Hi Nate,

Your post caught my eye for two reasons. We shoot with the Panasonic HMC150 and we will be in Minnesota next week to give a two day presentation with the Minnisota PVA.

European Video Project

My name is Simon Duncan. I am Australian Independent Film maker living in Angers, FRANCE. I have been living in France since 2006 making my own films.

I am wanting to create a film/video project.

I am wanting to create a website with video’s from various locations and people throughout Europe. The idea being to create a personal window of individuals, their city and passions. Each video would be 4 to 5 minutes in length with footage and interview of the individual and their city.

If people are interested and want further info please contact me.
This is a non paid project.

In the meantime you can look at my personal website to see some of my current video work.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Regards

I would require someone to shoot for one day in 1080i PAL in the following locations:

Sao Paolo
New York
Hong Kong

I will provide a local contact who would handle transportation and permits for the locations I need shot. the local contact would be present during the shoot. In addition to the specified locations I would also need some general footage of the city, especially urban mobility. (no client present for the city shots, you may do this at your own discretion)

All the footage needs to be transferred to hard disk, the local contact will handle payment and courier the disk to me.

If you are in any of these locations please contact me at on@abaku.net

The ideal candidate already has relationships with Hollywood rental houses and production companies. Perhaps you are already a sales rep for XYZ in Hollywood and are looking to moonlight for some extra cash. Fantastic opportunity for someone who is creative, motivated and technically orientated.

We design and manufacture 3D stereoscopic rigs for live action production. Must have a working knowledge of production particularly on the camera end, 3d knowledge is advantageous but we can bring you up to speed on those details. Looking for someone who can canvas Hollywood and the world to generate leads, assess needs and close deals. Attractive commission on each unit sold. Great potential for growth in the film and TV industry. We have solid products you can get behind with more coming.

The Marketing Communications office of U of Md College Park's Business School is hiring a full-time videographer/editor (more editor I think) on a renewable contract.

Here's the web address for the job ad.

https://jobs.umd.edu/applicants/jsp/shared/position/JobDetails_css.jsp?postingId=139457

I used to have this job, after a few years of increasing budget pressures they decided they really needed someone cheaper when contract renewal came around.

They're all friendly people and you'll get to work a lot with a former television producer who, while she wants lots of control over editing, really knows how to plan a shoot, interview, and write a solid script. Feels like semi-pro to pro corporate/agency video work.

Get your contract renewed for a year or two and you'll start to get health benefits even as a contract employee. You'll also get to work with a nice 8-core Mac Pro system with final cut suite 2 and adobe cs3 master suite that's technically really up to spec for whatever they need.

However, even if you can do everything they want in the job description well, I don't think you can make close to $25 an hour working there to start or anytime soon. And there will be a few days of mandatory unpaid leave around spring and winter break as long as the state has budget issues. They do give you generous amounts of paid vacation time though so that's kind of a wash.

Also, through much of spring and fall they (responding to outside pressure) may rush and overload you as they're mostly marketing folks who don't know how long some video things take to do. So you'll have to protect the time needed to finish your stuff on time while still keeping them happy.

It was an excellent first full-time video job for me, maybe it will be for one of you. They want a moderately fast and fairly skilled but not necessarily experienced final cut editor who works well in a team of non-video marketing people under frequent pressure, and, this is important, they don't want to pay very much.

You can see some of the work I did for them at YouTube - SmithBusinessSchool's Channel (http://tinyurl.com/example-videos)

Hi I need a Tokina 11-16mm lens for a Canon 7D and a 30" to 38" DP slider with the tripod unless I can attach it to my Miller head.

Need it by June 26th.

I can also pick up in Sacramento where the event is being held. Will be returned the next day.

Hey friends,

I'm a sophomore up at Notre Dame, back home in Atlanta for the summer.

I'll be shooting my short film Red Tape probably the third-fourth week in July and will be shot on Canon 7D, maybe XHA1 and an HV30.

I decided to post here to elicit any kind of help and to meet local enthusiasts. I'm really looking for anyone with an Indieslider, 7D, 5D, lenses (especially canon L and tokina super-wides) any kind of sound experience/equipment, any experience in prop building, or any equipment that could be useful.

I don't have any funds to pay, but I believe it will be a fun learning experience for everyone involved.

I WILL, pay to rent lenses however. Looking for Zeiss primes, ultrawides (10 ~ 14 mm)

If you ever need any favors in return I will definitely lend a hand :)

We all gotta start somewhere, I'm just trying to get my feet off the ground!

Just giving this a shot, if interested, shoot me an e-mail. kzhuang@nd.edu

Here's my vimeo Kurt Zhuang's videos on Vimeo (http://vimeo.com/user361397/videos) ; there's nothing substantial on there besides some clips.

Cheers!

