OBJECTIVE AND SKILLS

I am looking for work in film production. I have worked as a Unit Manager, Producer’s Assistant, Lighting Assistant, Art Department Assistant and P.A/runner. I have also Produced a short film.
My wish is to be instrumental in telling stories that should be told. My short term goals are to become more knowledgeable technically particularly with lighting(gaffer assist) and to work in the Production department in the running and organisation of the project.
I have recently completed work as Unit Manager and Producer’s Assistant on an independent feature film “Vanished”, a psychological thriller, scheduled for screening early next year. I am giving the Producer Leah Hallis’ contact details to be used as a reference.
My organisational and inter-personal skills are exceptional. I am a dedicated and focused worker that gets along well with people. I have a passion for film production. Cameras used include Canon XL1, DVC Pro, Bolex and Arriflex. I have basic skills with Final Cut Pro, Media 100 and Avid.
