You Better Recognize! A talented supervisor or manager is astute enough to understand that an employee is not defined by his or her job title/description. I once worked at a film production company where I was promoted three times in six months. I started out answering phones and making coffee and was soon the Visual Effects Coordinator for the biggest budget IMAX film to that date. Why? Because the producer (who went on to found RealD 3-D) could see that my skills of working hard, doing things quickly and always saying ‘yes’ to what I was asked would translate into the 60+ hours per week on a film set. How could a ‘receptionist’ become an integral part of a multi-million dollar production? How could a production assistant for a home shopping network become the Operations Director of the network in less than a year? Yep… same guy. Thanks to supervisors, managers, executives and corporate presidents who could all assess talent and not be confined by a title. So, hiring managers… take a closer look at that resume from the person that doesn’t have the exact qualifications or job title you’re looking for. Dig deeper. Look for qualities, talents and skills rather than a direct 1:1 correlation. A more well-rounded candidate might just be available.

How to go from a 16-year-old production assistant to opening your own multi million-dollar creative studio in 4 years: I started working as a production assistant at age 16, but I always knew I wanted to be a producer. So I had to start working my way up … from the very bottom. The first thing I did? Start turning down jobs as a production assistant and look for gigs that would get me to the next level. At this point, that meant hunting for “production coordinator” jobs. So I became a production coordinator. After being a production coordinator, I knew I needed to get into production managing. So I became a production manager. From there, I focused on getting into “line producing”— the next step up. Again, I turned down the stability of production managing jobs whenever possible, giving me the capacity to accept more line-producing work. So I became a line producer. This process repeated over the years — work hard to prove myself and then take the leap to get to the next level. And finally, at the age of 20, I started my own creative studio, SixTwentySix. Through every transition, from one role to the next, I consciously took the risk of losing work to make space for what I really wanted. I’ll be honest, it was a pretty uncomfortable place to be. But so many of the founders I look up to have said the same thing: Want to accelerate your own growth? Get comfortable being uncomfortable.

Film Producer, Film Director, Film Editor, Visual Effects Enthusiast, Screenwriter - Creative Lead at Xtrim Studios Ltd.
As a FILM PRODUCER, hiring the best crew is a blend of art and science. It’s not just about finding the most talented individuals, but about assembling a team that can work seamlessly together, understand the creative vision, and navigate the inevitable challenges that come with production. Here’s what I’ve learned: 1. Experience Matters: Look for crew members with a proven track record, but don’t discount emerging talent. Fresh perspectives can bring new energy to a project. 2. Cultural Fit: Your crew should align with the project’s vision and the working culture. A shared sense of purpose drives better collaboration and creativity. 3. Passion Over Paycheck: Those who are truly passionate about their craft will go the extra mile. They’re the ones who will stay late, push through challenges, and contribute beyond their job description. 4. Communication Skills: A great crew doesn’t just follow instructions—they bring ideas to the table. Effective communication is key to ensuring everyone is on the same page and working toward the same goal. 5. Network Smartly: Build relationships within the industry. Often, the best crew members come through referrals from trusted colleagues. 6. Trust Your Instincts: Sometimes, it’s about gut feeling. If someone feels like the right fit, they probably are. Producing a film is a team effort, and the crew you hire can make or break your project. Choose wisely, and you’ll create something truly special.

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

When I was working my first Production Assistant gig, I learned one lesson that has applied to basically ever other position I've worked in my career. "The smaller the production, the larger the role you need to play." Now this was told to me while I was a PA on a 40+ person television production, but it has stayed true across every project I've worked on since. This doesn't mean that working on small projects or as a part of a large organization is bad. Both environments can be fantastic for you in the right scenario. To me, this phrase helps you understand where you efforts will serve your team the best. For me now, it's taught me that I enjoy working in small to mid-size operations. These are the spaces that allow my natural desire to broaden my horizons and pick-up new skills to also be incredibly beneficial to the team as a whole. If you prefer to master the tasks at the core of your position, and add value by pushing further down one specific area of expertise, then maybe being part of a large operation is a better fit. Just my experience reflecting on the variety of environments I've been in. What do you think?
