This film resonates very well with me.
I am also an assistant, working as a film and television photography assistant in the video department of an e-commerce company. The things to do are trivial, and cleaning things is a normal thing. The piles of pots and pans used in food supplement products, the baby bottles used by the baby during the mold shooting, and the dirty clothing. In addition, it also involves moving heavy objects-every time you take a photo shoot, there are a bunch of photographic equipment and props that you need to bring. You also need to help coax your baby when you are shooting, in order to mobilize the baby in the best state.
I'm used to obedience, I'm used to saying "OK", and I don't know how to write the word rejection. Trained by the filmmaker, planned aggressively, and yelled at by the master, it is the general existence at the bottom of the company's food chain. It was very hard and humble. I came home very late every day. I was so tired that I lost my temper to my boyfriend. Moreover, I haven't seen the sunset for a long time.
The reason why I haven't left is because I want to mix up the qualifications in this company. After all, I have persisted with all the hard work before, so I can't work as an assistant for more than a year, right?
At work, the most common thing is: you are doing a lot of things that are not part of your responsibilities.
When the production is busy, you have to run errands to get a lunch for a group of people; when the director is thirsty, you chuckle and rush to carry bottled water; if the art is too busy, you have to help set the scene and clean up; if the agent is not, you just Have to communicate with the external model. By the way, the purchase of the props that will be used in the shooting is also you. The assistant is the one who does so many trivial tasks.
