THE WORK

THE BOOK

MEDIA FREELANCING 101

When it comes to production, I wrote the book! An in-depth guide to getting your first gig as a PA, being noticed as the best PA on the planet, and learning how to utilize the tools to get the next gig, and all the while, as a PA, you participate at the smorgasbord that is the production process, and working with the professionals on every level. Step by step plans from sending emails to the people who actually do the hiring, to understanding and executing paperwork correctly ( lots of forms and templates included), to keeping current with the industry. Lots of wildly useful information, quotes from well-known filmmakers, templates, and forms……as well as tips and clues for using the PA platform to find and pursue a career in the production arts.

ABOUT ME

YOU HAVE A NARRATIVE TO SHAPE. I HAVE SOME EXCELLENT TOOLS FOR THE JOB.

You want to bring it from the page, the back of the cocktail napkin, the Powerpoint display into life.?

awesome, hen, I am in, what, wanna know my superpower?

I listen, I think, I plan and embrace kismet, I bring joy to the process.

I support the director, production company, and clients by peering into the future and finding paths to streamline the process and steer around the trolls…..always keeping the lid slightly ajar on the rigors of the process so we have plenty of magick and creativity on the shoot day.
