Our client needs a number of testimonial interviews shot in several US cities in early January. Each location is a separate job. These are:
Shreveport, LA
Kansas City, MO
Indianapolis, IN
Richmond, VA
Waynesville, NC (west of Asheville, NC)
Fremont, NE (east of Omaha)
Wilsonville, OR (south of Portland)

Required equipment include a professional HD camera, mic and light kit. Each job should take a couple of hours. We will provide the the subject’s contact information and will be up to you to schedule the interview at a mutually convenient time.

The deliverables will be the interview footage and location b-roll. You will need to backup the footage (in case something happens to it in shipping) and then 2nd day the footage to us on a thumb drive. You will be reimbursed for the those costs.

If you’re interested please forward your contact information, samples of your work and your half-day rate.

Hmmm. With all the fiscal cliff stuff going on, I must have missed the passing of that law.

I'm looking to add to my experience list, and I'd love to travel outside of the country. I currently run my own wedding videography business but given the chance I'd love to make some international connections and travel abroad learning with an experienced group. All film/video related positions are of interest.

Looking for an Adobe Premier Pro guru, someone who could consult for at our agency in Northern NJ. We already know the interface, and can do basic editing, but need someone who knows Premiere inside-out who can take us to the next level, guide hardware choices, color grading, etc. We use After Effects a lot and would be bringing AE comps into Premiere, so knowledge of that round-trip would be essential. Any leads appreciated! Thanks!

We are in production of a new show called “Animal Science", we are looking for specific animals for our show. We want animals in there natural habitat doing what they do best. The best footage will be of animals in action, and we want close-up shots of the animals.

"Animal Science" premiered in syndication last fall, it is an E/I (Educational/Informative) kids program designed to go behind the science of animals and what they do in the wild. "Animal Science", airs on over 150 U.S Broadcast stations representing 70 percent of the country's television households. We also produce 3 other long running E/I programs, " Wild About Animals:, "Awesome Adventures" and "Whaddyado".

I am posting on here looking for these awesome animal clips. If it's possible to get a list of animals in your library? We want about 1 minute of assorted clips per animal. The producer will of course need to screen all the footage and approve them. We would pay a flat rate per 1 minute of animal used on the show. You will also get a copy of the show on DVD and a credit at the end of the show. Please take a look at our website, and see some clips from our show.

These links are for your own amusement, nothing else. - Images of south western Australian bandicoots or quendas coping in a semi-urban environment. In their truly wild state, motion mages of authentic behaviours will be a lot more difficult to obtain.


BANDI SI2K.wmv - YouTube

NIGHT BANDITS.mp4 - YouTube


Obvious issues are :-

The ethics of feeding wild animals which have become challenged by urban expansion into habitat, chiefly the stress introduced by point-source supplementing food supply resulting in local overcrowding and competition.

Is there a positive payoff in that an endangered species survives numerically but at the expense of independence and possibly deleterious species alteration due to natural selection in an artificial environment that may adversely impact the diminshing true wild population.

Matt.

I did shoot those clips but do not do nature film work for a living. They were shot on the rear verander of my place. These little guys use the rather unkempt back garden and a fern thicket as a refuge.

It is one thing to set up a camera and let it roll in a controlled environment, another to try to locate these little guys doing their thing in the wild. I think a lot of the nature documentary footage on them would have to be done in a controlled environment like an animal refuge with borescope cameras for pouch views of the young etc..

The population swings between about two and five, up to ten I have seen when they have a bit of a breeding season. The fights between the males are so spontaneous and anywhere that it would require a lot of doing nothing else for weeks just hoping the contest will kick off.

There is another lucky clip on youtube of two males fighting on a path. They get up on their back legs like roos and wrestle. They do a sort of a jujitsu-style hip throw when one overpowers the other.


David Parer is our Australian nature documentary icon.

David Parer - IMDb (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0661357/)


He may have stock footage you can access. I have no connection with him or his production company except a very tenuous linkage via my old aunt and her friend Joan Parer who also lived in Roleystone around the time of WW2. Legendary Australian war cinematographer Damien Parer apparently was her brother.

