Michael Rubman Assistant Director
Projects
The Full Story
Born and raised in Los Angeles, not knowing much of what the film industry was growing up, I ended up getting an opportunity from a neighbor at the age of 18. I jumped on the opportunity and fell in love with being on a set As a youth I played hockey and other team sports which helped me tune up my leadership characteristics, which helped me mold who I am now. I'm an avid golfer in my off time trying to hone in my game with each chance. I ended up in the film industry over 2 decades ago. I created a love of being on set and discovering the process of film making. Along the way I found myself reaching out to the assistant directors on set, learning the skills of directing and all the details that involve making a project. I saw that the AD position is a leader on set and I wanted to achieve that same position knowing I had those same qualities to lead the ship. Rightfully so I became an AD, as such I've worked on many jobs and have lead many sets to their final goal. I like to keep my set calm and cool with efficiency letting each department get the job done. I consider myself someone with great relationship skills who can be trusted, displayed with leadership and time management .
This way everyone gets a chance at living the dream in the biz!
