Hi! I’m Sophie, a PA / DA from NZ, in GC. Looking for entry-mid level crew work to join the Australian film community. I’m enthusiastic, fun, hardworking, and dedicated.

Lists as:

  • (Emerging) ADs
  • Additional ADs
  • Base / On Set PA
  • Costume Assistant, Runner
  • Director's Assistant
  • PA, Runner
  • Producer's Assistant

My professional experience so far includes: being an in-house production coordinator at a production company for two years in NZ  from 2022-2024 and freelancing to gain invaluable experience across a plethora of smaller, boutique commercial shoots.

I have stepped into on-set roles through this including on set PA, DA (logging), 2nd 2nd AD (extras), 3rd AD (cast), and costume / stylist assist.

Then moved to Australia in 2025, to pursue a bigger industry with an aim to be on TV or features.  I became an attachment on EPiC through Bazmark and Screen Queensland and most recently Nick Waterman’s (dir. How To Make Gravy) Production Assistant, working across commercials, short films, social media, and slate development, until this position moved interstate.

I am looking for on-set or production office work, as my strengths lie in creative conception, managing feasibility and schedules, active work, collaborating as a team, hands on tasks, and creative problem solving.

I love being part of a team, all working towards a common goal, so film is the perfect environment for me.

With a strong background in administration and project management, I had the amazing opportunity to lead the daily operations of a cinema camera rental house (CINE 2481), supporting feature films, documentaries and TVCs.

Working closely with cinematographers and state-of-the-art equipment, I built a reputation as a calm, reliable point of contact for crew and production in this fast-moving environment.

Now seeking on-set roles as Onset PA or 3rd AD. The demands on an AD are what I enjoy most: planning, scheduling, communicating, keeping teams aligned, solving problems under pressure, and delivering the day with grit and love for filmmaking.

My strength lies in coordinating complex resources, logistics and workflows across constantly changing schedules with exceptional adaptability and precision.

Highly proficient in MS Suite, Google Workspace, and project management software. Manual QLD driver’s license. Bilingual (English & Spanish).

Available at short notice for AD attachment, PA or Assistant Director roles.

Lists as:

  • (Emerging) ADs
  • (Emerging) Post Production, VFX, Editing
  • (Emerging) Production
  • PA, Runner
  • Production Assistant

I’m a Gold Coast-based emerging filmmaker with a Bachelor of Film & Television and a hands-on background across production, AD, camera and post. I’ve built my experience through short films, music videos, live sports broadcast, internships and industry events, which has given me love for the moving parts that make a production work. I’m drawn to the pace and problem-solving of production – the mix of planning, communication, pressure, people and quick decisions.

I like being in the thick of it: keeping things organised, helping the crew stay across the day, spotting what needs attention and making sure small things don’t become big things. I’m still early in my professional career, which is exactly why I’m keen to learn from experienced crews, take direction well and contribute in a way that is practical, reliable and positive.

I’m especially interested in production, AD, runner and post-production support roles, and I’m looking to keep building my experience within the Queensland screen industry while becoming the kind of crew member people are happy to have back. I bring energy, common sense and a genuine willingness to step up, ask good questions and help the day move forward. Would love to chat further!

Howdy! I’m Hans an emerging production assistant. I bring experience from multiple professional productions as a PA across TVCs, Screen QLD & AUS funded online series, indie feature films and have been the producer on a couple of short films and music videos.

I’m confident in my knowledge with computers/laptops, Microsoft 365 (Excel, Word, Outlook), Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Lightroom) and have experience assisting Production Coordinators and Line Producers with email  and phone call communications.

With an interest in both the Production & AD departments, I am drawn to challenges that require critical thinking, problem solving and a detail-sensitive mindset, but I also display the people-skills, personality and genuine enthusiasm to work and communicate with cast, crew and background.

These skills were developed through four years working across different high schools as a level 1 IT Support Officer, and three years of studying my Bachelor of Film at Griffith Film School.

When I’m not on set, I work casually as an IT officer at schools and as a freelance photographer and also volunteer my Sundays as a Senior Kids Church Leader of kids aged 4 to 12 years.

Flexible and available to all opportunities and am willing to travel when necessary.

Recent film and media graduate with experience across broadcast production, commercial productions, and administrative coordination.

I have worked as a Broadcast Producer and Camera Operator with live streaming and media teams, supporting fast-paced productions that required strong communication, adaptability, and technical problem-solving skills.

I am particularly passionate about building a career within the Assistant Directing department and production coordination, with a strong interest in the logistical and collaborative side of filmmaking. Through experience on student films, TVCs, and live broadcasts, I have developed the ability to work calmly under pressure while supporting teams across pre-production, on-set operations, and post-production workflows.

Alongside my production work, I have experience in client-facing administrative roles, managing bookings, coordinating schedules, and maintaining organised workflows within busy environments. My professional strengths include organisation, multitasking, stakeholder communication, and maintaining attention to detail in dynamic environments. I am highly adaptable, eager to learn, and thrive in team-oriented settings where collaboration and problem-solving are essential.
