Hey Everyone!
Its a pleasure to meet you all. I am Nana kofi Dadson a Producer/Director based in the NYC Metro area. I have been in the media & entertainment industry for a little over 7 years and would love to continue being a student of production.
My passion for media and production came from what I didn’t see. As a first gen Ghanaian & South African when i would turn on the tv I would see people that looked like me but no one that shared a similar experience.
So through my work in this industry as a producer/director I want to make sure no one experiences has to feel that feeling of onliness. My goal is to ensure that people from all walks of life feel seen, heard and valued through the content they digest daily.
Over the past 7 years, i’ve had the pleasure of working on a diverse range of projects, from documentaries to digital scripted series, and have been able to gain experience as a production assistant, line producer, assistant director, research producer and more.
I feel like i have so much more to learn so i would love to find a mentor, shadow productions or lend a hand so i may be an asset while i learn from the best.

Greetings,
My name is Larry Dorsey. I am a rigging programmer looking for a mentor, teacher, friend, who can teach me the tricks and trades of the business and help me in my journey of transitioning from the rigging side of production to the corporate side. I have only been in this business for three years, so I am not 100 percent sure about all the different job titles, but I am interested in becoming a UPM and later on down the line, a producer. Thank you and i hope to hear from someone soon.

Hi Larry—
One thing you can do if you want to start looking into becoming a UPM is to come up through Production assistant to 2nd AD and on up. The DGA assistant director program is something you might want to look into. You may want to go through some profiles here on the site and reach out to folks interested in mentoring. Check out the DGA.org site for more on this path— good luck!1
