Large Company-CT-November 2010-Present Day

*New Position Just Recently Created in a Department I Have Never Worked in Before

Monitoring incoming and outgoing feeds for multiple networks to assure that content is clear for broadcast. Working very strange and ever changing hours. Apparently impressing upper managment while staying organized and on top of other assigned projects. Volunteering at a really excellnt yearly event. Living in a small town in the middle of no where, while not exactly putting myself out there in as many ways as I could.


Small Production Company-Boston, MA- 4 Days in October 2010

*Script Supervisor

Responsible for maintaining internal continuity and recording the production unit's daily progress in shooting. Taking notes on each take for editing purposes. Eating craft service while crew set up shots, waiting for the sun to move behind a cloud so shooting could continue, getting lost in the city of Boston,never being untime for work and constantly erasing my poorly hand written notes in the script.



Even Smaller Production Company-New York, NY- 3 Weeks (6 days) in September 2010

*Unpaid "Associate Producer"/"Apparent Fund/Capital Raiser"

Researching topics, people and lifestyles for potential reality docu-shows. Preparing research materials for Producer to write pitches of new shows to networks. Trying to find topics, people and lifestyles based of the Producers, ever chaning, poorly worded, and vague descriptions of what according to outdated memos was what networks wanted. Listening to Producer have very private conversations/arguments very publically in the middle of the work day and office. Answering emails, voicemails and phone calls at all hours of the day night and morning. Not working on the documentary I was hired to work on, and trying to find funding for documentaries and local cable access shows despite having no experience in doing so.
