Brendon Costello March 16th, 2009, 09:45 PM Looking for a videgrapher for 3/8/09 in Glenside PA. This is right outside the Philadelphia area. The shoot is from 6:00 to 8:00pm. You do not need to have your own camera but being familer with the Canon XHA1 would be helpful but not mandatory. Must have experience.
Just found your message, but a little too late. If you ever need a shooter again, keep me in mind.
I currently shoot on a Panasonic AG-HMC150 and have several years of very active experience. Resume upon request.

Garrett Low March 18th, 2009, 01:23 PM Interview Subjects Needed For Documentary Film
I'm working on a project that we're scheduled to shoot in April. If anyone knows of someone who fits into the follow please either email the link below or you can PM me directly. We are also looking for someone who lived through the Great Depression and would be willing to be interviewed and possibly be one of the subjects.
Thanks,
Garrett
Has the economic recession changed you for the better?
Have you been laid off or lost your home to foreclosure? Are you having a hard time making your mortgage payments or paying medical bills or health insurance? Do you see the recession as an opportunity to reassess what really matters, find joy and meaning and make positive changes in how you live your life?
If you have a compelling story to tell, we want to hear from you! We are a San Francisco-based team of filmmakers producing a documentary film that focuses on personal and social transformation in the economic recession. Our goal is to document how people are being affected by the recession and how the choices they make are transforming their lives. By taking a close look at how people are using the recession as an opportunity to “be the change” we will weave a story of hope and perseverance.
Whether you are in the midst of transforming your life, or have already come through the storm and are ready to share your wisdom with others we want to hear how the recession is affecting your family, relationships and home life, your job and money and your day to day habits and choices.
If you are interested in being interviewed and featured in the film, please write to
mailto:interviewopportunity@gmail.com
Provide a short synopsis of how your life has been affected by the economy. Share your age and location as well. We will review all submissions and get back to you if your story matches well with what we are looking for. We will shoot all interviews in April on the weekends. We are willing to travel outside of the Bay Area, but not out of state. PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD to your friends and communities!
Thanks!
Kevin Lewis March 18th, 2009, 09:31 PM I am looking for a prestigous looking home in the philadelphia are where I can film a short segment for an upcoming documentary. The home must be aestically pleasing. The shoot will last for about 4 hours and I am willing to pay for the use of the home.

Kevin Lewis March 18th, 2009, 09:40 PM Needed for a 2-3 hour shoot which will take place the first week of May. Must use Canon XHA1 for shoot so that the footage matches what we've already filmed.
Ram Purad March 19th, 2009, 09:31 PM Hey Folks,
This might be a late notice. But I'm looking for a 2nd shooter for wedding reception on March 28th, 2009 (and possibly few more dates through out the summer). I expect the videographer to come with an HD camera (Preferably Canon or Sony) and accessories. Here is the link to our website for you to checkout the type of work we produce:

Adam Gold March 20th, 2009, 01:39 PM Because I'm a dope and am addicted to new toys, I have a lot of stuff sitting on the shelf when I'm not using it (which is most of the time). So on occasion I've rented it out to local videographers whom I know and trust for about half the going rate around town, and I thought this might come in handy for any local DVInfoers as well.
Here's what I have available:
2 - Sony FX1000s
2 - Sony FX1s
2 - Sony FX7s
2 - Sony HC3s
1 - Sony HD1000U
2 - Bogen/Manfrotto tripod rigs: 3046/3246 legs, 503/503HDV head, Ball leveler, 523Pro remote on right side, stock pan bar on left.
2 - Davis & Sanford FH18 tripod rigs, two pan handles with Bogen/Manfrotto 521 LANC remote & dolly.
2 - Beachtek XLR adapters
Rode VideoMic
1 - Sony M15U HDV/DVCAM deck with DSRM10 Wired remote
1 - Sony GVH-D700 HDV deck with built in 7" viewscreen
Various other odds and ends including shoulder mounts and on-cam external monitors.
So not what I'd call high-end stuff, but good prosumer gear well-maintained. If you're in the area and need an extra cam or two for the weekend, email me and we'll work something out.
I know this isn't, strictly speaking, a job posting, but I checked with Chris and he said this would be okay.
Prashanna Jayaseelan March 20th, 2009, 03:07 PM Thanks to everyone who emailed me.
Cheers

