Virtual Production Assistant

Screencraft Media is an Australian media production company. We're looking for a Virtual Production Assistant to support our Producers remotely, from pre production through to post. This is an admin heavy role, not a creative or on set one, so it suits someone who's organised, a fast learner, and comfortable being handed an open ended task and working out how to get it done.

WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING
• Drafting casting ads and collating talent options (self tapes, reels) for our clients to review.
• Sourcing and researching filming locations and coordinating bookings.
• Sourcing and booking catering for shoot days.
• Making calls and sending emails to coordinate crew, talent, suppliers and locations for shoots.
• Learning and using software and online tools such as Microsoft Office, Scoro, Adobe Indesign and others.
• Writing briefs for our editors and following up on post production jobs.
• General admin support for Producers, including paperwork such as call sheets, deal memos and release forms.

WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR
• A lateral thinker who can take a vague or open ended task and work out how to approach it.
• Fast learner who picks up new software and processes quickly.
• Proactive communicator, comfortable flagging issues, asking questions and following up rather than waiting to be chased.
• Strong written English, comfortable drafting ads, briefs and client facing messages.
• Highly organised with excellent attention to detail.
• Able to manage several productions at once and juggle competing deadlines.
• Comfortable working independently and asynchronously with an Australian team.
• Experience in production, media or a similar admin heavy, deadline driven environment is a bonus, but not required.
