The production manager on an independent production wears many hats in contrast to a commercial production. This workshop will cover: being hired as a volunteer PM, budgeting and breakdowns: setting up the production where ever that may be; hiring a volunteer crew with the director; workspace organization; production scheduling; locations, daily productions reports; location management; petty cash, deal memos; cast contracts, craft services and much, much more!
INSTRUCTOR'S BIOGRAPHY
Donovan Richard joined the NB filmmakers cooperative in 2003 and worked on several projects as a 1st AD, Production Manager, Grip, Sound and Production Designer.
He has produced and directed Dead Flies (2005), Rebecca's Grave (2007-2008) and his most recent films are in post-production: XIII and Delivrance (2009-2010).
The experiences Donovan has accumulated over the years taking all the different workshops and working on numerous member shoots, has helped him develop a very good foundation for the art of independent filmmaking. Don hopes to pass along what he has learned to other eager filmmakers who wish to produce film projects in the future.