Tyge Floyd March 20th, 2009, 07:09 PM I'm a Dallas/Ft. Worth based shooter who is looking to expand my horizons a bit. For the last four years I've been a freelance shooter for hunting/outdoor related shows for TV. I'm looking for other opportunities to shoot just about anything. I travel over 200 days a year so it need not be close to home but that would be a bonus (read as in lower daily rate).
I have my own gear which consists of a Canon XL-H1a and all the supporting equipment. I've also spent some time shooting many other cameras including a Sony XDCAM rig so I'm comfortable with higher end cameras.
My profile has a link to my web site with a demo reel. Please contact me if you are seeking someone who does a small amount of editing and knows how to shoot for the edit, is willing to go the extra mile to get the shot and is a team player.
Thanks.
Andy Adams March 20th, 2009, 07:58 PM Hi, I'm graduating with my film degree in May and I'm trying to move to the Orlando area from Texas as soon as possible. I have been emailing several companies and posting my resume on several sites, with not much success.
I am seeking some advice from fellow video producers. I have over 5 years experience shooting miniDV and beta, and over 2 years experience editing with Final Cut Pro.
I'm just wondering the best way to approach finding a new job and moving. I have tons of experience and a great work ethic. My passion is for video/film production, i'm just unsure of how to find and secure a great job.
Thanks for your help,
Andy
Lori Starfelt March 21st, 2009, 03:11 PM Email is easily ignored. call them. get them on the phone. Find out if they have any openings. It may be tough to find a job in your chosen field in Orlando. Heck, it can be tough in LA with all the jobs that we have.
What is it that you are hoping to do in Orlando? And why Orlando?
Benjamin Hill March 22nd, 2009, 12:28 PM In this economy almost any job is a great job, but I digress...if you are passionate about production in general you might be happy in any number of industry careers so bouncing around and learning the different trades might help you find a focus.
A good metric of experience in this business is a demo reel/video portfolio, if you don't have one yet...also, offering to work for low or no pay on a few projects is a really good way to beef up your professional experience, forge valuable new relationships, and develop a good reputation for yourself. Times change and industries evolve but it seems like there is always demand for industrious, creative people who can work well in a team.
Charles Papert March 22nd, 2009, 02:56 PM What kind of job specifically are you looking for? chances are that with your level of experience it may have to be more entry-level than you might like (or at a very small company).
When you say you have a "ton of experience", how much of that was paid and/or for a legitimate company vs. school projects or indie productions? Most companies will be looking for the former when considering individuals for shooting or editing positions.
Mat Thompson March 23rd, 2009, 04:58 AM Hi guys
I'm going to be shooting part of a music vid in central London on April the 19th for a great up and coming band. Its a low budget production and I'm not actually being paid.
But for a couple of hours we could do with a second camera to cover some street based stuff. So we are willing to pay a token £60 for a shooter/cam for the couple of hours we need. Preferably JVC HD100/200.
Central London / April 19th

