The
DGA Contract Administration-East (DGACA-East) maintains lists of individuals
who have met the minimum requirements as set forth in the DGA
Basic Agreement for work as Unit Production
Managers, First Assistant Directors, and Second Assistant Directors
in the Motion Picture Industry. The Directors Guild of America

Qualification Lists.
The
DGACA-East is not affiliated with the Directors Guild of America.
