On the Set -

I've enjoyed being on the set of various productions both large and small. I've worked as a production assistant, production manager, and on the art team setting up props and things. I've worked on commercials for Toyota, Jeep, Chrystler, HP, the San Jose Sharks, and various other productions. My first PA job was an internship set up by my school in Reno Nevada and it was for Siemens Electronics. After that project I ended up with a steady job at Perpetual Entertainment so I set aside my PA skills to put my education to use in the field I was trained for. A couple years later when I ran into a buddy who went to film school I mentioned I was between jobs and he asked if I'd like to PA for some extra cash untill I got back into another job. I still get a phone call for PA jobs now and then and sometimes if the project sounds like fun I'll use it as an excuse to get away from my computer and get outdoors. (I just worked recently on a TV commercial for the Major League Baseball All Star Game) but most of my time has been devoted to various projects for Safeway lately for which I've done everything from Production Assistant to Photography to Avid Editing to Motion Graphics.
