Keeping Projects on Track

The Producers Group serves many vital functions at vivid: handling projects, from proposal to ship; a guiding hand to the Experience and Engineering groups; providing administrative support and dealing with the nitty-gritty details of making sure everyone attends the right meetings, gets all the email, meets all their deadlines, and comes away feeling good about their work. It's kind of like having the parents you always wished you had...

 

Who's in the group:

Executive Producer (Sarah Cooper)
(Just think--our own personal Aaron Spelling!) Responsible for high-level, strategic project management, communication, team building, and decision making, as well as scheduling, budget, and resource planning and management. The Executive Producer also leads large-scale, long-term projects requiring the coordination of several producers. They're also ultimately accountable for completing the project on time and budget.

Director, Producers Group (Lisa Bertelsen)
Focuses on skill development and career advancement within the group. She also provides clients and project teams with producers whose technical acumen, management skills, and leadership are equal to the tasks at hand. She also helps to develop strategic and business relationships, recruit talent, set budgets, and act as a company representative, conveying a vision within and without the company.

Producers (Betsy Harkavy, David de Andreis, Erik Schwartz, Sarah Berg)
Responsible for researching and developing proposals, communicating with client, facilitating client and team meetings, and managing the project team. Unless the project has an Executive Producer, the Producer is ultimately accountable for completing the project on time and budget.

Associate Producer (Chelsea Slosky)
Responsible for writing, editing, and estimating resources for vivid projects.

Production Assistants (Catherine Sawall, Mirjana Risek)
Carry out the evil plans of the producers (e.g., assist producers in scheduling, coordination, communications, and traffic management).
