About Production Assistants
Production Assistants (PAs) are the backbone of any well-run video production. They handle the logistical and support tasks that keep shoots running on schedule — loading and unloading equipment, managing talent flow, coordinating parking and location access, handling craft services, distributing call sheets, and solving problems before they become delays. Assignment Desk PAs are experienced production professionals who understand the pace and demands of professional video shoots. They anticipate crew needs, manage gear, wrangle talent, handle paperwork, and serve as the go-to problem solver on set. Whether your production is a single-camera interview or a multi-day event, a good PA makes everything run smoother. Our Production Assistants are available in all 24 markets and can be booked as standalone crew or added to any existing crew package. All PAs are W2 employees covered by workers' compensation insurance, which means you get reliable, insured support without the overhead of hiring freelancers directly.
