Production Assistant, From The Front Row, a local independent production that highlights Wisconsin music venues by capturing interviews and live concerts, packaged into 30-minute episodes for national broadcast on public television. In our first season (scheduled for debut in Fall/Winter of this year!), we visited locations like The Cardinal Bar, The Overture Center, The Sh*tty Barn, and Olbrich Botanical Gardens.
We have an upcoming shoot for our second season at Cave of the Mounds on Thursday, June 18th, and have a couple openings for Production Assistants (PAs). This is an opportunity for students to experience what a live capture event is like, especially in a space with such unique challenges as a cave.
Call time: 2pm at the Visitor Center
Duration: 9 hours (out at 11pm)
Duties:
- Helping load heavy lighting equipment into the cave
- Capturing behind-the-scenes photo and video
- Supporting the production team as we set up, film and break down the shoot
Pay: Unpaid
We will provide dinner from Qdoba and a craft table.
