My role as Production Manager was the central piece of this safety operation. I implemented and supervised a meticulous biosafety protocol for COVID, and at the same time, I ensured that all safety standards for handling fire and weapons were strictly met. My approach was to manage a set that allowed the bladesmiths to compete and the cameras to capture the show's intensity, while I made sure that the safety of every person was the top priority. This role demanded my constant attention to detail, merging production management with risk management.
