I'm looking for something in the way of editing. I have 3 years experience with FCP. I have my own PowerMac G5 with plenty of storage. I've edited commercials, music videos, narrative, and documentary footage.

Erick von Schulz · January 2nd, 2006, 05:54 PM

Hello,

I have an HD camera and a 35mm adapter, plus lighting, real time edit suites, render farm and more more more.. I have been a little lazy lately. But I want to put together a few short films. So I am looking for a few fellow filmmakers that want to get involved... I would post my email but I get to many spam messages if I do.. Reply to this thread and we can arrange something...

Thanks,
Erick

Chris Barcellos · January 2nd, 2006, 06:09 PM

Hey Eric-

I m from Elk Grove. FX1, VX2000, and some similar editting capabilities, though nothing realtime at this point. (I was running Pinnacle Pro 1 with RT editing, but with HD, have removed board...)

Have always threatened to get involved in filming a movie--- but have been more the wedding, event video guy... My primary vocation is attorney...

Looking to do a "serious" first short film at some point, and have been working with a nephew and my son in that direction. Also have a friend working on a screenplay, but I see that a ways off.

Which 35 adapter and camera are you using? Ive got plans to build on of the spinning disk version ordered on line with their ground glass.

Hey all.. hope all is going well with the post new year and christmas. I've come once again to seek dvinfo's expertise. Well actually i've come to inquire if there are people in Vancouver who are interested in helping film a wedding.. namely mine! egads!

Ah yes, i've done and bit the bullet and did indeed propose to my fair lady Christmas of 2005- Elated she was as was i, till we started planning our wedding budget. The reality of the financial monster gripping us in it's money grabbing claws soon left us clutching for the proverbial straws.

Thus i've come to seek your help/guidance/advice. We've tentatively set a date, the May long wknd 2007 (either May 19th or 20th) and it has been left up to me to find the videographers for our wedding. In all honesty we don't have too much of a budget hence i'm wondering if anyone here would be interested in helping film the ceremony/reception for the paltry sum of $250.

Ideally we'd like 2 videographers (making $250 each) as i will be doing all the editing/dvd authoring etc (oh woe is me- i don't even get to rest AFTER the wedding) ..

I will be taking care of all the expenses (tapes/lavs/a gas allowance if we decide to film, er marry outside the vancouver area) but i would certainly love it if the videographers would have their own camera equipment (Gl2's, Xl2s, PD170's). Oh and of course we'll be feeding you during the actual reception.

If the pay seems unreasonably low, i'd be definitely willing to listen to offers- perhaps we can trade part work/cash.. i.e i film YOUR big day hehe or any other event for similar hours.

Again i'd definitely love to hear offers so please send them to my email vgurung@shaw.ca

oh and if anyone has any recommendations for photographers, i'd truly appreciate it. Thanks!

Thanks very much!

Hi all, are you experienced taping and editing HDV footage with Sony FX1/Z1 using PPro with Aspect HD?

I need one exprienced editor located in NYC (preferable) or Nothern NJ, for a project.

We have all the editing hardware and software set up, need a knowlegeable camera operator / editor who knows how to work with HDV and how to output to different formats, including WMV 1280x720.

Please spread the word if you know anyone who may be interested.

Immediate need - please contact me directly at alex@fancyflix.com

Thanks!

Shannon Rawls · January 4th, 2006, 04:36 PM

I'm producing a small gig coming up this weekend. I need a third Z1. I like it here @ DVINFO, so for the first time I'm going to try and hire the good people of this community instead of some crazy drug-user at Craigslist or Mandy. (been there, done that) If this works out, I'll start coming here for all my indie crew.

I need you and your Sony HVR-Z1U. FX1 will NOT work. I need to synch all 3 cameras and run the timecode @ free-run TOD and only the Z1U will do this.

It's all day Saturday & Sunday January 7th & 8th in the valley/l.a. off the 5 fwy. We're shooting @ Atwater Village Studios for this one: http://www.atwatervillagestudios.com/

I'm paying $275 bucks a day ($550.00 total) in cash. I know it's not allot but give me a break, that's all I could squeeze out of the budget on this one. *smile*

Call me at my office immediately and YOU MUST BE AN ACTIVE MEMBER OF THIS COMMUNTY to get the gig and you need to be able to make it to a pre-production meeting tomorrow evening. No exceptions.

I need an XL-2 shooter for some B-roll from East Atlanta. To be more precise, I need mostly B-roll of the village of East Atlanta and maybe a few very quick man on the street type interviews. I hate to even call them interviews because it's basically one or two questions. I am thinking of 1-2 hours of time and I can give more specifics when you email me with your availability. i'm fairly flexible on time of day to do the shooting (i.e., I'm not worries about matching my foootage from my shoot last week) but it needs to be completed pretty soon. I'm only able to pay $50/hour. I know that's quite low for using your own gear, but that's what I have. So for the whole thing, it'll end up being between $50-150 (depending on how long you take). Anyways, email for more info. Feel free to pass this along to anyone you know who might be interested.

Some clarifiying questions:
What is the duration of the project (or at least the editing aspect)?
What type of editing is it?
Does all your editing work have to be done on site?

I may be able to help or reccomend someone if I know more.
THanks,
Daniel

Erick von Schulz · January 4th, 2006, 08:12 PM

Chris,

I have 2 35mm adapters.. The M2 by Redrock micro and the Letus35A.. I have 2 movies under my belt.. nothing great.. But I learned alot. I wrote and directed them.. One is in post production now... I also have a pretty good collection of 35mm lenses.... I just finished writing a short.. In a few weeks I will rewrite it and be ready to shoot..... I have become somewhat of a stickler for cinematography lately. So if you want to get involved with a great short. Email me at syberstalker2000 at yahoo.you know what...

Tim Hyten · January 4th, 2006, 08:19 PM

Spike,
I am interested in getting site up and running very soon.

My email is: digitalhourent@hotmail.com

Thanks so much.

Jamie Baughman · January 5th, 2006, 01:09 PM

It's not a big deal, but I wanted to ad that I'll also pay for tapes, shipping, and an hours' pay ($50) travel time. Also, this is just raw footage. No editing needed.

Thanks and again, please pass this along to anyone who's interested.

Alex Raskin · January 5th, 2006, 03:04 PM

Project is basically ongoing.

A cameraman/editor needed to videotape and edit the indoors footage in midtown NYC.

Must be located in NYC and have experience with Sony FX1-Z1 (or other HDV) cams, and PremierePro with Aspect HD.

We have the editing suite, you will shoot and edit on our equipment.

Must be very reliable and courteous.

Project entails videotaping patients in doctors office as the doctor performs dental procedures.

Immediate need, plus recurring projects like this throughout the year.

Let me know your experience and rates.

Shannon Rawls · January 5th, 2006, 05:37 PM

Position filled.

thanks guys.

Daniel Rudd · January 6th, 2006, 11:31 AM

thanks Alex, I'll check around. I think one of my friends from college might be within an hour of you (although I'm not sure). I'd have more suggestions if it was something that could be done from a distance. Did you try the free classifieds on "Craigslist.org" it's pretty active for NYC

Scott Hayes · January 6th, 2006, 07:32 PM
