Looking for a shooter for a full day February 10 shoot in Salem, Oregon. Prefer Canon C100. But C300, Sony EX1 or 3 are also fine. Other cameras of similar quality would be fine too. Not looking to spend a ton of money on this. So would only want to hire a one person crew. Would involve filming a meeting, some interviews, and lobbying footage at the state capitol. Wireless mic, tripod would be required. Lights not needed.

Email me with some demo footage and pricing at bsherman@aft.org if interested.

Hi, I'm filming a green screen shoot on February 11th in East Hanover, NJ. Looking for someone to ride co-pilot as I work the camera and actors. Primarily looking for someone who has worked with green screen in the past. I'm familiar enough to know to keep the talent as far from the screen as possible, light them well, and keep the light even on the screen. I'd prefer to have someone there to keep me on track with the lighting as I get distracted by the other stuff.

Let me know if you're interested. Thanks!

Hello,
I am a videographer at a wilderness school called Teaching Drum Outdoor School, located in northern Wisconsin. We currently have hundreds of hours of footage that we are turning into documentaries, YouTube shorts, and instructional videos. In 2014, I filmed 350 hours of HD footage of last summer’s intensive wilderness program, and will be starting to edit a feature-length documentary soon.

You can see a teaser for the Guardian Intensive Training documentary at:
What is a Guardian? - YouTube

Also, our YouTube channel contains our evolving collection of instructional videos:
Teaching Drum - YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/user/theteachingdrum)

I am looking for someone to help create YouTube content and assist me in the production of our upcoming documentary. They would need to be willing to live on-site on the Teaching Drum campus. We provide room and board and a small stipend. I am willing to train them on our equipment, if needed.

My interest in videography is that of a truth-seeker. I see it as an opportunity to dive deeper into the subjects that inspire me. Through my story-telling video work, I get to examine my own biases and beliefs. Our programs approach learning and relationship through a qualitative approach; rather than a list of ‘whats’ we focus on the process of the ‘how.’ Similarly, video editing here does not revolve around deadlines and goal-oriented stress, but rather an appreciation for the art and the learning it inspires.

Because we have such an abundance of video footage to process, we are looking for someone who either has experience with video editing, or the potential to learn quickly. He or she will have the chance to create instructional videos as well as collaborate on full-length documentaries, such as the currently 50% complete Inner Tracking video...
http://youtu.be/KEMr1ry-_qw

... and the Guardian Intensive documentary(see above link). Future filming projects at the school may also create opportunities for hands-on filming experience.

Due to the amount of training needed for the position, we are looking for someone who can commit to at least 3 months.

Teaching Drum Outdoor School is a non-profit community where over a dozen people live and work to maintain the school’s programs, publish books, create media, and foster a connection with the Earth through a balanced approach to work, our relationships, and with our environment. We gather and harvest a large portion of our own food from the wild, and much of our infrastructure is repurposed and built by our skilled volunteer staff.

Living at Teaching Drum also avails you to the many activities of the school, a list of which can be found at Teaching Drum Outdoor School | Nadmadewining Community (http://www.teachingdrum.org/nadmadewining.html?page=volunteer#nav).

Compensation for the position is free room and board, featuring an organic paleo diet, living in a rustic a Northwoods community, shared vehicle use, opportunities to learn outdoor living skills, and a $350 stipend. FYI - Our community is drug and alcohol free and we do not allow pets. For more information on Teaching Drum Outdoor School, visit
Teaching Drum Outdoor School | Nadmadewining Community (http://www.teachingdrum.org/nadmadewining.html)

For any questions on the position, contact me at:
adjul@teachingdrum.org

To apply, send an application request to volunteer@teachingdrum.org

Hmmm, I should keep an eye on this subforum more often.
Although it is still around 2,5 hour drive, I am located in The Netherlands.

Who is available? Noon call time. North Central Dallas area.

