Don Roy King has been the Director of SNL since 2006, and I think just won an Emmy for last season. Yet, it seems to me there have been several technical problems already this season, more frequent than I recall noticing in the past. These seem to be related to taking the wrong camera shot at the wrong time (it happened last night, and during at least two other episodes this season).
I’m sure putting on a live show is incredibly complex, and it is probably surprising there aren’t more problems. But it seems odd that they would start having more problems now. Is someone other than the Director responsible for this kind of thing? Maybe rather than taking the wrong shot, the camera operator is in the wrong place? So maybe they have a rookie on one of the cameras? Also, this is happening while the musical numbers seem to be unusually complex and demanding, so maybe they are spending more time prepping those and less time rehearsing the sketches? -- Sent from Gmail Mobile -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TVorNotTV" group.
