I GOT A JOB!!!!!!!!

After six months of being out of work I got a call today and accepted a new job with MTV. A former boss mentioned the job a month or so ago but wasn't sure when it was going to start. I sent her my resume and she turned it over to the line producer who called me today and we worked out the details. I'll be the shows Post Production Supervisor (the job I've done the past six years). It sounds great and had a really good post schedule set up already. Lots of time to get these episodes done. The money was right and I look forward to working with my previous boss Robyn.

It starts Nov 22nd for two days then Thanksgiving time off, then I start the following Monday and it runs through July. It's eight months of work. I can't say much about the show other then it's an MTV show which means I'll be working in Santa Monica at their offices. It's 12 half hour episodes and it's a docu/reality show. I'll have four editors and 3 assistant editors. I'm really looking forward to this job. Should be a great experience.

Now I can enjoy this next month off and not have to stress about finding a job.. whoo hooo.

  2. Santa Monica is nice but it's far from my place. 2 hour drive in traffic up and back... hoping I can either go in later and leave later so offset the traffic.

  6. Congrats Kenny. Can't wait to hear about it. I'm crossing my fingers that it's K-Town, the Asian American version of Jersey Shore. Represent!

  7. Congratulations!

    Am I the only one who does not really know what a post production supervisor does? Maybe you could write a blog post on what you do at work some day =)
