About me

Hello my name is George Vitale. I have recently graduated from Full Sail University with a Bachelors degree in Film. During my two years at Full Sail, I have become very knowledgeable with all kinds of film and broadcasting gear, such as lighting and camera equipment. I have worked on three shorts, two on 35mm and one on 16mm. Also I have worked on one HD Broadcasting segment. We had to create a live thirty-minute show for our final project.
I live on Long Island currently. I have done grip work and worked with all kinds of grip gear. I have been a Camera Operator, 1st Assistant Cameraman and 2nd Assistant Cameraman with top of the line equipment. I was recently a Dolly Grip/Jib Grip for my 35mm project. I was also Camera Operator for our HD project in studio and in the field. I have recently worked on the Food Network show "The Best Thing I Ever Ate" as a Production Assistant. Now I work as an executive assistant at The Weinstein Company for the Creator/ Executive Producer of Vh1's show Mob Wives. While working here I have scheduled meetings/phone calls and handled appearance bookings for the cast of the show.
When it comes down to it, I am a hard worker. I'm used to long days, 12 and 14-hour days. I honestly wouldn't mind being a Production Assistant to the Camera Team or a Talent Production Assistant. I'm a very outgoing person with a great sense of humor and get along with everyone. Helping people is another thing I am great at and it's one of the big keys of making a production. I understand teamwork and the hierarchy of a crew. When I am on set I am all about making it happen.
