The Indy Mogul Podcast

  Directors and actors aren't the only people needed to make a movie. You have the unsung heroes of the grip and electric department, whose job it is to set up complicated lighting schemes and heavy rigs. It's often a thankless job that requires being on set for long days without very much idle time. That's why we have Martin Torner, union grip for movies such as Iron Man 2 and Thor, to illuminate this side of the industry with on-set horror stories and what is required to get into gripping.    On this episode, Ted and Martin talk about gripping on Hollywood sets and what you need to know to start working in G&E.
