You know, so far I, I think what, what CG has done for us is, is made things a lot safer, uh, and the ability to do more things.
33:07
You know, if you look at, like, the Spider-Man on television back in the s- in the, in the day, uh, compared to what the actor and the stunt people are able to do as Spider-Man today, you know.
33:18
So the cables and the technology for that is, is really helping us.
33:22
And I think AI is gonna help augment those things, create some of the background work for us, and then also in the kind of pre-visualization it's gonna help.
34:54
W- what would the schedule be?

force.So how much, how would it work with like Liam if you had a fight scene to coordinate? How much prep, like how would, what would the schedule be?
36:37
Well, uh, you know, Liam's really good now.
7:56
How do you... form that relationship with an actor who you then end up doubling repeatedly and doing sort of stunt work for? Talk me through that process.
8:07
A little bit of it's serendipitous.
8:09
In your career starting out, you jump all over it.
8:13
And sometimes somebody asks for you to come back.
8:18
Sometimes they don't care.
8:19
Sometimes they don't have that.
8:21
They're not in that position.
10:08
How much driving does Liam do? How much is stuntman? What's the ratio, really?
