Okay....I met the Unit Production Manager, Jenni, today and I got some more info on what my on set role will be.
Jenni is also acting in the film, so I will sort of be her right hand man, taking over some of her responsabilities of UPM on days where she's needed for acting.
I'll also be contacting the different locations a day or so before we're to shoot there so they know that we're coming. I may also be in charge of calling crew members who are not working ever day to make sure they know their schedule.
I believe I'll be credited as Line Producer, which is pretty freaking cool.
The basic description of a Line Producer is: A producer who is responsible for managing every person and issue during the making of a film.
so I'm not really so much of a "producer", but I should have similar responsabilities as one.
Oh and you know that $200/week pay I mentioned...I shall be getting that, but I also found out that this particular job has a deffered payment of $1000. Now I was shocked when I heard $1000, so I'm not sure if she said the payment was $1000 a week, or $1000 flat for the entire 4 weeks I'll be working. Either way I just feel like....I feel like :dances:
