Chances are you are hiring production professionals who are faking it. This is just facts. Most up and coming in the regional markets weren't trained, weren't brought up on set, or in a production office. Production isn't easy... well unless your creative is weak and you have a big budget, then its impossible not to screw it up. And many have figured out, hire a good DP, say yes to everything and "you too can be an exec producer or even a director!" I'll leave you with this. In Wherespot FB group this past week this was a post: A client wants to hire me to produce a few commercial spots in Houston. The project requires Talent, Director, DP, key grip with gear, and multiple locations, so maybe a location scout. So my question is, what is the person called to put all these pieces together? Would that be the Production Manager? I am looking for a person in Houston who can help me put all these assets together and give me price points for these individuals. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Sigh... this was not satire. This person was being hired to "produce" for a client, and literally asked for help "producing" the job without knowing what he was being asked to do or how.

Want to hit the ground running with your roll out? 🏃🏃♀️ The Real Estate team at Greenwoods Legal LLP have been lucky enough to help several operators (including the wonderful PURESEOUL • Korean Beauty) with their roll outs over the past 12 months and here’s three things successful roll outs have in common: 🛍️ - build a team, you’re going to need an excellent team behind you if you want to open a store every 4-6 weeks. As a minimum we’d recommend an agent, legal (👋), project management and HR. 🛍️ - know what’s important to you. As with all real estate transactions compromise is the name of the game. Nail down your must haves and focus your energy on those; and 🛍️ - put processes in place, transactions can be all consuming in the run up to completion so having standard processes that kick in are an absolute must if you want to maintain control. PureSeoul have the post completion processes nailed - Harry Rudolf completed on their latest store in Brighton at 12:17 last Friday and half an hour later the vinyls were up and the store had been announced on their TikTok. Fantastic work Mr. Leslie Tang and Will Mabbett - here’s to many more. #newopening #landlordandtenant #retailproperty #retail #commercialrealestate

You Are Not for Everybody—and That's a Good Thing In the world of Post Production Supervision, here's a little truth bomb: you are not for everybody—and you shouldn't be. Every project is different, every creative team has its own dynamic, and every director and producer brings their unique vision. As Post Supervisors, our job is to adapt, guide, and deliver—but not at the cost of losing what makes us us. The beauty of this industry is that we all have distinct strengths, approaches, and working styles. Some teams thrive on structure, while others value flexibility. Some projects require a technical wizard; others need a master of creative collaboration. If you're not the right fit for one project, it simply means the perfect one is still out there. The key is to align with clients who resonate with your individuality and value your specific skillset. So, embrace the fact that you won’t be everyone’s cup of tea—but for the right team, you'll be the perfect match. It’s this authenticity that builds trust and forges the kinds of creative partnerships that lead to truly great work. #PostProduction #CareerGrowth #IndividualityMatters #CreativePartnerships

To my Tampa network, let me know if I can make an introduction

Opening up a new search for Chief of Staff to help me of special projects across the Corridor portfolio. You can view this role as working at a holding company to help manage various investments and creative projects. Would be a tour-of-duty of 12+ months (where we check-in at the end of the period to renew or transition) with a 30-day trial period for both sides. I will even help you incubate an idea. This is a flexible role — it can be part-time, full-time, or project-based. Remotely from anywhere. This is not an EA role (I work with an assistant already). Responsibilities Investments — Manage alternative investment opportunities (sourcing and vetting), including angel investing (startups), co-founder relations with our studio, and other non-traditional asset classes. This would be a good fit for someone that is analytical. Content — Manage content and production across social channels (Twitter, Podcast, Newsletter, Youtube), including a network of specialists. This would be a good fit for someone that is both creative and operational. Special Projects — Manage special projects that don’t fit neatly into a box, which can range from running real estate projects to incubating an idea. This would be a good fit for someone that is project management oriented. What I’m Looking For Organized, high attention-to-detail, and enjoys designing systems. Driven, proactive, and autonomous. You should be able to manage your own projects. Positive. Strong collaboration. When we get on the ice together, it’s like Gretzky and Kurri in the 80s Link with more info on how to apply below 😁
