Speaking candidly, they highlighted the unpredictable nature of the film industry and its potential impact on the mental well-being of cast and crew members.
Victor and Romanski shared their experiences and underscored that mental health challenges can arise unexpectedly, making it crucial to have dedicated mental health coordinators available on set. They noted that the pressures of production can lead to heightened stress and emotional strain, and having professionals on hand can provide necessary support and resources.
