What Does A Development Assistant Do?

Development assistant

Becoming assistants to development executive or producer is a good entry level role, which mainly involves reading scripts, novels, blogs, writing script reports and taking notes during story lining sessions.

Also a development assistant may work in a productions development process, where they are responsible for providing administrative services to the development team. They often conduct research, analyze data and compile reports. They should possess strong writing abilities and be detail-oriented. It is essential to have good interpersonal skills and maintain a level of professionalism.

This is great entry level position to learn how a film or TV show develops from conception to production.
