Position Overview:

Video Production Assistant

First thing’s first, production assistants (PAs) do not require formal education. They work on a movie or video set in a support role, providing forms of assistance to crews and various production departments. Tasks may include helping with set construction, keeping objects and wardrobes in order, and generally performing office duties. They can also be set to specifically help out an actor – bringing them to set, collecting or shipping packages for them, or handing out scripts. Some PAs can even specialize in certain areas of the production like costume design, arts. They should be ready to work irregular hours, especially early mornings, late evenings, and weekends.

Company Overview:

We believe that this company does not really need an introduction. Put in business terms, the Wat Disney Company is the world’s largest media conglomerate who brought you some of your favorite films and later TV shows through Disney Channel and acquiring the ABC television network. They just launched their own streaming service, Disney+, which already hosts a critically acclaimed series. The company is praised for a great workplace campus and benefits like free visits to its amusement parks. The history of the company along with its creative environment and childish nostalgia just happens to bring out smiles in everyone working there.
