Production Coordinators
The Production Coordinator is a contractor position which facilitates and supports technical production for CPR programs, including public performances, rental programs such as the @CPR Performance Series, film and photo shoots, and other rentals and events. Production Coordinators may have a technical focus with general production knowledge, or a specific technical skillset, and are hired based on the specific productions needs of a given program.
