3 Common Mistakes and Pitfalls During Production

There's a simple thing you can add to your production process that will separate you from other partners: proactive communication.

This will allow them time to remediate the situation and, more critically, communicate with their boss or client to level-set expectations.

The worst thing you can do is go rogue and start making executive decisions about how to proceed, given the new conditions or project dynamics.
