The witnesses may forgive me as I am new to the film industry, as opposed to theatre or media.

First, is Ms McGrane making a distinction between her in an office at the bureaucratic or creative end of it, and the brilliant trainee rigger, construction worker, electrician on the ground because it does not seem as though they have the same facility to run through the system and get to the top of their game, to become supervisors, to become permanent or whatever? Does Ms McGrane understand the distinction I am making?
