  • Steinhart Runaway Hollywood Chapter3
    Chapter 3 Lumière, Camera, Azione! the personnel and practices of hollywood’s mode of international production as hollywood filmmakers gained more experience abroad over the years, they devised various production strategies that could be shared with one another. A case in point: in May 1961, Vincente Minnelli was preparing the production of Two Weeks in Another Town (1962), part of which he planned to shoot in Rome. Hollywood flmmaker Jean Negulesco communicated with Minnelli, ofering some advice on work- ing in Italy, where Negulesco had directed portions of Tree Coins in the Fountain (1954) and Boy on a Dolphin (1957) and at the time was producing his next flm, Jessica (1962): I would say that the most difcult and the most important condition of mak- ing a picture in Italy is to adapt yourself to their spirit, to their way of life, to their way of working. A small example: Tis happened to me on location. As I arrive on the set and everything is ready to be done at 9 o’clock—the people are having cofee. Now, your assistant also is having cofee—and if you are foolish enough to start to shout and saying you want to work, right away you’ll have an unhappy crew and not the cooperation needed for the picture. But if you have cofee with them, they will work for you with no time limit or no extra expense.1 Negulesco’s letter underscores a key lesson that Hollywood moviemakers learned overseas when confronted with diferent working hours, production practices, and cultural customs.

  • Production Job Descriptions
    New Mexico State Film Office / 2017 Industry Job Descriptions ABOVE-THE-LINE and BELOW-THE-LINE “Above-the-line” (ATL) is an industry term derived from where the money is budgeted for Writers, Directors, Producers and Principal Talent. This term refers to job positions that are associated with the creative and/or financial control of a film or multimedia project, not the technical aspects. “Below-the- line” (BTL) is an industry term associated with the “fixed” costs. Examples include studio fees, equipment rental, travel costs and crew rates. Therefore, BTL crew refers to the technical crew hired for the length of the production, often paid hourly or weekly for that time period. These individuals do not have primary creative or financial control of the project, nor do they receive residuals. BTL DEPARTMENT HIERARCHY Starting at the top, the Director hires the Production Designer and the Director of Photography (DP) while the Producer hires the Line Producer and/or Unit Production Manger (UPM). The Production Designer, DP and the Line Producer/UPM then go about hiring their Department Heads, Supervisors and Keys. The Key is considered the top-ranked technical, BTL position in a department. In some departments, the Key is referred to as a Coordinator; in locations, it is the Manager and in camera, it is the Operator. The Key hires the “Best Boy” (or a Foreman) who is second-in-command, acts as an operations manager and hires the rest of the crew in their department. There is only one person hired in the Key and Best position in each department in a regional location (such a New Mexico).
