We’ve all been there at some point in our filmmaking career. Starting out at the bottom of the totem pole learning how a film set works and what departments we want to work in while trying to build a resume. Generally that takes the form of being a Production Assistant, and whether you’re getting ready to PA on your first set or are 10 years into your career and PA occasionally on projects there are a number of tools that will not only make your job easier but help you catch the attention of other people on the crew as someone who is serious and can be depended upon.
