Getting it Done: The Ultimate Production Assistant Guide

by Joshua Friedman

Only a fool would enter a film set without having first read this production manual. There is no faster way up the ladder than being prepared and no faster way out the door than by screwing up. This manual was created by a working PA as a tutorial for those starting out, or a reference guide for seasoned filmmakers. Getting It Done offers information on the many departments involved in a film production, the day-to-day operations of the set, the paperwork involved, and much more. This is the book that will get you started and keep you working at your very best.

[Adam Smith]

Detailed, well-written, and insightful. There are precious few books on the subject, so I'm grateful that this one was so good. Time will tell how practical the information is, but so far I have been able to put what I've learned to good use. What more can you really ask for?

I'm reading the Kindle eBook version of this title. Its really interesting I'll give a full review once I'm done.
