Summary
▶ About This Episode:Director Jackson Tisi sits down with Dylan Hahn to break down the making of New Era’s "Weather It All" - an ambitious commercial that brings blizzards, heat waves, and full-on football grit inside a studio. Jackson shares how he and DP Zoë Simone-Yi built entire sets from scratch, from a handmade bar soaked in practical rain to a miniature football field lit like a living storm system. They get into snow chemistry, set design that feels like real locations, destructive practical gags, and how a tiny miscommunication in VFX turned into one of the spot’s most iconic moments. Along the way, Jackson opens up about pitching at a high level, collaborating with editors and composers like lifelong friends, and fighting to keep the creative process as playful as it was when he started. ▶ About The Reframed Podcast:“Reframed” is a filmmaker podcast that poses fresh and insightful questions to filmmakers.
