View Full Version : Helping Hands from 2005 Doyle Keeton October 20th, 2005, 01:14 PM Need a still shooter in Jacksonville, FL area on Nov. 11, 12 and 13. Doyle Daniel Broadway October 21st, 2005, 11:41 AM Well, I'm afriad I wouldn't be able to pay much, because I am just a visual effects student in college. I am trying to recreate the lava planet seen at the end of Episode III. I finally got some pretty decent looking CGI lava fountains. This is NOT a scene from Episode III. I did all the visual effects in this shot. Take a look... http://cryptite.f2o.org/Mustafar/Mustafar_Env_composite.mov DJ Kinney October 21st, 2005, 07:46 PM Hi. I've started a new multimedia production company that is really just a Mafia front for my secret desire to make short films. I'm looking for someone in PDX to share in the trials and tribulations. From working over the script ideas, to scouting for locations, to the all-important day when you get to act like someone important at the hotel meeting room for auditions and then tell the actors that we don't actually have enough money to pay them. Or help in fundraising so that we will have enough. Takers? Dave Frank October 21st, 2005, 11:16 PM Hey guys, I am currently in production on an independent feature called "Sleep Tight, Tiger". We recently had a crew member realize they just couldn't make the time commitment to working on the film, so now I am looking for a new camera assistant. We are shooting on a XL-2 with a mini35. This is a non-paying, non-union production. Give me a call and I can give you all the info you need! -David Frank 248.390.8162 Alecks Purifoy October 22nd, 2005, 03:22 PM im still looking for a videographer / dp in KC available the day after thanksgiving for a 2 day shoot! you will be fed(catering) and compensated for gasoline..... If your interested, shoot me a short e-mail at alexpurifoy@gmail.com and tell me about your self, experience ect. thanks Brian Johnson October 25th, 2005, 12:32 AM We are currently looking for an experienced gaffer for our upcoming fifteen-minute independent psychological horror film. You must be able to work well in a team environment and work closely with the director of photography to achieve the desired effect. Outdoor night scene lighting skills are a must. The shooting dates are tentative right now for December 2nd through 4th in Monmouth County, New Jersey with a possibility that we might go over that three day time frame. This is a low budget film meaning that this is a non-paying job. We will pick up your transportation costs and pay for your food. If you are interested, please send me a copy of your resume/work experience and some samples of your prior work if you have them to bpjobs@bp.kairazarin.com. Look forward to hearing from you, Brian DJ Kinney October 25th, 2005, 10:29 PM I think it's time for Craigslist. Brandon Greenlee October 26th, 2005, 03:50 PM I've seen better... Henrik Holmberg October 27th, 2005, 08:55 AM These scripts are not available anymore. Thanks for your interest. Daniel Broadway October 27th, 2005, 02:28 PM That's not nice, Brandon. See you at work...ha ha. Andrew Sohn October 28th, 2005, 12:30 PM Would any DVX100A users in Northern New Jersey be available for around 2 hours sunday (october 28th) morning at around 9:30? I am taping a small tribute video for an organization and my camera died on me. I would be willing to pay. Please contact me at andrewjsohn at yahoo dot com. Matthew Overstreet October 31st, 2005, 10:47 PM My partner and I plan to shoot a scene from a recently completed feature length screenplay to woe producers/investors. We're looking for someone that owns a DVX100 that would be willing to help us out. Does anyone here, who is from Massachusetts (south of boston), own one? We're not necessarily looking for operators (we have operating experience), but that wouldn't be out of the question. Would be willing to "rent" one. The shoot would last one day, approximately six to eight hours. Would be willing to pay, but would need a price quote (this is essentially a no-budget shoot). Not clear on exact date yet, but probably a Sunday. Anyway, help would be greatly appreciated. I look forward to responses. Steve House November 3rd, 2005, 05:23 PM Put a cookie or sugar close to your camcorder and watch as the ants crawl out to get the food, once out remove your camcorder and teach the ants a lesson or two. Reminds me of an old remedy for body lice involving a darkened theatre and extra salty popcorn ROFL Dan Diaconu November 3rd, 2005, 05:59 PM Put a cookie or sugar close to your camcorder and watch as the ants crawl out to get the food, once out remove your camcorder and teach the ants a lesson or two. you took the words out of my mouth. That's what I would do as well, just make sure they don't start staking the sugar in the....."nest"......