On the fourth episode of our Talking to Actors series, DGC Director Aubrey Arnason sits down with renowned Director-Actor Amanda Tapping (Stargate SG-1, The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, Motherland: Fort Salem). Starting from her first experience transitioning behind the camera on Stargate SG-1, Tapping provides insight into what Directors can do if they lose an actor, how they should approach gun-for-hire episodic shoots, common communication mistakes, how to navigate emotional scenes, and more.

The DGC Podcast is produced by the Directors Guild of Canada National Directors Division and hosted by filmmakers Aubrey Arnason and Katia Café-Fébrissy.
