This session goes behind the scenes of Corriedale, unpacking how producers, planners, and stunt teams merged two long-running worlds into a single explosive storyline. From synchronising cast availability across parallel productions, unifying crews with different workflows, and redesigning locations to sell a shared reality, to managing large-scale stunts safely under intense time pressure—this is a deep dive into the logistical, creative, and safety planning that made the impossible work. A must-attend for anyone interested in complex TV production, large-ensemble scheduling, and controlled chaos done right.
