CREW AT THE READY

Director of Photography

Mark Melville

Bill has known Mark for over twenty years. During that time, they have worked on a number of projects together. Whether shooting the ancient ruins of Italy or the cool waters of the Caribbean, Mark is dedicated to his craft and it shows. Bill considers himself lucky that Mark is not only a peer but a good friend.

Production Manager

Chris Smernes

With Chris on board, the production is in good hands. She is well versed in all matters of physical production and is Bill's first phone call when it comes time to start the next show. When having to make compromises, you want Chris on your side as she will have the solutions that work the best.

Unit Manager & Coordinator

Elizabeth Tichenor

From time to time Liz will step out from behind her editing console and take on the responsibilities of a unit manager and/or production coordinator. Liz moves seamlessly between departments and will always have the right answer at the right time. Did we mention she's an excellent editor as well?

Director of Photography

Andrew Giannetta

Bill and Andrew have worked on several movies of the week together. Andrew is always designing unique lighting schemes and looks to add a little something to each shot. From practical lighting, or the slightest dolly move, Andrew insists that the frame should always tell a story.

Location Manager

Teresa Beardsley

Teresa is never afraid to take on extra responsibility and it shows in her clear and concise communication and organization. Cast and crew function with ease knowing Teresa will look after all of their location needs… right down to providing power for set walkies.

Set Medic

Dave Scheinfarb

Dave has over twenty years of experience looking after cast and crew. From the original Melrose Place to tending to Bruce Willis on Armageddon, he is an added benefit to any set. Up to date on all his medical certifications, Dave makes it a point to train when the opportunity presents itself. Between supervising hundreds of EMTs and paramedics, he spent twenty years in the U.S. Navy as a Crew Chief assigned to a Combat Search & Rescue air-wing.
