Camera Production Assistant (Photographer/Videographer Assistant) McCann

State Street Global Advisors — Advertising — Chelsea Pictures Details
6/18 – 6/18

I was the assistant to Meeno Paluce, who was tasked with shooting stills & video on set as well as capturing creative and beautiful B-Roll. It was a truly singular experience for me, and I learned more than I ever have on a set. Meeno had worked without an assistant on previous shoot days and was incredibly grateful to have me on to support him. I was also able to shoot both photos & videos whenever Meeno didn't need me directly supporting him.
