Director (Owner/Operator)

Staff Position — We're Done Here Productions LLC Details
2/23 – Current

I am the Owner and Operator of this Company. During a successful 3-month program, I provided hands-on Post Production Experience to six Interns. Collaborating with a Producer at the Austin Public Television Station, we also conducted in-studio interview shoots. In addition to production experience, I equipped them for the workforce by assisting in creating strong resumes and guiding them through Texas Film Commission job listings. I also helped establish their presence on platforms like Staff Me Up, Production Hub, and IMDB. I covered on-set Walkie Talkie Etiquette as well. Recognizing that each intern had unique aspirations, I conducted one-on-one sessions to assign specialized tasks that aligned with their career goals. This included training one intern in script writing and script writing software usage, providing web content creator references for another, and focusing on video editing and color grading for one of the interns, among other tailored guidance.
