Onset Technical Coordinator

I have just got back from a shoot. I coordinated 5 teams; each team consisted of two Cameramen, Director, and Assistants. The show is a Live TV series and the main challenge was sending the media to the postproduction house without disrupting the shoot, as it was a 24/7 filming. The cameras were Ex3s and the audio was separate. I applied a Grade to all the viewing monitors on set to give the Director an idea of how it would appear.

The media was sent using G-Drives and it had to be meta-dated and accompanied with a text document that describes “what is what”. There were a few hiccups along the way but all in all the media was wrangled properly which really helped the postproduction house to catch up.  

(this should give you an idea of how much media was involved - this is only for the first day of filming )