We are beginning production on our second cable TV series, operating from the North Shore (Mandeville/Covington). We will need shooters and an editor. Some travel for the shooters will be involved.

Contact Tom Gresham. tom@guntalk.com

Hello Tom...PM Sent

Tom, as a fan of the show please don't hesitate to contact me if you need anything in NC.

Email sent. I'd be glad to talk with you about working together.

Wedding and event editor needed. Final Cut Studio 3 necessary. DSLR footage converted to ProRes (LT) supplied on an external drive shipped to your location. Payment by the hour upon completion based on the time invested. email your system specs, experience and samples to weddingfilms at gmail.com.

Thanks!

Tom, as a fan of the show please don't hesitate to contact me if you need anything in NC.

Thanks, Jerry. I just keep creating new stuff. I don't know how to do this, but I keep learning! If you wait until you know what you are doing, you won't get anything done.

ESPN2 is dropping all of its outdoor programming at the end of the year. There was, as you might imagine, a rush for available time slots on other networks. Versus is now the largest cable network carrying outdoor programming. We started there last year with the first show I've owned (I've created and produced shows for other people), and just finished shooting the second season of that series.

So, what the heck? We jumped in and grabbed a good time slot, and now we are creating a second series. Gonna be fun, no matter what. That's a rule I have. If it's not fun, we don't do it.

Never know when we might shoot an episode in the Carolinas. Shoot me an email, if you would, so I have the contact info. We hop around a lot.

Tom

I need to get in contact with a professional videographer for a project that involves 2-3 days of shooting in a electronics factory environment in Shanghai. We need a reliable, skilled photographer to shoot according to a storyboard and deliver different creative shots in a very high quality, both creative and technical.

Anyone who can help, or who knows somebody that can handle such a job?
Please send me a p.m.

Bjorn

I have a audio source, vocal, that is distorted, it peaked out of and on the whole time. I've tried Soundsoap and Soundforge demos, but I'm sure other people have better software out there. So does anyone want to give this a shot, I'll pay them for their time if they can clean it well. You can email me or just post here, doesn't matter. Thanks in advance for your time.

China Film and Video Production Services (http://www.parchedcamel.com/index.html)

Thank you very much. Contact is established.

Bjorn

You're getting fingerprints on that rifle barrel, Tom. You know better'n that.

They wipe off and as long as you don't put it back in the safe like that your fine.... (for those of you not familiar with blued firearms, fingerprints cause rust and need to be wiped down/cleaned before you store them)

I have "poison fingers." Acid in skin oils really pits gun finish. So, I'm really careful to wipe down guns.

It's no problem to handle the metal as along as you protect the metal before putting it away.

I relocated to New Zealand, and I'm beginning to think it was a mistake.

How would I go about finding entry-level work in video production or video editing in Austin? I'm not in a financial position to take an internship, unfortunately.

I'm highly interested in doing this for you. Please reach out to me. Trying to send you an email now.


Thanks
Nicole

Hey everyone in Florida who has a pro-level/prosumer HD camera and tripod!

If you're interested, please let me know if you'd be willing to shoot some daylight wide shots (on a tripod) of people celebrating the 4th of July in a park. It'd be cool if there was some sort of amusement park-type thing going on, or even just places with food and activities, but it's not 100% necessary. If you can, please be careful of faces--hence the wide shots. I actually don't need too much, just enough for my project.

I can't pay, but will credit you. And if you get some awesome fireworks shots, that would rock, too!

Please let me know if you can do it. I need it in 1080p24, but I'll be okay with 1080p25 or 1080i60.

Thank you,

Heath McKnight

ps-The reason why I say Florida is because it's for a project based in Florida (South Florida, to be precise). I need shots without mountains or hills in the background; if someone can get shots without those in the b.g., it's okay if it isn't set in Florida.

Looking for camera work in the midwest. Have experience with Canon and Sony. I currently have a Canon XL2 and a Canon XH A1

anybody interested?

Can't do Sydney Australia. Can do Perth Australia.


Here's a few links to vision of what the city looks like.

Can shoot on Sony PMW-EX1, Silicon Imaging/P+S Technik SI2K and Super16mm motion picture film.

Sunday, August 15th in downtown Seattle from about 6 to 10pm.

I need an extra set of hands to shoot b-roll on my HV20 on a tripod. Super simple gig. It's for my cousin's wedding - I'm going to be busy on Steadicam for the ceremony - so I just need a second set of hands (need to bring nothing but yourself) to shoot for the ceremony and first ~20 minutes of the reception. Dress would be simple pair of black slacks and a black t-shirt. I don't have tons of money to pay, but it will be enough to at least make it worth your while.

Only real requirement I have is that the operator is good with slow pans on a liquid head, and can frame simple shots well.

edit: As an afterthought - if you anyone has an xha1 or equivalent they could bring to the above gig, I could offer a bit more compensation.

