Helping Hands from 2005

[Jesse Parsh]

Where are you from? Alot of cities have a chapter of the Indieclub. Look into this, the website is www.indieclub.com. This is a great way to meet people that will do stuff for free or really cheap. You are not going to get very experienced workers for free, but usually very hard working people. I know that I asked for help from people for no pay and I got a ton of responses. Personally, I would work for free if I was learning something and I think that is how alot of people are. Also, make yourself available to work for free on some other peoples' projects. If people see you doing others favors they will be more likely to help you out when you need it.

HINT: The *least* people should expect is credit and food. And anyone who is contributing materials should be paid back in expenses.

Also, expect to also volunteer on everyone else's projects as a payback.

I'm just south of Houston in Texas City and do weddings and industrials, some as far north as Conroe. We work a little less then 1 weekend a month, and we are members of the HPVA. I recommend checking them out if you haven't already. We use Sony VX-2000 and 2100, lav mics, minidisc, iRivers, etc. and Sony Vegas to edit.

Please submit your ideas! I'm interested in music videos, shorts and well, virtually anything else... with the exception of non-fiction!

Are you still in the US? Where are you in the US if yes? I got something you might wanna see. A short, I had wanted to shoot this summer but had to put it on hold when I found an investor to finance my first feature. But since we're still kinda between development and pre-production, I might be able to squeeze out this short project with someone(like you if interested) Holla at me. I'm in Baltimore.

Hello :)

I'm looking for a comtemporary pianist who would like to make a piece for a completed music video / montage.

The created piece is already here:
http://hindsightproject.com/mov/hsp_statement.html

I would like to feature original music for it so that it may be submitted to festivals and so on. If you are interested, please contact me.

Much thanks,
James

I seem to remember someone hanging around here from in or near Palm Bay. Well a project just dropped into my lap, and i may choose to subcontract it or part of it rather than drive 3.5 hours each way. I may even pass on it if I can't find local support. It will be a one day pre-construction shoot, low tech, shoot what they tell you, dupe the tapes for loss security, and send originals to me via courier. Early part of next week.

If interested, send me an email or PM ASAP.

Might anyone recommend a good equipment rental house in the Los Angeles or Orange County area? I'm going to be working on a PAL project soon and I'd like to rent out a PAL monitor and miniDV/VCR if possible. Any pointers are appreciated. Thanks everyone!
