Welcome to the PIT List!

I'm a network field producer who also worked in local tv as a line producer and field producer. Over the years, I have had the great fortune to work with super people. Now I'd like to pass along what I know and rant a tad.

Note to Self Re: Hotels

When coming to a city for an assignment and one is not sure how long said assignment is going to last, it might make some sense to book the crew's hotel for say, a whole week. The rooms can, after all, be cancelled. If perhaps, one only books for a two days and then forgets to extend-- and the rest of the goofball press arrives and grabs every available room within a 50 mile radius, the crew might find themselves at the Bates Motel with sagging beds and a "massager" that takes quarters. I am exaggerating only slightly.
