Chris Salters, editor and founder of Sawtooth, tells us the importance of using the right tool for the right job in filmmaking. Whether it’s LED walls, green screens, or AI-powered tools, the key is understanding the limitations and challenges of each technology and using them responsibly to achieve the desired creative outcome. It’s about leveraging technology in a thoughtful and effective manner. Chris and I are both passionate about respecting the craft and delivering the best possible work for our clients and collaborators.
