Producer friends, we are in desperate need of a reliable and easy to work with vendor who can provide translations/transcreations of scripts and international VO casting and recording... any recos?

It's been 3 week with CTS (cognizant). After HR discussion HR said wait for offer letter but no offer letter yet.
YOE 9
Expected CTC 27Lpa
Current 20LPA
Did i ask too much?? Will congnizant not approve my Expected CTC? HR is not picking up what to do?

Joining Deloitte shortly. Was told that since I have an approved EAD/AP they will not be filing a H1B. Is this a common practice?

I’ve worked at places that all have different holiday policies. EA has at minimum a nice 10 day shutdown from Christmas Eve through New Years. It’s great to know that there will be no slack messages or an exploded inbox to come back to while away. I’ve been at other studios that only give you Christmas Eve & Day and New Years Eve & Day and then the rest is up to you to request for PTO and this is obviously the suck.

Wonder what it’s like for you?

Producer at prod co, wbu?

Hi, I’m currently unhappy at my current FT job and looking to go freelance with 4 yrs exp. Seeking any advice about how to transition /how much more prod coord exp one needs before being a producer.

Budgets, expectations, and timelines are changing. How can we work together to increase the quality of the product, while working within the constraints at hand?

Are there any online courses or resources that can help expand my knowledge of TV copyright information and anything more on the legal side of things? My internal video team is heavily leaned on for that type of info and do know a fair amount but I'd like to be more prepared all around. Google/tapping Producer friends is only relatively helpful.

We do have a lawyer that we can meet with but they're also not an expert and turnarounds are always very long so not as helpful as I'd hoped.

Anyone know if a CD has ANY of the skills to transition into a Producer role at a production company? I love creative ppl and bringing ideas to life but I'm burned out agency side.

Hi friends! I’m an ex-art director that recently stepped away after 5 years to try to pivot into production. I know it’s not the typical career route, but I think I’ll enjoy the work a lot more and be happier overall. I’m also trying to move to NYC from Austin. Does anyone have any tips for me to help me get my foot in the door? I’m an extremely hard worker, I’ve just been struggling to get convos started since I don’t really have a great NYC network. Thanks all!

Agency producer here. I have an interview with an in-house agency tomorrow and I’m trying to prep myself/anticipate questions that the Exec Producer will ask. Any sample questions you guys can think of? I feel so rusty, it’s been over 5 years since I’ve interviewed anywhere. Very much appreciated!
