What can I watch to better understand their mentality and their lifestyle? You know, the high workload-little reward people that are needed for every production, that may thanklessly work in sound design, mixing, editing, location scouting, motion graphics, 2nd unit people..etc. Especially that ones that have lengthy careers yet never really lead projects on their own. Unironically being on the narcissistic spectrum makes this a bit more puzzling for me but it just sounds so grueling and tiresome in the long run. Having to do post-production work on my own projects makes me want to an hero, so doing it for others naturally seems perplexing, considering the relatively little pay.
haskell wexler, director of medium cool, made a documentary about how hellish hollywood editors' lives during his era. it's called ''who needs sleep''.
