Besides, I've always thought doing a great job as an AD just makes you a better AD with more AD jobs. Most directors can't do without a good AD and while an AD can go over to directing (James McTeigue), I don't think the other way around has ever been witnessed. Therefore studios probably don't encourage ADs to have bigger ambitions. I am not in the 'industry' but the above seems plausible, would you agree?
