Script Coordinator

Sep 2013 - Sep 2014
Proofed, edited, and distributed upwards of 130 script drafts. Responsible for examining story continuity at the script level. Cooperated with the Assistant Directors and other production workers to ensure such continuity in an extremely complex shoot (with 9 episodes cross-boarded together throughout the season). Attended and took notes on all production meetings for the sake of the showrunners/executive producers. In Season 2, the Writers' Assistant duties coincided with script coordinator work, prompting the hiring of a separate Script Coordinator at my request. I remained in the writers' room as the writers' assistant. Show less
