    HOW I CAN APPLY MY SKILLS TO
    MY OWN TEAM .
    • I am the producer
    I have most of the skills required to meet the expectations of a good producer and am
    definitely learning on the job!
    I am quite organized with what needs to be done and I know how to communicate with my
    team. I work well in a group and can work just as well independently. I feel like I need to work
    on my knowledge about the industry and how to come up with finances. (I’m aware that we
    don’t have to have a big budget but it helps!)
    I do like producing but it doesn’t come without its challenges. I feel that I can produce bigger
    scale projects in the future and would love to get to know the industry better.
