What is it?
What is it?
People break into creative careers when they have the right information at the right time. The creative industries run on unspoken rules: etiquette, expectations, and professional behavior you’re rarely taught in a classroom. We teach those rules. We show how the industry really works—what gets noticed, what gets you hired, and what gets you asked back. A new career in film and media starts right here!
"We believe talent and hard work matter—but they’re not enough on their own"
Be a Successful film Production assistant (PA)!
Be a Successful film Production assistant (PA)!
Most people don’t break into film by luck. They start as Production Assistants—and most students have no idea what that job really is.
The Kincade Productions PA Course shows students how sets actually work, what employers expect, and how to get hired without embarrassing themselves on day one.
No fluff. No theory for theory’s sake. Just real‑world knowledge from people who’ve been doing this for decades.

WHAT ARE WE LEARNING: Person on The Street
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT: Learning person-on-the-street (POS) interviews is crucial for videography students because it develops essential skills in interacting with diverse people, capturing authentic reactions, gauging public opinion, building rapport quickly, and creating engaging, human-focused content for news, events, and documentaries, all while mastering portable gear and handling unscripted situations. These skills teach adaptability and storytelling beyond formal settings, making students versatile and capable of finding genuine narratives in real-world environments.
HOW WILL MY TEACHER KNOW WHAT I LEARNED: You will follow along with instruction and use what we have learned to create amazing videos!