Hi,

Looking for an interview to fill out a corporate piece that's already been shot. High-rise office building in West LA / Santa Monica. Three light kit, one camera, lav mic. I literally need a single :15 snippet to include in the final piece, but the producer will want to ask a few questions to get there - maybe a half hour of setup and a 10 minute interview.

I appreciate that talent behind the camera is not based on gear, but I need someone who looks the part - no DSLRs, no handycams, please have something the client will believe is a "real camera".

This piece runs the NEXT DAY, I will need to edit in what you shoot later that same day. Please be able to drop the video in a dropbox/ftp/google drive shortly after the shoot for a same-day edit.

I can show you the remainder of the piece so you have something to try and match.

Producer will be there to ask the questions and handle the interview subject.

Please quote a rate.

I need someone to shoot a factory tour video; footage only. Very small location j/o junct.1 of M6. If anyone in the vicinity with the the time to do it please contact me for details. I have a previous sample/shot list to show what is required. Would like it to be done this week. Can be shot on any HD format that can be sent uncompressed via Dropbox. Payment by bank transfer. Sorry this does not carry enough payment to cover travel costs.

I am working on a historical documentary and one of the subjects lives in Naples Florida. Is there anyone in that general area that could shoot an interview for me? It would take maybe two hours. You can respond with work samples and rates to phil dot centerstreet at gmail dot com. Thanks!

Check your email, sent info on a source there who may be able to point you to someone...

I need to immediately hire a contract editor for a potentially long-term series of projects (lots of work in the pipe already). Must be comfortable with Final Cut Pro X, Photoshop, etc.

Ideal candidate can also take on other imaging projects as well, such as occasional secondary camera work and some asset editing in Photoshop.

Pay is DOE, but what I'm really looking for is someone that can really crank out material and has a good understanding of building a narrative around editorial content. Work is primarily in the automotive editorial and motorsport genres.

I'd be willing to take on a less experienced editor if they're willing to put in the effort. Must be based in or near Seattle. Work at my place or yours.

Email me: ryan - at - mediaspigot.com

Wish there wasn't an international border between us! I've seen the work you do, especially the motorsports stuff...

Well, that and the FCPX requirement...

Thanks Shaun! Move to the dark side of FCP X, you'll never go back! (Mua ha ha)

Horses for courses... I'm already an FCP7 editor learning Premiere... how much do you expect my 43 year old brain to retain?!?!?

By the way, the #ain'tcare Ken Block video on your site is WICKED!

If I wasn't about to begin a 6 month engagement with MLB I would be all over this. The stuff you put out is awesome and right up my alley.

Thanks guys, really appreciate it.

Update on this post: I found someone that I think will work out.

Bumping up for some help - I need to learn this camera and the book / practice is NOT helping

Get me a cell and I'll call u tomorrow,I've had mine for 6 years,know it well

So here I was, a good six months out and organising a possible pro shooter for some video work. It was to film a 20 min segment ahead of a conference at which the subject was speaking (via video).

We'd emailed video specs to record to, in case the academic institution was able to do it in-house. More recently we had been chasing up the video as it is now two weeks before the event.

The good news is that we've received video files via DropBox. The bad news is that he recorded it off the webcam on his laptop.

It's hard to know which way to get all philosophical about this. At least we have the content (and I can do some cleaning up of all the audio to make the most of it). I mean ... it's only the opening speaker for the conference.

Thanks to all of those who were good enough to reply ... and might have wondered what happened in the end.

Hi

My name is Sam Knights and I am a composer/producer looking for projects to work on. I studied Classical Music at Leeds College of Music, where I won the Composition Award, but that doesn't mean I'm a pompous classical musician; I have extensive experience with pop and rock bands too, so I am good at making almost any kind of music.

If you want to hear examples of my music, visit www.samuelknights.snack.ws (http://www.samuelknights.snack.ws) - the most relevant music for you will be under the Soundtrack/Ambient subcategory, but feel free to explore the rest of the site.