(lol) Robin Hemerik November 4th, 2005, 11:55 AM Hi all, From december 6th to exactly one year later on, I will leave my tiny European home to explore Australia. Australia offers European travellers a so called 'working holiday visa': I am allowed to work during my stay. I'd love to do some short jobs in film business over there. Does anyone know good Australian websites with the latests vacancies for local projects? I am really looking for gaining more experience rather than money, since I only have done about 50 setdays as a prod. assistant. So no/low budget projects are fine too! Thanks in advance. I hope this is the right category for this topic. And beg you pardon for spelling 'vacancies' wrong ;) (can't change that anymore) Bob Costa November 5th, 2005, 08:08 AM Are you just taking a camera or a whole editing setup? If complete, maybe you can sell a series of "travel reports" to a local TV station (in Amsterdam)? I am thinking about a weekly 5 minute thing that they can use for news, filler between shows, whatever. If they are interested, they will tell you what they want/need for specs. Picking up gigs in Australia is good for learning/meeting people, but you should give some thought as to what kind of projects you can do while living your experience. Your unique perspectives might have a wide audience, depending on how you approach it. Are you a gardener? Music fan? Raver? Kayaker? I know this is not what you asked for, but I hope you find it useful... Robin Hemerik November 5th, 2005, 10:49 AM Thanks Bob, for your reply. It's a good idea, there are lots of local smaller stations in this area. Maybe they are interested, I'll contact them. But as you might have guessed, I was referring more to crew assistance jobs, like a PA, runner, driver, spark, etc. But your idea might even be better, since it will provide an opportunity to expand 'hands on camera'-experience. K. Forman November 5th, 2005, 11:46 AM From an article I saw, the Aussies are peeved at major studios. Big films like Ghost Rider with Nicholas Cage, aren't hiring locals for any of the work. But, Australia does sound like a cool place, specially if they let you work there on vacation... wait- isn't working on your vacation an oxymoron or something? Anyways, I even heard some years back, the Aussies would pay for you to live there, providing you brought a needed work skill. Alecks Purifoy November 5th, 2005, 05:13 PM im STILL looking for a DP in Kansas City! Mickey Stroud November 8th, 2005, 05:37 PM Are you locked into Thanksgiving weekend for your shoot? If so, it's doubtful I could help you. If you could do it the following weekend it's possible I could be available. I have some experience, lights, mic and a GL2 or a XL1 available to me. You can see an example of my work, Cactus Cafe, at www.independentfilmforum.com (you will have to register- but it's Free) or episode 27 at www.ladyxfilms.com. Mickey Stroud Ray Lane November 8th, 2005, 07:12 PM Greetings, South of Boston, in Norwood, is a company called The Camera Company. They can get you a DVX for the day. www.cameraco.com Ray Lane Muhammad Zuberi November 9th, 2005, 11:29 AM Hey, We have a simple project for this weekend (Sat Nov 12 to Mon 14) to record a series of lectures...(talking head up at the podium, really). Instead of renting equipment from Vistek, I wonder if someone would be interested in helping out. The budget is limited so this may be more for the hobbyist/student. (I think). Should have own equipment (XL2, GL2 etc... plus a good quality wireless mic). No editing or complicated shots...just record the speaker! This is around the GTA area. Let me know. MZ Michael Salzlechner November 9th, 2005, 04:33 PM We could use someone to shoot video on Saturday Nov 12 2005 in Miami Kendall area This would be to shoot ice skating all day from about 7:30a - 7p or so. We are shooting with an XL2 but could use a second shooter. Equipment would be required something that does well in low light with tripod and everything. Not a high budget thing so if anyone is interested please contact me UPDATE: The required time would be from 7:30am to about 1:30pm not to 7pm as initially mentioned Mike Spike Spiegel November 12th, 2005, 01:18 PM bump!

