The tragedy on the Midnight Rider shoot which killed assistant camerawoman Sarah Jones and injured others has industry veterans calling for change. Producer Marty Katz talks about the safety protocols that DGA members are trained to employ on set. Then, Oscar-winning cinematographer Haskell Wexler furthers the conversation on crew safety by discussing the dangerous issue of severe fatigue due to long work days.