James Huenergardt March 26th, 2009, 07:13 PM Hi,
I'm doing a seminar shoot and am in need of a third EX1 (I own 2 of them).
I need to rent a Sony EX1 with firmware of at least v1.1x (MxR recording) on April 24th and 25th.
Please contact me web[at]reelinspirations.com or visit my web site for my phone.
I'm going to be shooting at this address: 1301 S Baltimore St, Tacoma WA and I'll be flying in to SEA (Seattle Tacoma International).
Hope I didn't break any rules posting this here. I need the EX1 and this was the first place I thought of posting. My apologies if I did.
Thanks,
Jim
Mitchell Lewis March 27th, 2009, 04:12 PM We've got an EX3, but our company is 3.5 hours from Seattle/Tacoma and there's a mountain pass to drive over. But if you get in a bind, let me know and we can work something out.
Tristan Howard March 28th, 2009, 01:30 PM I’ve had a lot happen in the last couple months and attached an updated résumé to reflect the changes.
This month, my 2007 film, “The Wildlife of Little Hot Springs Valley,” received an “Honorable Mention for Animal Behavior” from the International Wildlife Film Festival.
My 2009 film, “Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park: A Biophysical Overview,” screened at the Sundial Film Festival in Redding, CA on March 15 and received a positive reception from a large audience. I also gave a brief intro at the festival and had my first experience speaking with a powerful mic and a podium. “Prairie Creek” will make its television debut on the California PBS station, KIXE TV, on April 11. Plus, I’m scheduled to screen that film (completed for a school project) at the annual Geography Department alumni reunion at my university.
Furthermore, I finally got my hands on the XLH1A and shot about 9 hours of footage with it. I’ve become pretty proficient with my new camera and am now familiar with adjusting f-stops, gain, and white balance. I recently ordered a new cable so I can try out the XLH1A’s XLR inputs. And, I’ve gotten more practice recording sounds with the Sony PCM-D50. I’ve learned the windscreen is important and it’s key to keep the levels below -12 dB.
John, thanks for the link. I checked out the website of Fischer Productions. It looks like all their shows focus on bullet shooting or hooking wildlife. For the time being, I’d prefer to avoid hunting/fishing productions, but I will keep the company in mind. I know my options are limited and videographers can’t always afford to be choosy.
Nicole Hankerson March 28th, 2009, 08:13 PM May I have an update status on this project?
Thanks

Benjamin Eckstein April 8th, 2009, 04:57 PM I need to do a shoot for a client outside of Lousiville, KY sometime between April 12-26 that I am unable to do. This will be a 1 day shoot and should be pretty fun. All the other footage in the video will be from a Sony EX-1, so my preference would be for an EX-1 or 3 equipped shooter, but I am more concerned with the talent than the camera (as long as it can shoot HD progressive).
Please PM me if you are in the area and interested and let me know your day rate, gear, and most importantly links to your demo reels.
I am meeting with the client (who is based in Boston) on Friday to storyboard the shoot and try to work out the dates that would be best for them.
Thanks,
Benjamin

Daniel Rudd April 10th, 2009, 12:35 PM Our short film has already been accepted into 2 regional and 2 national level festivals (we're hoping for more), but we would really like to improve the soundtrack.
We have all the elements ready and synced, but some of the audio is recorded poorly, and there is some inconsistent room noise.
This project was entirely funded out of project so we can't pay much, but it's a good opportunity for a credit in a film that will hopefully play at lots of festivals.
Anyone interested?
Hanno di Rosa April 10th, 2009, 02:03 PM unfortunately there is very little that can be done in post with bad audio. there are no miracle plugins or magic tricks, apart from the classic tools like noise gate or phase inversion or steep-notch filters to remove steady hum etc.
all these will alter the remaining sound!
There is of course the possibility to edit the audio in the bit range by redrawing the waveform by hand but you wouldnt want to know how much I charge for that :-)
I used to manually remove the crackles from 78rpm shellack records in the late 80s when the CD reissue craze took off
J.J. Kim April 10th, 2009, 02:25 PM Hi, all.
I am in need of 2nd videographer for a wedding in Oak Terrace, IL on August 15, 09.
I can give more details once contacted, but I just wanted to post this here before I do in craigslit because I trust people from DVinfo a lot more.
I am using Canon XH-A1 and I would prefer to have someone who has A1 as well.
However, I am more concerned about the talent than the camera (as long as it shoots HDV). I would have to meet with you in person in order to proceed.
Surprisingly, my studio is getting some double-booking, so this could very well lead to future gig.
Please PM me or e-mail me at orange123go@gmail.com
Thank you!
JJ
Scott Hayes April 11th, 2009, 05:30 AM Ben, please let us know if you found someone, I am available and would love to help
