This would be my worst nightmare as a 1stAD. I can This would be my worst nightmare as a 1stAD. I can't believe this happened, and I'm honestly shocked. I have so many questions about how this happened. This is why i take safety to serious on set. I also remember one time there were replica guns on one of my sets and one was pointed at me, and i didn't care it shouldn't be pointed in anyone's direction. I was quick to say do not fuck around with props guns. I don't know how this happened, but when new details come to light I hope we learn from this, but its so sad and shocking that a very young a talented DP is now dead. And I can only imagine how Alec Baldwin feels thinking he was handed a safe gun. Such a horrible tragedy.
