thanks for your advice! I live near Boston. I forget who told me to do it the way i've been doing it (call production companies, and ask for the production office numbers and ask if they're hiring production assistants). Everytime I have been doing this i've felt like maybe I'm not doing it the right way. So thank you so much for letting me know of a better way of doing it! hahah and i've tried calling back and being persistant, and wow does that piss them off! So I don't really do that. But I really want to be a PA so I probably will start doing it again. Actually, this past friday I called the production office to the film "Bachelor No. 2", I asked if they were hiring and they said to fax my resume in, and I did. I'll call on Monday to see what's going on. They're starting shooting in Boston at the begining of August so I probably won't be hired :(

Alright so I'm a freshman/sophmore (somewhere in the middle) in college. I screwed up my first semester because I absolutely did not want to be there! I love film, and I know that it's what I really want to do. I know that I don't want to be in a classroom studying film. I've always been a hands on learner, I don't learn things successfully unless I'm actually doing it! Which is why I want to be a PA. I've called some production offices and submitted my resume because I have done some things, no PA work though. I can't help but think that being chosen to be a PA is just out of luck, because last March I called the "21" production office, I talked to the guy on the phone and he was wicked nice. I almost had the job, IF I WASN'T IN SCHOOL at the time I would have had it! Can you believe that! So I guess I'm just asking for advice/tips for getting the job and for anyone to share their PA. experiences!
