Y’all this week my Agent told me that each tv Directing job is getting about 500 submissions

I understand it’s the same for Writers

Oof

Do directors and writers still collaborate to make a project happen, or is that no longer really possible in this environment?

  1. in tv?

    not really in the US unless you’re talking name people

    here in tv Writers (Showrunners) take the lead and then bring us Directors on later

    in film Directors lead projects more

    but I think the collaboration you’re asking about it more common at name levels and in the UK