Can't wait to hear from some of you and get to work.

I have been helping develop a bid to supply video training and production for a cluster of non-profit organizations in western Illinois, starting with a pilot of three organizations and expanding to involve roughly 20.

Due to the distance from my area and scale of this project I have decided to step away from the project myself. This will be a well-paid opportunity for the right person.

No one in the Orlando/ Daytona area???
Bruce Yarock

I'm in Orlando, but my main cams are the Panasonic GH4 and Sony NX5U. Are you open to renting?

Patrick,
Thanks for replying. I don't know if the client's budget would cover rent also. Does anyone in the area rent FS7's by the day? If so, any idea how much?
Bruce

This place isn't too far from Deland: Sony PXW-FS7 (http://www.thelensdepot.com/sony-pxw-fs7.html)

They do one day rentals, but they're closed on the weekend and seeing as you need it on a Saturday you would be forced to rent it for three days, unfortunately.

In Miami , they let you pick up the rental gear on Friday afternoon, return it Monday, and charge you one day,

We're hiring another editor for our television production business. We're in Mandeville, Louisiana (30 miles north of New Orleans).

This is a salary with benefits job.

Job listing is here.

https://productionbeast.com/jobs/315-editor-shooter

Just out of curiosity, do editors still have to physically be in a production house to edit? With everything in the cloud or servers nowadays, I edit everything at home, although the finished work/product will be shown in San Jose, New York, San Francisco, Hawaii...etc. In cases where there is no server, I've had portable hard drives sent in by Fed Ex.

Sure, it's possible to do editing from a remote location, but in our case, we need editors (we are hiring two) in the office. The job is actually for editing and shooting. We (producers) often sit with the editors to make sure we're getting what we need. For those two reasons (shooting as well as the direct collaboration), we need two more people in-house.

We have used production houses and editors who were not on site for several years, and there are just too many missed communications along the way.

We produce three television/video series (two are on three networks, each, and one is digital distribution), as well as DVDs, etc.

As is detailed in the link, the subject matter is primarily firearms, shooting, competition, etc.

Sorry I didn't read about this before. I live in Amsterdam and am willing and able to travel wherever a paid gig brings me! (even a 2 hour drive to Groningen... ;-) I also shoot with an EX3, among others.

So next time you're looking for a shooter in the Netherlands, let me know. I'm a documentary filmer who's done a lot of event registration and short (corporate) work.

Take care,

The bad news is that he recorded it off the webcam on his laptop.

Seriously? wtf, you don't have to post his details here but did the person you hired presented themselves as a professional videocompany? I hope you did not have to pay them in full.

Sorry for any vagueness.

To clarify, it was the academic (speaker) who recorded himself using his laptop and its inbuilt camera. There was no video professional involved, sadly.

Hi all, I'm posting this on behalf of a friend who is looking for someone to document a show for a great cause. The show is Thursday July 23rd in Montreal. Here is the info. Please email Jodi directly rather than PM'ing me. Thanks!



Some of the funniest comedians including Jimmy Carr, Bert Kreisher and Shaun Majumder will lend their time to perform free of charge for cancer patients who, through their participation in the special programs at the Hope & Cope Wellness Centre, are learning to cope with the challenges of cancer and to live well in the face of illness.

This year’s show at the Centre is being produced by Comedy Gives Back (CGB), the social benefit company that leverages comedy and technology to raise funds and awareness for various charities and causes. CGB creates groundbreaking initiatives that help transform the world through the power of laughter.

The show will take place in Montreal at the Hope and Cope Wellness Center - 4635 Ch de la Côte-Sainte-Catherine at 2:30 pm. We are looking for someone who has a camera and can film this special show and get some reactions from audience members. The time commitment would be approximately 2 hours. If you know of anyone who can lend their services, it would be appreciated.

Thank you!
