PRODUCER / FIXER / PRODUCTION MANAGER
Hi friend. I’m THE Andrew Barker of The Andrew Barker Production Company. A brief background on me. I’m a Chicago guy who has travelled the world, and ended up in Texas, twice! I’m a father to a toddler, husband, son, and brother. I’m a music nerd, who enjoys exploring the outdoors on foot and bike, following Chicago sports teams(mostly happily), learning new useless facts, and a good meal to go along with a great story.
I love connecting clients vision to reality. I have worked and am available to work across every region in Texas and into Oklahoma as well. I have a deep knowledge and understanding of local crew, vendors and labor laws. I am comfortable in the uncomfortable and can work anywhere with power and wifi. Check out my Instagram link above for proof. I pride myself on maintaining the human element on every production. From pre-production to wrap, I believe in clear, thorough, and honest communication about the budget and expectations. I enjoy and thrive coming up with creative solutions to ensure client satisfaction. I bring a calm, collected, diplomatic presence with an eye for detail to execute any budget size.
I rose the ranks of production starting in 2009 exploring the many avenues of film as a PA. I had the pleasure of working on numerous formats in Cinema. From live events like the Super Bowl, Stanley Cup, NBA All Star Game to the Emmys and MTV Movie Awards. I dabbled in long format series and reality shows such as Shameless, Chicago Fire, The Biggest Loser, and 4 Weddings. It was in the commercial / corporate advertising world that I found my niche. I wasn’t born in Texas but got here as soon as I could. If you have commercial film production needs in Texas, get in touch.
