Directors, Stop Stressing Yourself—Hire a Producer or a Production Manager! Let’s be honest: being a director is already a huge job. Adding producing on top of that? You’re setting yourself up for unnecessary stress. Producing is not just something you can wing it’s about handling money, schedules, contracts, and the million other things that come with running a production. When you’re busy dealing with all that, how do you focus on directing? Your creativity will always take a hit because your mind is stuck on logistics. Why put yourself through that? If hiring a producer feels like too much, fine. But at least get a project manager or coordinator who can step in and handle the details. You don’t need to be the one solving every problem or figuring out the finances—that’s not your job. Your job is to direct and bring your creative vision to life. So, save yourself the stress and stop being stingy with your team. Trust me, great projects are never done solo—it’s always a team effort. What do you think? Let’s talk about it in the comments! #Producing #Directing #filmaking #Filmmakers #Productionmangers

Most of you know me as a filmmaker, but for the past three years, I've had the pleasure of working at Picture Head, the world's largest trailer finishing company. I was brought on board to launch their first-ever Premiere finishing division. Building a global team from scratch has been an absolute blast. We crafted a new workflow and landed Amazon as a major client. If you've seen trailers for Lord of the Rings, Arcane, or Air on your TV or smartphone, that's likely our handiwork. The folks at Picture Head are truly top-notch at what they do. I've honed some new skills you wouldn't typically associate with a documentary director, like integrating a global workforce, designing a communication system for 300 employees, streamlining financial workflows, and developing a post-production pipeline that churns out hundreds of files daily. With the pipeline now running, the job is complete. It's an interesting time out there, so I'm open to many things. I'm searching for documentary work, but I also have a lot of knowledge in post-production, corporate optimization, and even launching a business. Have something in mind, I'd love to hear it. #Filmmaker #Documentary #PostProduction #CorporateOptimization #BusinessGrowth #Collaboration #NewOpportunities

What an excellent question posed by the Amazon MGM Studios #Socialmedia team. My response? #TheBoys of course. Behind the scenes is the only place you can really gain a great perspective into how a show is really created. The average person has no idea what it actually takes to put together a show or film. The labor. The art. The creative minds. All the collaboration between dozens of departments. All to provide the audience with joy and laughter, heartache and pain, thought-provoking and sometimes #bloodgutsandgore oh my, entertainment. If I was behind the scenes of #TheBoys what would I be doing? A few roles come to mind. 📆 Production Scheduler: After completing the New Movie Magic Scheduling course, I know I would excel at this. Afterall, it's just like Tetris. 🎬 Producer: Overseeing and collaborating with all aspects of production and production departments. Skills for a producer are similar to a Project Manager. Skills like Management, Communication, Creative, Troubleshooting/Problem-solving, Financial, and Business skills to name a few. 🤝 Production Engagement/Enrichment Program Director: This role is meant to ensure and create a safe, collaborative and diverse production environment. Acting as a trusted partner by building business relationships with all members of production from the janitorial/catering staff all the way to Executive Producers, Showrunners, etc. Developing a space where all team members feel physical, mental, and psychological safety on a production set. Connecting with team members to develop a community of collaboration and creative freedom. *Not sure if something like this exists on a production set. Would love to know. #opentowork #openforwork #opentonewopportunities #film #television #filmandtelevision #entertainment #passion #recruiters #recruiting #journeyoflearning #projectmanager #projectmanagement #programmanager #employeeengagement #employeeenrichment #storytelling #creativity #momentsthatmatter #culture #businessoperations #marketing #productionoperations #producer #scheduler #productionengagementprogramdirector #creativeproducer #productionengagement #primevideo Prime Video & Amazon MGM Studios #amazonmgmstudios #amazonstudios #sonypictures Sony Pictures Entertainment #warnermedia WarnerMedia #warnerbrothersdiscovery Warner Bros.

