6 Rules for the set

I believe that the three most important things on a film set are minding your manners, saving your comments, and learning the unique rules of the set. Minding you manners on set is important because, if you don't know it, you could step out of line and get fired. Being able to access a situation and figure out what you need to do and not do is important with manners. Another thing to keep in mind on set is saving a comment till the end of a take. Depending on your position, your comment can mean a big improvement in the film; however, to fully take advantage of your comment, wait until everyone is able to hear you after the take. A third thing to keep in mind on set is learning the unique rules on a set. As a loud person myself, I need to understand the environment that I'm in before I speak. If the film set is loud and fun, then I'll be able to speak to my hearts content. Being able to identify the environment that you're in is a very valuable skill.
