About this episode

Beth D'Amato, ILM digital paint supervisor, joins Todd, Rob, and Jenny to discuss their favorite camera moves, compositions, and notable "oners". Beth shares how she got her start in VFX, and we learn that sometimes the phrase, "We will keep your resume on file" is a good thing! The ILM pros answer questions about basic VFX terminology, and we bust an internet myth.
