About Malika

I have experience working both as a **1st Assistant Director** and **Production Assistant** on feature films, short films, talk shows, and true crime series. As a 1st AD, I’ve led production days by managing call times, talent coordination, and on-set communication. I served as the main point of contact for actors, ensured each department had clear instructions, and kept production running on time and on track. I’m skilled at maintaining a professional and calm set environment while keeping things organized and efficient. I’ve also directed select scenes when needed, managed catering, and tracked shot continuity through log notes and scene slating. As a Production Assistant, I supported producers and crew with everything from setup and scene slating to guest prep and camera monitoring. I’ve worked on both scripted and unscripted productions, and I’m known for staying focused, taking initiative, and being highly adaptable. I also bring strong research and communication skills—especially from my work on a YouTube talk show where I conducted pre-interviews, created one-sheets for guest approval, and ensured the host stayed on schedule during filming. Whether behind the scenes or assisting directly with talent and production leads, I bring strong attention to detail, the ability to multitask under pressure, and a positive attitude to every set. I’m passionate about storytelling and take pride in helping bring creative visions to life through teamwork, professionalism, and hustle.
