The Kincade Approach

We believe talent and hard work matter—but they’re not enough on their own

People break into creative careers when they have the right information at the right time. The creative industries run on unspoken rules: etiquette, expectations, and professional behavior you’re rarely taught in a classroom. We teach those rules. We show how the industry really works—what gets noticed, what gets you hired, and what gets you asked back. A new career in film and media starts right here!

“I didn't even know I could learn this, I didn't know anybody should pay attention to this. There's no courses out there that teach you this. I didn't realize how important it was until later on” - Jesse Hernandez, Fresno, CA

 

be a Successful film Production assistant (PA)

Most people don’t break into film by luck. They start as Production Assistants—and most students have no idea what that job really is.

The Kincade Productions PA Course shows students how sets actually work, what employers expect, and how to get hired without embarrassing themselves on day one.

No fluff. No theory for theory’s sake. Just real‑world knowledge from people who’ve been doing this for decades.

Teacher Feedback

Michael Jones, Film Teacher, Casa Robles High School, Orangevale, CA

“I went to film school and so for someone who had to make senior films, worked on different film productions, it was really amazing to see that there's a tool out there that helps anyone. You learn where your value is and what your strengths are and you can apply those to those areas. And then as you keep working your way up, then you start to get towards what you really want to do.”

 

Student Feedback

Results don’t lie

“I am writing this to give my highest possible recommendation—a 10/10—to this course. If you are looking to break into the film industry but feel overwhelmed by where to start, this is the bridge you need. What sets this program apart is its focus on the "small actions" that actually matter. It doesn't just cover theory; it teaches the essential on-set etiquette and professional nuances that make or break a newcomer's reputation. Knowing how to conduct yourself on a busy set gave me the confidence to take that daunting first step toward my career.

I have already booked my first PA job on set! If you are serious about working in film, don’t hesitate. This course provides the roadmap and the mentorship to turn your goals into a reality.” Karen Koluchyuk, Production Assistant, Atlanta, GA
