Hi, I'm due to be the first assistant director on a friend's short student film in January 2014. I have limited experience of being on a film set and am used to being a one-man crew. However, this is the first time I've been approached to work on a slightly more professional level and I'm curious as to what exactly it's like for a first AD. I was hoping that there could be someone to lend advice/experience/tips into what makes a good first AD.
The film is ten minutes long and focuses on a heist, inspired mostly by the opening bank robbery scene in in The Dark Knight. There will be a fair bit of action, coverage, and practical effects to deal with over the four day shoot.
Thanks again!
