He worked his way up to Production Manager in just over five years.With a deep appreciation for storytelling and the fast-paced nature of production, David continues to thrive in the film industry.Why is learning and training important?It's the most important! I love learning and growing, and the training programs have been so important in my growth in the industry. A few times, I have jumped into a position I did not feel ready for, but I was also blessed to have other crew in the industry I could call and bounce ideas off of. I just finished work on Normal and got to work with Bonus Productions, and what I learned during those months was so important. Being collaborative as a Production Manager has taught me so much about the industry and crew – but I have a lot more learning to do, which is exciting.
