Assistant Director

Welcome!

I work as an Assistant Director for Film, Television and short-form content. I’m responsible for helping make sure the crew works together to achieve the shoot within the allotted timeframe. : D

I recently did a one-day Masterclass on Assistant Directing at The Bottle Yard Studios for the University of the West of England.

Off the back of that I thought it’d be a fun challenge to write everything there is to know about being an awesome 1st AD in one A4 page. Pls find Draft 1.0 here (notes & additions welcome)
