I performed general production assistant responsibilities mixed with some AD work, when the producer had to leave set. Additionally, I assisted with focus racks and served as assistant to the DP. This was for a promo video for the film critic Matt Zoller Seitz featured on Indiegogo. https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/help-matt-zoller-seitz-make-space-rabbit-fantasy#/

This was the first project which I found at the script level and actualized in to a living professional project. Prior to this, I had a few low level credits as a PA and 2nd assistant AD. The success of this production illustrates my potential, when working with other more experienced professional I can learn from. • Oversaw all aspects of craft services • Secured authentic jail location • Prepared and organized all book-keeping • Established LLC • Scheduled all casting calls and meetings • Communicated needs and action steps for all departments • Completed all deal memos and hiring • Created all social media account and online presence • Successfully raised $6,000 on Kickstarter • Generated daily Call Sheet and shooting schedule
