I believe I’ve seen both of those. Offhand, PWF I believe has something to do with pulling an actor out of a Hold period, though I need to confirm that. The WF part would likely stand for “Work Finish.” I think PW is also an option.

As for WD, I can’t say for certain I’ve seen that on a callsheet. It looks familiar but I don’t know what it represents.

I’ll post here if I come up with an answer, or feel free to follow up if you find out something yourself!

Timing and communication are vital.You cannot be late for a call.It is your responsibility to be where the camera is! Always demand a call sheet and prize it well ,don’t let anyone “borrow it”,you will never see it again!,study it well,every detail.Your name will always be on it, because you are a very important part of the production and the film budget.Communicate with the crew always.Introduce yourself to the Director of Photography and the Lighting crew and Electrical crew(Grips) they are part of your position and you cannot function without them and they cannot work without you! Always remember their names.Show confidence and do not get stressed.Be a “Yes” person and never refuse to do something for another crew member.You must be part of the team and be one step ahead.

Keep your personal and private life to yourself,while on set.Never gossip or get involved with the “Politics” of the set.Everybody has an agenda and they will try to involve you.Avoid this and you will attend the wrap party! A film set is a very dangerous place to be on,never forget that.Respect all electrical equipment and props! Always observe what is above you and on the ground.Be vigilant and step over all those wires and obstructions carefully.Your health and personal safety must not be compromised.

Hollywood Stars like their privacy and personal space.Be polite and respectful to your Star.Let them open a conversation.Ask them if you could bring them a refreshment rather than their autograph! Be kind and thoughtful to Extras on the film.They look up to you,as you are in a better position than them.The days can be long and Extras have a very exhuastive and sometimes difficult time on major movies.Go and eat with the Extras in their tent,they will respect you for that and other crew members will observe your move! Motivate and encourage the Extras ,long after the film has wrapped you have made new freinds and contacts in the industry.One of the Extra’s on the film I worked on was the son of one of Hollywoods greatest Stars! He never disclosed his name and I respected his privacy.

Being a Stand-In is a gateway and education to the competative film industry.Linking the Star to your name at Castings is a catalyst to a Director,who may take the risk and offer you,your first speaking part! The fact that you had become a Stand-In gives a Director or Producer the confidence that you have knowledge and understanding of the industry.Never under-estimate the position of a Stand-In,you are the next Actor and who knows Star!
