Assisted with decorating and preparing the set before filming. Running errands to postal service, picking up meal orders for the crew. Locking down area while filming. Helping Art Dept create props and transporting props to set.

Escorting contestants to their trailer briefing on studio regulations, the rules of the game and answering any questions or personnel request. Assigning protective gear taking notes and pictures of wardrobe to ensure continuity. Help with interviews and getting contestants from point A to B.

Picking up and checking equipment, driving myself and the crew members needed for the shoot to and from locations. Setting up camera, lights, microphones and then filming and editing the segment the same day having the final cut exported and uploaded into the company server the next day.

Importing footage and sound, synchronizing, labeling and storing them into files on the computer. Creatively weaving together footage and audio combining them with other media, graphics, effects and subtitles.

I carried equipment around south beach setting up the tripod, camera and microphones at different events happening that weekend for the American Black Film Festival.

A three day convention that I help days before create stage props, lighting boxes, lighting orbs and tracking cables around the conference room for audio and lights. Handled a Canon XL2 connected to a live feed online.
