Josh shares insights into the role of a Best Boy Grip and their shared vision for training the next generation of technicians. We also chat about their work in Namibia on Mad Max: Fury Road, the evolution of grip tech for Furiosa, and the sheer scale of stunts and logistics involved in filming The Fall Guy in the heart of Sydney.
