Found this in my boss’s storage. Thought you’d think it was cool.
If you want to be considered a “founder”, you need to use it before then.
50% off forever for founders that helped with the beta.
This is my program. My buddy Tim and I have been developing it for 6 years now. Thanks for the help.
It is embedded in a piece of pottery.
Found this at an estate sale in Los Angeles. It’s lovely. Wondering if anyone recognizes the signature.
We just recently released “Production Assistant 101: Your Essential Guide to Thriving on Set”. Hoping to help film students bridge the gap between film school and what sets are actually like.
If you’ve ever stayed through the credits of a blockbuster and wondered how thousands of people coordinate to make magic happen- or if you’ve ever dreamed of being one of them- my wife Anne and I wrote something for you.
We’ve spent years on major TV and Film sets in Los Angeles, working alongside the best in the field. We noticed a huge gap: there’s plenty of film school theory out there, but very little "boots-on- the-ground" advice for how to actually survive and thrive on a professional set. When you’re just getting started, it can be overwhelming. The most common starting place? PA.
That’s why we wrote Production Assistant 101: Your Guide to Thriving on Set.
What’s inside?
This isn't a textbook; it’s a tactical manual. We cover the stuff they don't teach you in film school:
Set Etiquette: How to handle yourself around A-list talent and high-pressure producers.
Lingo: Understanding "Lock it up," "Martini shot," and everything in between.
Networking: How to turn a day-player gig into a long-term career.
The Reality: The long hours, the hustle, and the absolute thrill of seeing your name in those credits.
The industry can feel like a "members-only" club, but it shouldn't be. We wanted to lower the barrier to entry and give aspiring filmmakers the confidence to walk onto any set (whether it’s an indie short or a network drama) and look like a pro from Day 1.
It’s kind of surreal, but we’re officially live for order on Amazon and B&N, and we’d love for this community to check it out!
