Upcoming Events
Advanced P.A. Masterclass
Saturday, March 9 | 9 am – 5 pm | $99
This hands-on workshop is perfect if you’re a current or aspiring PA (Production Assistant) wanting more skills and experience! Since many PAs have never worked with certain kinds of lights or other on-set tools, this day-long class is presented by the Boulder County Film Commission and taught by industry professionals that have honed their skills over years; the class is tailor-made to get you knowledgeable and familiar with essential tools of the trade.
