Have you wanted to work on a film set? Don't know where to start? Goodwill offers a FREE Production Assistant Training Program that thoroughly prepares you for film and TV industry jobs. Taking the class will increase your chances of getting a job on a New Mexico production. In this success story, we interviewed one graduate; here's Shannon U's story.
Shannon took the Goodwill Production Assistant Training class in June of 2021. The training class was appealing to her because, like many people, she couldn't invest the time or money to take a course that lasted an entire semester. She enjoyed that the class was a thorough crash course. Shannon learned the essentials, such as walkie-talkie use, reading the call sheet, and lockups. She was immediately offered multiple jobs and chose to work on Outer Range, an American science fiction mystery-thriller filmed in Santa Fe. Shannon explained that the work comes and goes. You might work for two months and then have a three-week break before resuming "day playing" on new projects. She recommends that new PAs be extremely flexible, reliable, and display a good attitude. Typically, PAs who are excited to learn and grow are the ones that get picked.