Meryem Ersoz, who posts here under the Under Water Over Land threads here may have knowledge of nature documentarians in Eastern Australia.

If it is any use, you are welcome to the original SI2K camera files. There is little of extra interest on them other than the creatures parking their butts on the camera and blocking the view or the trembling rumbles when they sit on the mike pole.

I learned a lesson - I filmed with 3 JVC cameras in a new studio, these were iso for edits later if needed. I have no way of digatizing them. I guess JVC does not play well with my canon HV20 I use as a drop deck

Anybody help ... will need asap

Allan Black
January 29th, 2013, 04:00 PM
What JVC cameras were they? You can't transfer off one off those? Digitise to what format?

Cheers.

Your HV20 is 60i, so it's only normal that the 30P tape won't play.

I am looking for 'n place where I can rent video equipment in or around Jerusalem for an upcoming project. If someone here could point me in the right direction, it will be greatly appreciated.

I have googled this but since I have never been to Israel, I would rather hear from someone who has personal experience with this.

I just need some basic equipment:
1.) Probably HDV camera (Sony Z5,etc)
2.) Tripod
3.) Mics (shotgun + lavs)
4.) Lights

Thanks in advance.

My client (a Very Large Company) is doing a training in Santa Monica, CA on Tues 3/12 - Wed 3/13. I need a "back-of-the-room" video shot of the entire day, broken down into individual 720P Quicktime files. The audio might be available from a sound board, but if not, you'd need to put a shotgun at the front of the room to capture the audio. Most of the presentations will be people either at a podium or wandering in front of the room. The training room will be small-ish (maybe 50 people or so). No need for b-roll or multiple cameras. Please contact me with any questions. This is for professionals with their own camera gear and proficiency with video editing. Final files will need to be on a disk headed to me within 48 hours of the completion of the gig. Thank you!
Rate is $900/day for two days, including edits.

Hey Ottawa colleagues!

A client of mine in the health care area is looking to have a number
of short video pieces (1-2 minute clips, same location, same
participant, shot over a couple of hours ON LOCATION) shot in Ottawa
with a time schedule of the next couple of weeks.

I have offered to post this request for services here as we are unsure
if the budget can support me traveling to Ottawa for this piece.

You would be provided with interview questions aimed at deriving
semi-scripted responses from the participant on location.

You would be responsible for getting camera-shot media to the client
(ALL footage - not compressed).

Sync sound and long form recording is required so NO dSLR shooting on this one.

I would suggest Sony EX1/EX3 or FS100/700 or similar to cut against
what already exists.

Professional shooters only. No recent film grads.

As well, you would be required to relinquish all Intellectual Property
rights to the footage and would not be able to use the material in
your own promotions. Keep this in mind when you quote.

The subject matter involves First Nations material, specifically
around colonization and other sensitive/emotional subjects so
sensitivity of the parties involved is paramount. As well, you should
be aware that this material CAN cause an emotional response in
yourself as well. You MUST have a superior level of comfort going
into this proposal with that.

The exact dates are yet to be determined.

CAVEAT EMPTOR:
I have also submitted a quotation for this service that would see me
flying in if selected. My quote has already been submitted to the
client - rest assured, your quote is not being used to substantiate
mine.

I would suggest that with pre-planning, shooting on the day and
packaging up material for shipping that a full day rate is probably
appropriate but use your own judgement.

GEAR:
As mentioned earlier, an HD camcorder with sync sound (1080P - frame
rate to be discussed)
Location lighting - battery powered preferred Prepare for 2 - 3 point
lighting, daylight balanced.
Wireless lavalier (high quality - Sennheiser, Sony, Lectro) and/or
overhead boom mic (shotgun)
Tripod

Proper focus, exposure, white balance, composition and SUPERIOR audio
are all expected. No audio dropouts or wireless noise will be
accepted.

Email me at
roaddogmedia (at) gmail.com

and I can put you in touch with my client.

I used to have a JVC-HD1, which was 720p that would play tapes from HD-100, the ancestor to the 250. Maybe you could find an HD1 cheap on eBay or something.
