Troy McLaughlin

Having worked within the locations department for 10 years, I am confident in my ability to complete whatever is needed regarding whichever production I'm currently working on. I like to be organised but not forget that it's a film we're making so our plans change day to day, and I adapt well to that change of pace. I naturally moved into the role due to the transferable skills from my days working in Facilities management. It's essentially the same, just for film and television crews.
