Production Coordinator
Annie Brunner is a currently an Associate Producer for Studio RX.
Currently, I am continuing to strengthen my overall production skills through my Associate Producer position at Studio RX. I manage short-term and long-term projects from start to finish on a daily basis, creating and maintaining budgets and production schedules, hiring freelance crew, and organizing pre and post production calls. I manage the studio and overall team schedule to ensure that projects are fully staffed and completed efficiently. I provide on set assistance on shoot days by coordinating catering, building access, and acting as a stand-in crew member where needed (grip, gaffer, audio, etc.). I also create and manage SOPs for the department, create guides for clients, and increase department efficiencies. Since becoming a part of the team, I have helped enhance capacity to undertake additional projects with our department projected to complete 125% of projects year over year.
I have the ability to learn quickly and apply everything I learn into future tasks. Through my position, I have further developed excellent teamwork, time management and communication skills in order to accomplish the goals for each project. I have also learned how to adapt to situations quickly and work on problem-solving while on set.
Adapting is a large part of working in the media industry, and switching to remote learning in the Spring of 2020 through the Fall of 2020 has allowed me to practice being adaptable. I learned how to continue to create and share content despite not being on campus, which I have carried over into my work today.
I have developed stronger leadership skills by fully diving into the production coordinator role and learning the ins and outs of Studio RX to better communicate with clients and producers. My current role and all of my previous roles at MLB Network and in college will continue to help me strengthen my leadership skills in all future endeavors.
Along with these skills, I am a very responsible and respectful individual who takes pride in her work. My role as Associate Producer has furthered my ability to take responsibility and to develop my skills as a leader of my co-workers and clients. My experiences have helped me enhance my communication and leadership skills as well as work with my colleagues on a variety of different levels.
