Happy Friday! 🤩 Please, please consider reading all the way to the end. Film and TV Production Assistants, or PAs as we call them, are our industry’s unsung heroes – the first crew members on set and the last to leave, oftentimes working 16 hour days, and most important to note, getting paid the least. PAs are an integral, vital part of our community – navigating actors’ personal and creative needs while also making sure our production days run smooth and timely (and yes, a standard production work day is a minimum of 12 hours). Despite the daily grind, PAs are never without a hustling spirit. They are energetic, curious, and possess a deep passion for the industry. However, PAs are wholly under-valued, underpaid and as such, many PAs are currently not eligible for on-going strike benefits for loss of wages.
If you’re in this industry – I’m calling on all producers, directors, executives, writers and actors – to please join me and consider donating to this fundraiser started by non-profit @goforpasalliance to help PAs cover the lack of wages due to our current strike. I know funds are tight so if you’re financially unable, please tag your favorite PAs you’ve worked with and give them a shout out. 💓 I love this industry deeply and am grateful to be a part of it and we all deserve to thrive within it. #insolidarity. Let’s #spreadkindness
