Amy Grumbling

As co-producer, I consulted on the story, coordinated shoots, kept track of releases and budget, conducted interviews, worked with the director through the final phases of production, the edit, and the online and mix, as well as submitting to festivals and helping to arrange special screenings of the film.

I created a commissioned documentary about the putting up an adult circus/variety show in a wooden tent on an empty lot in Times Square. I created the story and edited this 45-minute verite documentary, following employees and performers, from the tent construction to opening night, to the show's closing,

I line-produced a documentary for Takepart Productions/Participant Media about people who lost friends, family, and co-workers on 9/11. I budgeted the project, handled releases, permits, coordinated travel, food, and lodging, arranged shoots, booked gear, and was in charge of the project through the actualization and wrap of production.

I shot second camera, offloaded media, organized and logged footage in Port-au-Prince, villages, and tent-cities in Haiti to document rebuilding project after the 2011 earthquake. In NYC I assistant edited, and helped structure early version of the film.

I interviewed parents at a charter school to look for real people with compelling stories about public education in NYC. I interviewed for several days, took photos and wrote summaries of my top candidates for subjects in the film, and delivered my recommendations to the Production Manager.

I coordinated across all aspects of production, including creating call sheets, coordinating cast and crew, ordering props, meals, writing POs, assisting with actualizing the budget, etc.

Budgeted, produced, liaised with clients on the official in-store, publicity, and archival shoot of the Spring/Summer 2008 runway shows for client Banana Republic/Gap, Inc. Edited sizzle reels and full runway videos screened online and in flagship Banana Republic stores.
