Video Interview with Robin
Thursday 12th March 2009.
Today I interviewed Robin Johnson an Associate Producer at TwoFour about his job, previous experiences and what interested him about the media industry.
The most beneficial thing I got from Robin’s Interview was to develop a range skills in order to be flexible, that way you can become more employable within the industry. I personally think this is great advice to anyone wanting a career within the media, just because the more skills you have, the more opportunities there will be in the future. There is always something new to learn, especially in a fast-changing world like the media.
The other comment that stuck in my mind after the interview "Was never complain!" the reason this stuck in my mind was the last few days I found the logging has become fairly boring …but it’s real work, in a real production company and something everyone has to do in the early days of their career. You need to start at the bottom of the career ladder and work your way up…and do what every it takes to get a break in this fast-moving industry!

1 x link, 1 x video. Great interview BUT he says he is an AP = Associate Producer, In the title you have him as PA = Production Assistant. BIG DIFFERENCE!!!!!!!! This is the usual progression from the bottom rung to the top: Work Ex, Runner, P.A. Junior Researcher, Researcher, Senior Researcher, A.P. Producer, Director.
