Hey! I resemble that remark! Among other things I produce newscasts for my station. There are good producers and there are bad producers. Good producers are always trying to improve the product, but also make sure their people know what they're doing right. Bad producers either do nothing but criticize or they never criticize. Either way, the product suffers.
And yes, I feel quite fulfilled. My crew is freakin' awesome, and all I basically have to do after putting the show together is sit back and let them do their thing. Before this gig, I'd never worked with a news / production team where EVERYONE is motivated and wants to give 150% to put out a great product. The weakest link in our chain is equipment. Too bad more producers can't say that about the people they work with.
