UK Vision Mixer // Technical Director myself, there's no way I'd work alongside a guy like this, irrespective of whether or not he'd won an award for directing ! He's obviously NOT working to scripted camera shots and is "calling-it" as he sees it, but he has NO need to be standing up to direct, and even less to be pointing at TVs in the monitor stack. It's all unnecessary and verging on attention seeking behaviour 😟
It is AWESOME by him and anyone involved. I even love how he handles the wrong camera cue in the middle of it
which wrong camera cue?
@@welcomeblack at 1:24 he asks for camera 5 but camera 6 gets cued instead (closeup of Harris)
That's an art form that not many people get to see... what a performance. The Smashing Security podcast led me here and I'm glad for that.
"Two take go get em" - Camera man must feel like a boss
“Go get em” is one of the best things you can hear from a director as a camera op.
0:33 lol that wiggle in the zoom, that cameraman was probably shitting himself for his queue XD
Me ordering at the chinese takeaway
This is the director that proposed to his girlfriend when he won the Emmy at the _70th Emmy Awards_ z
RaymondHng Yes! Mr. Glenn Weiss! 👍🏿😀
OMG IT WAS!!!!
Ah, a nice, mellow, low-pressure situation. ☺️
I hope he & the crew all had a nice vacation afterwards.

I'm exhausted and I just watch lol
I just love it when a camera crash zooms in or out into someone
Usually called a "punch-in" in production lingo.

anyone ever try his number call outs for lottery picks? LOL
holy crap, what a masterpiece
Imagine you're the camera director standing by and suddenly need the toilet.
UNEFFING BELIEVABLE!!! GREATEST TONY MOMENT EVER!
*This* is how to get viewership back on awards shows! I'd watch this!
This won an emmy btw.
Wow! I video direct too but not even remotely close to how he does it. Very intense! Talk about controlled chaos. Bravo! That’s the way it should be done.
Legendary!
That's numberwang!
It's like a quick maths class :D
That TD was probably just hard cutting at that point lol
Jeff Brown for sure
Yes the director starts snapping instead of ready/cam no. and take. Pretty smart little technique really.
0:52 the numbers mason, what do they mean?
They're the numbers assigned to each camera e.g. 9 = The wide shot looking toward the audience, 10 = the wide shot looking onto the stage etc.
Amazing ! Hope to work with you some day ...
That's Numberwang!
Arte, increible!
I have never been so terrified of my own career path
A two. A one. Two, Three. A Three. A Five. A Four. A Three. Two. A Two. Four, Six, Four Two. Four, Seven! Five, Seven! Six, Seven! SEVEN! SEVEN! SEVEN! SEVEN! SEVEN! SEVEN!

Monica: seven!
WOW
The maestro a-maestroing
Maravilloso
Amazing!
insane shit
Sometimes he has to say "take" before the feed switches, and sometimes he doesn't. Why?
He only doesn’t say “take” after the song when they’re direct-cutting to people instantly to get someone’s reaction. Usually you call a shot so the camera gets ready, then take the shot. In that moment, you don’t have time for that.
Am I the only one seeing Mike Tyson at the 01:32 mark??
should be touch screen for him to press himself =))
No because you need to concentrate on creativity and you still need to call out the numbers anyway to tell the camera operators they are going to be put on air
too professional
Juskolord ka pressure 😅
as a td myself, I'd be taking 5 months of leave after that
Would have loved to be the vision switcher then.
Caleb Nichols Oof
que se necesita estudiar para trabajar así? :V
Should’ve just split screen everything that way you see all the action and reactions 👍🏽
Amazing work, although I do find the end result...annoying. The shots change so quickly you never really get a chance to see what's actually happening..
Seeing the video with the track this is the epitome of a director using quick cuts and just randomly calling cameras. Its garbage.
The Emmy Committee begs to differ.
This guy is beyond awful, and the snapping of fingers is dehumanizing to anyone working with him. Prayers to the Vision Mixer.
Snapping of the fingers doesn't bother me personally. I have been mixing for some time and some directors who I have worked tend to have a some physical "tell" for moments when they want to cut to the next take.
He’s likely worked with all these guys before. There’s only a small set of guys who work at this level.
Now get him to vision mix as well as direct. I've seen technical directors just as good as this, and they're physically doing more than this guy. He's good at what he does though.

Paul Walker It’s called passion and excitement buddy. Maybe it’ll strike you someday. ;)
You can hear the others laughing in the background. Nobody else is offended.
something's wrong with you bro
lol no one becomes a fucking broadcast director for the *attention*
I’ve seen lot of directors stand up while while doing a music broadcast
