Ep. #18: "The Substance" (Live from the 2025 AD Awards Winner Q&A) with 1st AD Matthieu de la Mortière, 2nd ADs Olivia & Benoît, 2nd 2nd AD Anne and 3rd ADs Agathe & Joséphine

This is part two of our two-part Assistant Director Awards Special - because this year, Meet the ADs partnered with the Assistant Director Awards (ADA) to share the winning teams’ insights with a wider audience.

We’re not part of the awards organisation itself, but we’re proud to collaborate in celebrating outstanding AD work from around the globe. Julia hosted the 2025 ADA Winners’ Q&A featuring the gold-winning AD teams of Ripley and The Substance. The conversations were far too good to disappear into a Zoom archive, so we’re bringing them to you as two special podcast episodes.

For "The Substance" the entire AD team was present consisting of 1st AD Matthieu de la Mortière, 2nd ADs Olivia Delplace & Benoît Seiller, 2nd 2nd AD Anne Juin and 3rd ADs Agathe Manzanares & Joséphine Anquiez.

This Q&A was recorded live on Zoom, with a visual audience present and questions coming in throughout the session so the conversation style is a little different from our usual episodes. You’ll notice a few audio hiccups here and there.
