A caterer provides food and resources for the film crew. The film crew often works long hours and need to eat well to film their best. Catering companies provide daily meals such as breakfast, lunch and dinner. Sometimes the crew works late into night, the caterers provide them coffee and snacks to get them through. Two days before the movie is filmed, the catering vehicles set off early in the morning to assure time to prepare breakfast for the cast and crew. If the location of the film is hard to find are too far, the catering crew meets up at a rendezvous and is escorted to the location by the manager. Chefs cook different meals that appeal to their previous menus; they ensure that the dietary requirements are catered for.
Location Manager
A Location Manager is a person who is linked and communicates with the film Production Company or advertising agency. They also work with the film’s director, giving the initiative whether or not the location is right. During pre-production a location manager confirms the rights to film at that certain location also known as “clearing the location”. Their pre-production jobs include confirming availability and agreeing on pees to be paid to the location property owner or agent. They also obtain certificates of insurance, any needed film permits, distributing resident letters or filming notifications. Sometimes in some cases plans are made and because of the budget and they scout for further locations.
Prop Maker
Prop makers create replica props that are usually not brought or hired. They work in the properties department of feature films. The props that they make range from a large category of objects including stunt prop and specialised objects that move or light up. Prop makers can work alone, in some cases they work in large prop teams. Prop makers have responsibilities of planning and creating the necessary props for production.
