How To Optimise Operational Efficiency On Set?

There are three key pillars of operational efficiency on set:

→ Open Communication;

→ Safety Adherence;

→ Preparation.

To grasp them, follow these steps:

• Communicate Early & Often: Give everyone a thorough rundown of the shoot beforehand. To avoid delays and swiftly address problems, promote open communication. More tips on communication are elaborated here: https://www.talenttrustservices.com/blog/category/Communication

• Safety First: A safe set is an efficient set. Clearly define safety procedures and give in-depth instructions. Save our Gear Safety Checklist: https://www.talenttrustservices.com/blog/gear-safety-checklist

• Stronghold In Pre-Production: Carefully review scripts and storyboards to identify any logistical problems. Confusion is reduced when everyone shows up prepared thanks to call sheets and detailed schedules.

Lastly, prioritise the tasks. Make your shot list a priority while leaving room for flexibility.

Empower your talent. Assign duties that align with the skills of the workforce to leverage their abilities.
