๐ฌ Tip #4 โ Donโt step up to the next position until youโre ready.
Itโs imperative to make sure you have the skills and training relevant to the job youโre stepping up to. Being under-qualified or inexperienced is a health and safety issue.
Yes, itโs tempting to accept a job thatโs the next rung on the ladder, but be responsible and ask yourself, do I have the skills? If not, you could be putting yourself and those around you in potential danger.

๐ฌ Tip #3 - Always do your due diligence before hiring crew.
In our industry, safety is the number one priority, and this starts with who youโre hiring.
Always make sure you do due diligence before you hire someone, especially if they are not known to you. ๐
CVs and showreels have to be backed up with evidence. Go onto IMDb and check out their credits.
Call previous employers to get references.
Not doing proper due diligence can lead to employing an individual without the relevant skills, and this can have devastating consequences!
