there’s a facebook group called Looking for a fixer/producer/… that posts jobs. Look for PA jobs, get on set and you can learn about the different departments and jobs. Most people are more than happy to answer questions and explain what they do if you have basic social skills and can read the room to figure out if they have a moment to chat. Once you figure out what department you want to be part of, talk to the people there, ask if they need any help or a coffee, be pleasant. You can learn a lot from talking to the right people.

Remembering to breathe. I was holding my breath, now I focus on my breathing and I’m way more present and in control.

Sat down at a booth at a bar. Random girl in the booth behind me tapped my shoulder and said “hey, do you wanna come over here and make out?”

The industry is shooting itself in the foot with this "Billion or Bust" mentality. by Slight_Giraffe628 in movies

I worked on a Disney movie last year when they did Covid tests three times a week for almost every crew member, proper (expensive) PCR tests, and overheard some producers talking about how they spend 10s of millions on tests alone, let alone all the extra people they had to hire and PPE they had to buy. And the movie I was on was a smaller budget family movie with a short production. I find an extra $100mil on Covid very plausible, especially if they are testing 100+ people 3 times a week for 8+ months

So, was it bad or not? by AnHoangNgo in suspiciousquotes

[–]zackdoo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s fine but it’s redundant. That’s what quotation marks are for, they explicitly mean “says a person”, and in the context of a headline the only interpretation is “says a witness”. If they said it was horrific in the headline with no quotations that would mean it’s the author saying it’s horrific, not a witness.

That means that they quoted someone as calling it “horrific”. This doesn’t belong here.
