UNLOCKING SUCCESS AS AN OFFICE PRODUCTION ASSISTANT IN FILM & TELEVISION
soup to nuts
Every line producer and UPM should read this book and keep it as a reference. It covers “soup to nuts” about production department infrastructure.
Schools that teach filmmaking should make this mandatory reading. This is what’s under-the-hood of the car.
With our industry growing so fast, we are faced with more people in key positions with less mentored experience. Even for an experienced soul like myself, it’s a great resource.

nuance
It captures the nuance of the job that is nearly impossible to teach. It’s not technically a hard job but so much of it involves critical thinking and good judgment.

essential
This book would be extremely essential in introducing the office PA world to newcomers (and even a refresher for some) who want to venture into the production office sphere. I thought the inclusion of the graphs, charts and illustrations were a nice addition.
