Focal Press Running the Show: The Essential Guide to Being a First Assistant Director

Whether it's a crew of two hundred shooting a cast of thousands on horseback, or a crew of twelve filming one person in a room, each and every successful movie production requires a strong First Assistant Director (AD) at its helm. In this new and updated edition of Running the Show: The Essential Guide to Being a First Assistant Director from Focal Press, veteran First AD Liz Gill walks you through the entire filmmaking process through the perspective of the First AD, from pre-production, shoot, wrap, and everything in-between.
