PA on a commercial for Adobe's new partnership with the Annenberg School Of Communication at USC. I did all the usual on-set PA work, including delivering and setting up equipment and going on supply runs.

Production Assistant on the upcoming PBS documentary series "Cool Spaces." I set up lights, picked up and delivered equipment to the set and managed the shooting area during filming.

I assisted in post-production research for an upcoming documentary. I also served as a creative consultant, by helping to shape the narrative and offering critiques of each cut. Finally, I worked on the film's festival submissions.

I worked in filmmaker relations, which involved maintaining the festival's relationship with the filmmakers. It was a customer service position, in which I made sure they had all the necessary information and passes and answered any questions that they may have had. I also managed their tickets and maintained paperwork.

On-set PA for a pop music video. I assisted every department, particularly the producers, went on runs, moved equipment and handled craft services.

On-set PA for a major music video, directed by Mr. Brainwash. It was a small set, so I had a lot to do, including equipment runs, setting up sequences, behind-the-scenes photography and whatever else I was asked to do.

I assisted the head of the archive in his research for an upcoming book on Saul Bass. I went through old, non-digitized copies of the trades in order to find articles on Bass.

Before the festival, I worked in programming and scheduling, and I screened all of the submitted film. During the fest, I worked in filmmaker relations, delivered the films to the theaters, introduced the films and ran post-screening Q&A's.
