ABSTRACT

Production is the stage of the process in which the producer’s multitasking skills are truly tested. The producer is the glue that holds everything together. He or she has to work a significant number of hours in order to successfully juggle the many responsibilities. On most projects, when production ramps up, portions of the show are still in pre-production. The producer needs to be on top of all steps from a budgetary, creative, and technical standpoint in addition to taking care of all of the project’s external needs, such as marketing and consumer products.
