Could you explain what you mean by middle talent / middle layers?

  Sure, think of any movie or TV show kind of like a startup or a company. The Executive Producers are like the Board. The show runner, director and sometimes certain talent are like the C-Suite or SVPs. These set the vision, pace, hiring, management, budgeting etc... like in a normal business. There are then the middle level directors (casting, lighting, sound) editors and line producers who do the lions share of the work and are supposed to interpret the intents of the director and show runners - basically handle all the details and make sure things run smoothly. Finally the supporting cast, craft services etc...are basically told what to do, how to do it and when.
