Episode Description from the Publisher

In our first ever emergency episode, we unpick Donald Trump's 'tweet-bomb' from last week in which he announced a 100% tariff on all movies made in "foreign lands."This left a lot of us asking what this announcement might mean for the film industry in the UK and the US, so in this episode we try to make sense of the madness with the help of some experts on both sides of the Atlantic.We're joined by Production Designer and former chair of the British Film Designers Guild, Blair Barnette, and former President of the US Art Directors Guild, Thomas Walsh, who give us their take on the situation and answer some of your questions about it.LINKS:BFDG www.britishfilmdesigners.comADG www.adg.orgFOLLOW US!Instagraminstagram.com/openingcreditsTikToktiktok.com/@weareopeningcreditsYouTubeyoutube.com/@weareopeningcredits Hosted on Acast.
