Summary

Hello! My name is Savannah Sivert. I just graduated with my Master's in Filmmaking. A majority of my experience has been short term because I was in school. The longest production I've been on was a 20 day shoot for a feature film. Now that I have graduated I really want to start working longer term gigs. I love helping to make production go smoothly. From Production Assistant to First AD, I am happy to do whatever to ensure we get the best possible film in the time we are given.
