I did think this job is interesting, but not. The production is messy, the crew of Paris didnt communicate, the crew of HK didnt communicate, the top guys of two teams didnt communicate too. Is it not professional to ask one more question before action? Asking question is to make things clear, to know what they really need. I believe in communication so I studied communication in university.
Another bad thing happened is the resignation of the production manager. She left us in the middle of the job, with 2 colleague she brought in. It’s terrible. I do think that she is a sweet supergirl, but now it’s totally disappointing.
I messed up the relationship with my biggest freelance employer. We will stop our co-operation for a while, or forever. He tried to be a good communicater in the previous jobs, but he tried to over-controlled me in this job. I dont want to act like a slave that I need to know what he is his goal to act before I act for him. I do ask questions very often to make things go straight to its goal, but he dont understand. Sometimes I will arrange wrong, but just because of I dont understand the logistic of how the things go. It’s because I am still too fresh for this BIG job.
It’s still have a happy thing to say. I know some new friends. The props master are the greatest in the world!! They are really professional and work hard for this messy job. The Assistant Art Director who join us just a few day before the shooting is from my university, he is well-trained from a big production house so he can make all the props just within a few days. The Wardrobe assistant can still work hard and silent after the production manager left us. She just tried to bear all the work and I really love her. The Art Director also tried his best to finish the job, I really appreciate. I should say, it’s my luck to work with a group of people who really work very hard to the end of this job.
I just think everything can be even better if everyone can ask more question before act.
