Default I got a job in film.

Yesterday my dad took me on set for Final Destination 3 to meet the director of photography. It turned out that the locations crew was short handed so the Assistant Loacations Manager asked me if I wanted to work.

Of course I jumped at the opportunity. I was doing the work of a production assistant. This job is anything but glamorous. The job explanation is that PAs make sure that the set is a safe and comfortable environment. So that means we clean, guard, and do many other miscellaneous duties.

I worked about 14 hours and made roughly $160 canadian. At the end of the day the ALM said that as far as he's concerned, I've got a job. Guess all of my working my ass off impressed him. So now I get to work on films in the summer.

It's not the most glorious work but it gets me on set, pays decent, and gives me practical experience.

Plus I can tell people that I worked on Final Destination 3.

Glee.