Hi Chas, If you haven't found one yet, maybe I can help. Send me an e-mail and we could talk about it. I have sony Z7U with wireless lapel mic, a 5DII and 7D.

Hi Chas

Sent you an email - let me know...

SONY EX1R and other pro gear.

Kent

simple interview 2 people in their conference room (one at a time). No more than 1 hour including setup and teardown. Need HD format (either 720 or 1080) tape or file is fine. Will need lights.
This needs to happen in the next week so please contact me for details asap!

This is a reshoot so the interviewees will know what they need to say ( about 5 min per person) and producer will either direct via skype or phone.

Hi,

My company recently finished a video for a new product. see: YouTube - OnGARD Security Door Brace: Stops Burglars In There Tracks! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qaYbeU9XbS8)

I now require some affordable short clips for our upcoming website. Several 30 second clips, 3 minute instructional videos for additional products etc. Basically we are seeking a all around person who can shoot, light and handle sound. I own a new Panasonic AG-HMC40, tri-pods and basic lighting which the individual is more then welcome to utilize. However I have no boom mic etc.

If your schedule is flexible, your creative, experienced, and fun to work with.. then please drop me a line.

I am ready to get started.

Thanks so much

Jordan
email: jordan@globalsecurityexperts.com

PS. I possibly will need your services on a fairly regular basis.

Did I forget to mention it's a paid gig? HaHa!
Need some responses ASAP...Thanks!

Kent - shoot me another email...I can't seem to find yours. Thanks!

Sent you another one, let me know.

Need quotes/contact info for a 2-man crew shooting Canon 7D in Sacramento. One day corporate gig filming in late August. Project consists of a few interviews and b-roll at a business. Need shooter, interview lights, audio for interview. Would be interested in accessories like slider or small steadicam if available.

Send quote and link to demos directly to me at russ@214media.com.

Thanks!

I can do sound and I have equipment. Please check your email.

Thanks
Nicole

I'm putting together a bid for a client and need a third camera/shooter. Camera needs to be a Sony NX5U to match my other two cameras. The project is documenting seminars and breakout sessions in Orlando. If interested, please provide me your day rate for you and your camera package and a brief bio. Thanks!

Hi folks, I'm looking for a canon 5d mkii or 7d cameraperson in September based in Glasgow or Edinburgh, Scotland for a public sector film. Experience of either camera is essential and if you have any other interesting equipment, all the better.Shooting will take place over 5 days in Glasgow, Edinburgh and Inverness September or early October. Transportation will be provided. Get in touch. cheers, Kathleen

I am filming a series of interviews at an office located in central London on August 2nd. There are 4 interviews in total, between two or three people taking most of the day from 10 until 6. This is a very likely going to be an on-going requirement, with at least 2 further filming sessions over the next few months.

I could also benefit from some tutorial on this kind of shoot, more like guidance really. I have shot several before and have been pleased with the results, but I believe I could really do with learning a little more about filming in this field, specifically lighting. I would like to try and combine using a freelance, and learning from someone with more experience about lighting, sound, and technique.

If someone was willing to do this as a day of freelance work, that would be great. This would also be with a view of working on not just the series of interviews on future dates, but other similar work. Please let me know if you think you can help?

Thanks

Matthew

Hi Matthew,

I've sent you an e-mail about this with a recommendation. If you didn't get it please send me one via the forum, or a web search for me will reveal all my contact details.

I need a B roll shooter for a wedding in Mystic, Ct on 8-14. This will be for the ceremony only. Must be an HD format. Thanks.

In need of a shooter in St. Louis. Looking for someone with HDV-level gear. So a camera something like a Sony Z1U, Panasonic HVX200, Sony EX-1, etc. Our in-house format is HDV, but we can read CF and SDHC cards, or can provide a portable hard drive to transfer footage to.

Shoot would be of some set up scenarios at an emergency air transport facility. No dramatic scenes, basically "staged" b-roll (if there's such a thing!). Could possibly need basic light kit, or reflectors. No production sound needed (camera mic for ambient is fine).

The shoot date has not been set yet, but will need to be in the next 2 weeks. We will set you up with the facility to arrange exact shoot times.

If you are interested, please respond with what camera you have, a brief statement of your experience (or a resume if you have it), and your day and 1/2 day rate (1-person crew). If you don't want that info posted here on DVINFO, then please email to:

rneidig (at) hsi.com

Hi all,

Can anyone recommend a good videographer in Madagascar (or who travels there) to shoot people/places/flora/fauna for a small museum project?

Or does anyone have good stock HD footage of same? There is plenty available in various libraries, but most seems to be old SD.

We have a budget, but not enough to send out our own dedicated crew.

Thanks.

Do you still need a shooter? If so, I am interested.
