You Better Recognize! A talented supervisor or manager is astute enough to understand that an employee is not defined by his or her job title/description. I once worked at a film production company where I was promoted three times in six months. I started out answering phones and making coffee and was soon the Visual Effects Coordinator for the biggest budget IMAX film to that date. Why? Because the producer (who went on to found RealD 3-D) could see that my skills of working hard, doing things quickly and always saying ‘yes’ to what I was asked would translate into the 60+ hours per week on a film set. How could a ‘receptionist’ become an integral part of a multi-million dollar production? How could a production assistant for a home shopping network become the Operations Director of the network in less than a year? Yep… same guy. Thanks to supervisors, managers, executives and corporate presidents who could all assess talent and not be confined by a title. So, hiring managers… take a closer look at that resume from the person that doesn’t have the exact qualifications or job title you’re looking for. Dig deeper. Look for qualities, talents and skills rather than a direct 1:1 correlation. A more well-rounded candidate might just be available.

🚩Remember: A Creative Director is hired to DIRECT the creative. The title is the job description. If you’re being thrown “idunnos”w/ no compass that’s called a vague director. And the only traction you’ll get is spinning wheels.

Creative Manager | Expert in Video Production, Post Production and Storytelling | Passionate About Building Brands and Engaging Audiences
Chances are you are hiring production professionals who are faking it. This is just facts. Most up and coming in the regional markets weren't trained, weren't brought up on set, or in a production office. Production isn't easy... well unless your creative is weak and you have a big budget, then its impossible not to screw it up. And many have figured out, hire a good DP, say yes to everything and "you too can be an exec producer or even a director!" I'll leave you with this. In Wherespot FB group this past week this was a post: A client wants to hire me to produce a few commercial spots in Houston. The project requires Talent, Director, DP, key grip with gear, and multiple locations, so maybe a location scout. So my question is, what is the person called to put all these pieces together? Would that be the Production Manager? I am looking for a person in Houston who can help me put all these assets together and give me price points for these individuals. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Sigh... this was not satire. This person was being hired to "produce" for a client, and literally asked for help "producing" the job without knowing what he was being asked to do or how.

What Does a Production Assistant Do? https://ift.tt/dSzW7EG So you want to get into the film business, but have no idea where to start. Well, many people start as production assistants. They can be the first job you get, and they're a position where you don't need much experience to start. But what exactly do production assistants do? And how much can you expect to make? Today, I want to go over the job of the production assistant and talk about how important they are on set and how valuable your time working as one can be if you can get your foot in the door. And if you have other questions about film crew jobs, check out our breakdown of every job on set. Ready? Let's jump in. 'Wonder Woman' behind the scenes Credit: Warner Bros. What Does a Production Assistant Do? And How Much Do Production Assistants Make? Hollywood is full of jobs that people outside the industry have never thought about. But to make movies and TV shows, hundreds if not thousands of people have to be employed. The very lowest on the totem pole is the humble production assistant, or PA. Without them, nothing would ever happen. What Is a Production Assistant? A production assistant, also known as a PA, is a member of the crew on a film and TV show. They are entry-level jobs on set, reserved for people who are breaking into the industry. The job of a PA is different based on the specific needs of the set and the size of the production. It also matters whether or not the production you're on is union or not, because the union can guarantee you more pay and better-defined roles. There are times when specific PAs are attached to the filmmaker or actors and help them out as individuals as well. 'Fatherhood' Credit: Netflix What Does a Production Assistant Do on Set? Your job as a PA will vary depending on the size of the budget as well as your relative experience on set. More experienced production assistants might be helping the director or writer exclusively. Someone new might stand at the end of a road and make sure no one drives down it. The basic job each PA has, no matter how experienced, is to help the 1st Assistant Director make sure that the production has everything it needs. That means you'll be doing tasks for pretty much every department. It's difficult to say exactly what you can expect to do on any given day, but suffice it to say you'll be doing everything and anything the 1st AD asks of you, whether that's moving things from point A to point B, wrangling cords, grabbing coffee, or setting up props. If you're unsure how you should prepare for the job, check out these dozens of tips on how to prepare for your first PA gig. What Are the Production Assistant Hours on Set? PAs work very long hours. Their shifts are usually 12 hours but can go upwards of 16 hours, thanks to overtime. There are specific laws concerning how long you can work on set one day and what time you would have to report the next day. Make sure you learn what's legal i...

Co-Founder The SmartSales™ Academy | Helping businesses build high-performing teams to increase their bottom line, outsell the competition, and build strong relationships with the market that sustain future growth
Ever wondered what really powers a business? It hit me one day, thanks to Disney. 🏰✨ I got to chat with an executive cast member at Disney - the experts of making everyone’s day - who shared something with me something super simple and game-changing: At Disney, no matter what your job is, you're there to create happiness. 🎈 That got me thinking 🤔. As business owners, when we look to grow a team, we think about filling jobs. Needed a sales guru? Check. A tech whiz? Check. Admin? Check. But…what would be possible if we were all chasing the same dream? Instead of individual ‘jobs’, what if the key focus of each role was bringing joy and value to our customers together? What if we mix things up and start looking for candidates who get excited about what we do and WHY we do it. 🤯 More than just having the skills; it becomes about sharing our big dream of making our clients' lives and businesses better. It’s a game changer when your team transcends being a group of people working together to a united front, making customers' experiences unforgettable. 🚀 We can all borrow a bit of that Disney magic to become more than a company someone does business with - we can become a part of our customers' stories, creating moments that stick. Here’s the thing: It’s all about finding people who share your vision, every day. It’s about making that the heart of your business. So, next time you’re hiring, think beyond the resume. Ask, “Will this person help turn our business into a vision-driven machine?” 🌟 Ready to build a team that’s all about spreading joy and smashing goals? Let’s do this! #disney #sales #business
