Driving for the movies

Paging @SHO-TYME

 

My buddy does. It's a union job. Pretty good gig but not for me.

 

I got my picture in a magazine article one time, does that count?

very very very little if ANY non union work in the film industry....one of the reasons Toronto has become so big in film on location&there is very little work outside of NY&LA....and most if not all location work is done predominantly w/union help from out of town....im sure any work round hot lanta will be union gigs.....pay well but mostly part time&lots and lots of hangin round....you're a driver that's all....got a buddy w/a huge place on the central call coast been a driver outta LA for years.....never worked 150 days a year in 30...&still makes well into 6figures....

 

Making friends with the local Teamsters and IATSE bosses couldn't hurt.

 

Not regularly, but recently I hauled some props, including cannons and guns from California to New Mexico. It was for an upcoming film called Hostiles. Can't wait to see it.

 

Your hard hat is glowing

 

There's such a limited number of those jobs , and an unlimited number of drivers who think it's all " Hollywood" and Showtime. I'll bet it more who you know than what you know to get one of those jobs.
