The standby art director got recently sacked off the job I’m doing after a month of filming. Apparently because of creative differences with the director. I met her and she was so lovely and chilled and I guess she didn’t get along with the white male director and AD? What do you think about situation like this when people leave or get fired during filming?

Very true!

It's definitely not ideal, but sometimes things just don't work out. I try to stay out of it if it's not really any of my business. But also, someone being nice doesn't necessarily mean they are good at their job.

Yes that’s true- and I suppose I wasn’t on set that much to see first hand, but I did hear that she was a great standby art director, just didn’t click with the director!

Creative differences are the vaguest term on the planet. Always sad to see somebody I got along with leave, but sometimes, if it was just going to be a bigger issue down the road, better to part ways now.

Yes it’s a bit scary when you think about it!

Yikes that doesn't sound good. It does happen so I probably wouldn't think twice about it. She may not have been a good fit for the role overall.

Yes that’s true, it’s hard to know the situation!

Just want to make sure people know this and don’t apply jobs in this shady company- it is called UniQ Biotech, in Delta, BC, Canada

But do you think it's wise to do so at the risk of damaging your work environment or the whole thing backfiring on you? Thoughts are welcome.
