LA Times Creates New Sound Department Position

My favorite made up job title from about 4 years ago was a "Transpotographer" We were doing a reality cooking competition  so production hired PA's who were photo students to drive the contests around and then take photos of them. The producer said it was an easy way to save money since  photo's didn't need to be taken while they were being driven around He thought it might catch on thankfully haven't seen the job title on a call sheet since

Actually, the sound dept used to have a position that I think was called Sound Grip back in the day. They were basically in charge of rigging mikes on set. They also had a Boom Pusher position, the person assigned to move the perambulator boom during (or between) shots.
