I live in Paris.
 

I've been living in Paris for the past 4 years. Never got a gig on a french film or been hired by a French company. Maybe it's because I'm American. Maybe it's because I'm not white. Who knows.

I'm always the one hiring people, otherwise, I'd just be sitting at home. The French are always ready to take money from me.

Need FCP Editor in Paris
 

I am looking for an editor in Paris to edit an hour-long extreme sports video.

The video is one hour of eye candy set to music. I'm looking for an editor with a stylish, hip and out-of-the-box way of working extreme sports imagery and graphics. It's probably better if you've never worked with extreme sports imagery. I prefer someone who's had more experience with music videos or commercials.

This is a paying gig.

and now for something completely different (or so I hope)-Dec Balt Wed., need shooter
 

Hello!

I'm getting married Dec. 2, 2005 and I'm looking for a videographer/cam operator for the wedding. Wedding videographer experience is helpful but anyone who can shoot a good documentary is preferred. My fiancé and I would like to shoot a Christopher Guest style wedding mockumentary to ultimately edit into a (personal - friends and family) short film. No editing required, gear is supplied (HD1/HD10 - I'd like to have the 720p inspite of some of the cameras disadvantages). I'll be doing a lot of prep shooting so basically I'm looking for someone to continue with the camera while I'm doing the whole 'getting married' bit. The wedding is still roughly 10 months away so details are being worked out. Probably 4-6 hours, paying gig ($, food, etc), transportation can be worked out to/from, but pref. someone in the Balt/DC/Annap. area.

Email me at patrick at sunscapeweb dot com. I'm very flexible about everything (nothing's set in stone at this point - just the idea ;)).

Thanks!

Z1 owner in LA looking to get involved in some projects
 

I sold my marketing biz last year and took some time off to travel and now am getting back to being a fully functioning, contributing member of society. :)

I have actually participated in a few productions recently and now I am getting my Z1 this week. I have already used the FX1 for 5 days for an event last month.

I don't have much experience obviously so not expecting to get hired. At this point I just want to "be invloved" in some way. So if you need another camera or some help then hit me up. One option would be to just pay me a rental fee for the camera and you can operate it while I help out in other ways if you like.

I also have some Kino Flos, wireless, handheld, and lav mics if that helps.


Shoot me a mail to greggjacobson@gmail.com

BTW, I am in Santa Monica


Cheers!

Hey Greg - why not hook up with James Hurd?
 

Okay, I hate to play matchmaker... but James Hurd who posts here a lot under the "Alternative Imaging" forum is developing an adapter system to fit 35mm SLR lenses on vid cameras. Here's currently testing with his own DVX-A and has hinted he'd like to try out his system with Sony FX1/Z1... He's in Southern California - why not check out his posts and maybe you guys can hook up?

I'd try to encourage other Southern Cal. Sony HDV'ers to consider the possibility as well.

Having tested the cam in Vegas and Premiere Pro both with Magic Bullet, I'd say the only thing left for Sony HDV'ers looking for the "film look" is some sort of DOF capability...

Magic Bullet gives it the right "color"
and deinterlacing in Prem. Pro and exporting as progressive via Mainconcept Mpeg-pro HD gives it "film cadence"

Now some decent system (without paying through the nose for p+s technik) for DOF will complete the puzzle.

Oh, I'm not trying to start another "film vs. video" debate here, guys... pls. don't flame me.

I'm just trying to help Greg out - seems like he's keen to work on something interesting - well, maybe this could be cool...

Wish I was in sunny Cawl-eee-four-nya, as your Governor would say...

Movie in West Palm needs help....
 

I am shooting a movie in the West Palm Beach, FL area. It's a short movie and I could use a boom mic operator for starters. Anyone have another GL2 and a tripod that wants experience and credit for helping on a movie, that would be good too. Movie is horror based but more like realistic horror not slasher type. Email if you want to work on a film.

You will get a copy of the film on DVD if you help me with any part of it. I might need a expert in After Effects to create small digital effects later on if you are really good.

I want a reflection of video footage to be seen in the eye of who is watching the film. Stuff like that. For this, you don't need to live close. We can just exchange the footage. Close would be better, but oh well.

Can't pay.....I'm broke. Not even the actors are getting paid. They just want the experience.
