Chargehand Carpenters are responsible for all of the work carried out by the carpentry team.
This includes all of the wooden structures required by film production, ranging from doors, windows and wooden props, through to the raised platforms that may be required by the crew during filming.
During pre-production, Chargehand Carpenters liaise with the Construction Manager to calculate the number of carpenters required and hire suitably qualified individuals. They set up the workshop, ensuring that it provides a safe working environment.
Chargehand Carpenters work closely with the Construction Manager and Set Designer to calculate the specifications for the wooden structures needed on the film set. They order the necessary materials and tools.
They allocate and supervise the work carried out in the workshop. They ensure that the team carries out its work to the standards, budget and deadlines set by the Construction Manager.
During production, Chargehand Carpenters travel to the filming location to oversee the assembly of the wooden structures required.
At the end of the shoot, Chargehand Carpenters take charge as their team ‘strike’ (take apart and remove) the wooden structures, ensuring that they are safely and securely disposed of, stored, or returned to the appropriate place.