Let me know prices etc.. my site at the moment www.rollingcloudz.com ww.rollingcloudz.com/photography Thanks Quinn Quinn OConnell November 18th, 2005, 05:56 AM Spike, my work email.. quinn.oconnell@lgim.co.uk Luis Caffesse November 18th, 2005, 08:35 PM My apologies for the cut and paste job, I don' t do this very often. I got a call today from a friend who's working on Richard Linklater's latest movie, "Coyote." They are looking for footage for playback on scenes they are shooting on Monday and Tuesday. They had footage coming in, but had some sort of shipping problem and now won't be getting their footage in time. So, I figured I'd put the call out here. They need 1 to 2 minutes of footage. They're looking for a Mexican Soap Opera, but if you have anything similar let me know. The footage must be clearable (i.e. you either have the rights to it, or you can get them). They're looking for someone who could upload the footage to a server so it could be downloaded over the weekend. PLEASE let me know if any of you have any footage that you think might work. I figured with as many people as we have here that we might have someone who shot a pilot or something. If you have any questions let me know. Thanks. Chris Scharff November 18th, 2005, 09:20 PM Well, in case anybody searches again for people in Atlanta, here's another shooter..... Bob Safay November 19th, 2005, 05:56 AM Hey Chris, how do you like the sticks? I ended up getting the 755b for the field. Bob Brian Doyle November 19th, 2005, 04:42 PM email sent Chris Scharff November 20th, 2005, 04:06 PM Hey Bob, The sticks were just what I was looking for. Just got a 3130 head for it too.

I am in the process of editing 5 hours of Hurrican Katrina video. Happy Thanksgiving. Bob Joel Matthew November 26th, 2005, 06:44 AM Need 2 DVX-100's or 100a's. Or, 2 XL-2's. 2 tripods. 1 light kit. If you have a remote zoom controller, that would be awesome. Pick-up on Friday mid-day. Return on the 12th late afternoon. Thanks. Richard Alvarez November 26th, 2005, 08:09 AM Joel, Check with Film Arts Foundation if you dont hear from anyone. www.Filmarts.org Charles Kerr November 27th, 2005, 01:16 PM I am interested in hiring a steadicam operator for a HD DVD on Napa Valley. The ideal situation would be a person who resides in the LA or Bay Area. I would anticipate shooting to take 3-4 days likely in March or April of 06. The DVD would center on traveling to from varies hotels, to wineries and restaurants in a limo with 3-4 couples. My email address is c.kerr@verzion.net Jonathan Jones November 29th, 2005, 12:35 AM Hi Joel, Welcome to the forums. Nice to have a neighbor on board. There is an outfit called "The Lux" near you in Napa. Based no their website, they have alot of stuff, or access to alot of stuff, and have alot of experience also, however, I tried to contact them about a month ago to send some business their way as I was looking to rent a whole bunch of gear for a big shoot - I thought either they may be able to rent gear or know where I could get it nearby...After a few calls and emails, I never heard anything from them, but since you are closer, stop by and see if they have any good deals for you or know a good local contact. The lux (www.thelux.com) is located on Jefferson St. in Napa. If you want to go a little farther, don't bother with Santa Rosa. The best you will find there would be a couple of dusty S-VHS camcorders from a rental outfit I know of. Their rate for the S-VHS is a minimum $100 per day. The same models can be found in good condition on ebay for around $30. Skip Santa Rosa. For the event I shot a month ago, I ended up renting from Corporate Media Systems in San Rafael. www.cmsrents.com Their website seems to be outdated because they don't list DVcams in their rental page, but they have 'em. They were awesome to work with, and although they may not stock as much gear as some larger outfits in San Francisco, I was pleased to find that they had a whole lot of great gear to choose from, and were very helpful in coming up with workable solutions for me. They don't rent XL cams anymore due to the headaches with clients abusing various components on the cam. They see it as an end-user item and more suited to someone familiar with its form factor and component setup. I did rent a bunch of DVX's from them however, and they were great. Give them a call and see if they can help you out. I was given the name of another outfit in San Rafael who is also great to work with, but it was after the fact and I can't remember who it was....but CMS was a real winner in my book. Just make sure you have enough $$ or credit to lay down for security on the gear. I found their rates to be very competitive in the rental field. Hope this helps. -Jon Mark Montgomery November 30th, 2005, 03:56 PM I'm looking specifically for a wide angle adaptor for the DVX100. Depending on price, I might be interested in a camera kit for a second cam. Need it this weekend. If you know any rental houses in the area, please pass info along. Thanks. Mark S Miller December 1st, 2005, 12:22 PM Need a video editor, or person of interest to edit wedding videos in Colorado. Work your own hours, on a sub-contract basis.
