There are many jobs that you can apply for in a film crew.
If you are at the entry level and have not yet decided what it is that you need to do, you should probably start at the very beginning – as a grip.
And your resume for a grip position must show how interested you are in the work.
As part of the film crew, a grip makes sure that the lighting and rigging processes are properly handled on a set.
And the ability to do this properly is what needs to go into his or her resume.
As a grip, you may be just starting out, so your entry-level resume might not be too detailed. Not an issue.
Here is a sample that you can refer to:
