▶ About This Episode:Director Megan Tan joins Dylan Hahn to break down "The Champion Recipe," a storytelling-driven spot for Lexar's Argentina-designed SSD made with the AFA. Megan walks through shooting the entire thing in one 14-hour day in Malaysia, dressing a local Airbnb to pass as an Argentinian home, casting a real footballer over a trained actor, and packing in training scenes, a dialogue-heavy centerpiece, and a rain-soaked finale. They also dive into the DP relationship, the reflective light sweep everyone asks about, and how years of cinematic YouTube vlogging prepared Megan to direct on a real set.
