STUNT SKILLSET
On-set, the Stunt Coordinator relies on their Stunties to deliver a competent & safe performance every time; overselling one's self isn't helpful.
With respect that mastery of a specialization takes years, let's be candid; where do I shine, and where am I still learning...
GREEN = proficient and ready to roll!
eg. Water, Tactical movement & weapon manipulation, Firearm safety, Horse awareness, devoted Precision in choreography.
YELLOW = able, but not expert.
eg. Falls, Horse riding, etc.
ORANGE = Learning &/or doable with pre-shoot training.
eg. Trick-riding, High Falls
