As Ava DuVernay’s series comes to a close, below-the-line crew members reflect on the life-changing experience — one they hope isn't a 'unicorn.'

The director and outgoing Warner Bros. Television head created a guide to diverse below-the-line talent. Studio execs tell them “nothing will ever be the same.”

The program manager said the series stood out among local productions for its longevity. “Louisiana is such a beautiful and vibrant place,” Warren said. “Being able to film here and count on there being a workforce here sets it up for a beautiful gumbo pot of an experience.” A few years later, Warren said Glaude ran into Ramsey while filming an episode for the fifth season of the series. Ramsey was now a COVID compliance PA for the show. “You told me you wanted to direct,” Ramsey told Glaude,“ and now we’re on the episode you’re directing.”

“I recruit on a national scale,” Warren said. “I’ve worked on projects in 30 different cities. I recruit for Oscar-nominated, Emmy-nominated productions, and it all started with a DM.”Christina Applegate and Linda Cardellini spoke to The Times about the former’s multiple sclerosis, the ‘ambiguous’ ending of Netflix’s dark comedy and more.Aurora Knox

Knox said she still misses it daily and throughout her interview reiterated that it felt like “one big, happy family.” Her only complaint is that there aren’t more episodes to work on. “Everybody that I talked to would love to have one more season, and that includes me.”Assistant director Desiree Stevenson can measure her life milestones by seasons of “Queen Sugar.”

Stevenson juggled her new responsibilities with being a working mother of infant twins in a pandemic. She said that while COVID protocols made the season challenging, her transition to first AD felt “flawless.”
