Welcome to the premiere episode of The Filmmaker's Playbook, hosted by writer-director Jason Branagan. This episode features an interview with Diarmuid Goggins, an award-winning director renowned for his work on popular TV shows like 'Casualty', 'Silent Witness', 'Bulletproof', AMC's crime drama series 'KIN' and the number 1 Netflix series, 'Witness Number 3'. Diarmuid shares insights into his journey so far, how to marry efficiency and ambition, the notes process, how he communicates his vision to his HODs, mistakes made and lessons learned, how to work with actors and much more.  The purpose of this podcast is to give a behind-the-scenes glimpse of the filmmaking process and to make information about filmmaking accessible to everyone, so whether you're a casual film fan, an aspiring filmmaker, or a seasoned pro, I hope you enjoy today's episode and find some inspiration in Diarmuid's insights, honesty and observations. As the podcast is still in its infancy I would love feedback on ways to make it better.
