First Day on Set

Have you been on set before? Would you happen to know what to expect? Being on set involves very different terminology, procedures, and responsibilities than theatre. The more you know, the better you will be at your job; no one wants to stand out for the wrong reasons. 

Seasoned professional Kimberly Butler-Gilkeson will walk you through how to prepare for work, what to bring, how to decipher and understand call sheets, how to set etiquette and more. Kimberely will share their knowledge to help you feel ready to go on your very first day.

Kimberly Butler-Gelksen, IATSE Local 764

Location: New York, NY

Kimberly Butler-Gilkeson has been a member of Local 764 since 1999 when she began her career in theatre. She has since worked in film, television, and daytime episodic series. She joined Local 764 knowing how to sew, do quick changes and had a desire to keep pace with the skilled vets of this union. Kimberly is grateful to all of those members who helped her expand her skill set and feels honored to be asked to share with others what she has learned.