Chances are you are hiring production professionals who are faking it. This is just facts. Most up and coming in the regional markets weren't trained, weren't brought up on set, or in a production office. Production isn't easy... well unless your creative is weak and you have a big budget, then its impossible not to screw it up. And many have figured out, hire a good DP, say yes to everything and "you too can be an exec producer or even a director!" I'll leave you with this. In Wherespot FB group this past week this was a post: A client wants to hire me to produce a few commercial spots in Houston. The project requires Talent, Director, DP, key grip with gear, and multiple locations, so maybe a location scout. So my question is, what is the person called to put all these pieces together? Would that be the Production Manager? I am looking for a person in Houston who can help me put all these assets together and give me price points for these individuals. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Sigh... this was not satire. This person was being hired to "produce" for a client, and literally asked for help "producing" the job without knowing what he was being asked to do or how.

As I was watching the documentary #musicbyjohnwilliams 🎼 , it dawned on me... Hiring Managers = the director Talent Acquisition = the composer The relationship between a director and a composer is a crucial part of the filmmaking process. It's essential for the composer to understand the director's vision. Directors rely on composers to enhance the emotional depth and storytelling of a film through music. We all have that soundtrack we love. One that pulls us back to scenes in our favourite movies. The Talent team is the composer to the Hiring Manager. We bring to life the role at hand, shaping the tone and mood of the position through making meaningful connections, educating, and inspiring. A successful hiring partnership transforms a job into an opportunity. It transforms an interview process into an experience. It creates an employer brand that serves as the soundtrack, drawing people back to watch the movie. The moral of the story: Understanding eachothers vision takes time. Before recruitment is launched, invest time upfront to your job kick-offs. Get really aligned on the vision and execution. Build trust in each other. The results will come ⚡ #Hiring #TalentAcquisition

How to Be A Hollywood Assistant in Film and TV https://ift.tt/9wE5hyK Chances are if you’re reading No Film School, you've contemplated moving to Hollywood at some point in your life. If you want to write, direct, or edit, Hollywood is full of opportunities for you. It’s where most people get their foot in the door, and where the lucky few build lasting careers. Or maybe you wanted to move here because you were a huge fan of Entourage. Whatever the case may be, when you come to this town, there’s a good chance you’ll start at the bottom. That means working your way up as one of the many tenacious, heroic, and completely underpaid Hollywood assistants. I was one of those assistants for several years, and I thought it would be great to write a useful survival guide for people starting within the industry. Aside from my own experiences, I was hoping that people could post their own in the comments, or email me at Jason@NoFilmSchool.com and we can add them anonymously into the Crazy Hollywood Assistant Stories portion of this post. These are my stories, and my methods of navigating the business, but here at No Film School we want to encourage anyone and everyone to email me with their stories and survival guides, as an assistant, gaffer, director, or whatever job it was you have survived! So without further ado... How to Be A Hollywood Assistant in Film and TV I moved to Hollywood in 2012 and got a job shortly after that at Scott Free. I was a runner, then worked my way up to assist the president, Michael Costigan. He left Scott Free to open his producing shingle, and I went with him. I stayed on as his assistant until Shovel Buddies sold, and I’ve been writing ever since. That sounds like a happy Hollywood story, but it’s also a rare one. Lots of assistants stay on desks and try to work their way up in the industry to become executives. Now, this works differently for each company, agency, studio, and in reality. I tried to generally assess what it looks like to rise to the top as an assistant. The Hollywood Assistant Ladder Runner / Mailroom Assistant to a junior exec Assistant to a higher level exec Executive Assistant Coordinator / Story Editor Creative Executive Director (sometimes Manager fits in here) Vice President President Principal As you traverse up the assistant ladder, the opportunities get slimmer. There are only a limited amount of companies big enough to have multiple Creative Execs, and then from there, things get whittled down even further. So if you’re trying to be an assistant that rises in Hollywood into an executive role, good luck. The only way you’re going places with the right amount of hard work, connections, luck, and being legitimately good at your job. The Hollywood Assistant Disclaimer Portion Okay, before you proceed, I want to get something out of the way. When I first moved to Los Angeles, I met with a few execs. One of them, who shall remain nameless, told me that ...
