Looking for Producer
 

I'm looking for a creative talented producer to help bring our third spec commercial together.

So far we have few talented crew members volunteer their time.

If you live in Los Angeles or Studio City and interested, drop me a line at tangfilms@yahoo.com

So far, this a low budget project. All funding is going toward equipment, gas, and food.

Thanks for your time

I'll help you guys out but I can't really stay that long as I have an infant at home. Let me know when and where i'll come out.

Oh BTW I have a whole bunch of equipment, I have a jib crane, dolly, an XH-A1 and an HV20 as well as some lights and reflectors. Also have a greenscreen. I am studying special effects at the Art Institute, so I also know compositing within After Effects and some 3D with Max (Particles and modelling and animation) if you have sometime we can meet up and I can show off some of my work. I'm a huge fan of 28 days later would love to do something in the spirit.

Look, as long as you put a dirtbike or samurai sword in it, I'll love it....
(just kidding, don't do either of those!)

I'd love to stay up to date on the production of this and check it out when it comes out. Could you email me your website/production blog, etc...? I have a few places I could post it to help promote you.

Okay, we are still looking FYI

Wow is it really wise to leave your cell out on the forum like that? ;) It's nice to see some filmmakers in the area, maybe we should caloborate on something. I don't know if you guys know this but IFC is having a short film competition right now for the game called Assasins Creed, can't wait for that thing to come out. I'll be shooting a movie next week anyone want to come out and participate? I don't really need any equipment just acting talent and maybe some FX guys. I have a script just looking for some more ppl.

btw. sorry to hijack your thread :) But as I said I'm more than willing to help out on your movie on my off time.

Need Orlando HVX operator / PA for Sept Disneyworld
 

Just thought I would post here before going to the production houses. I need a couple guys to help with a shoot at Disneyworld. It is a pretty low-budget deal but the end product with be shown all over the world. It is a live concert shoot plus some stand ups for a TV show. I need the following:

- HVX owner/operator with experience shooting music, prefer someone comfortable with the P2 workflow who has some cards and a P2 Store

- AC who is VERY comfortable with the P2 workflow, we will be using P2 Genie or dumping from P2 Stores, experience with a 35mm adapter is a plus (most likely Brevis)

- PA with P2 experience, must be someone who can problem solve and adjust on the fly to the need, prefer someone who can operate a camera if needed


This shoot is for the Disney Night of Joy on September 7th and 8th, there may be a half day shooting on the 9th as well and I would like to have a production meeting on the 6th. For this reason, you need to be local within an hour of Disneyworld. The budget is limited but this IS a paying gig. You will also get copy and credit.

Looking for Specific Footage
 

Hey Guys, I'm looking for high quality fire releated footage. I own and operate a video website for firefighters and I'm in need of fire footage for my next DVD release. We pay for all the footage we use (usually $100 a fire). We need to find stuff like: firefighters working a fire, wrecks, fire trucks, etc...

Anyone have ANY ideas on where to start. I have a few freelance guys that provide me with footage in the Houston area. I personally shoot some news with my pd150, but I need MUCH more than just me and another guys footage.

Please email me at thebravestonline@gmail.com

my website is http://www.TheBravestOnline.com.

www.keepidahogreen.org


I built their website a few years back. It's an organization in Idaho comprised of a number of government agencies related to the environment and firefighting. I know they have a lot of footage, but I don't know if they would sell it or not. Might be a good place to start, though.

Trade my work for your experience?
 

Hey all. I would like to get better at shooting live events (weddings, recitals, etc) and in reading the wedding videography section of dvinfo came across the idea of volunteering with an experienced person for a while. I live in the Portland, OR area and have a XH A1 I can use. Anyone out there willing to take a beginner along to do some learning? Or any tips on other ways to get experience. I am very professional in demeanor and dress and can provide references if you would like. I have done some shooting of weddings and a short documentary for a non-profit...I am decent but would like to take my abilities up a notch or two. Thanks for any tips you can send my way. All the best-
Andrew

I wouldn't start off just with tips, try to assist a professional a few times, that's what I did when I started and found it to be my best invested time ever. If you ever would come to Belgium on a holiday I would glady take you along. :) Anyway, wish you luck in finding a "mentor"

I'm looking for a person with experience in the basic 3-point lighting with gear. We have a client that is needing video for their website. It will be paid but at this point I can't yet say how much it will pay until final negotiations are made with the client. The first video will run anywhere from 2 - 4 minutes and will be shot in an office setting.

Shooting with JVC GY-HD100U. If you have experience with lighting and are nearby, please send me a note so we can be in contact. I will soon have to provide a quote to the client and interested in locating a person first to determine fees.

Thank you,

ISO freelance producer/shooter in Vancouver BC
 

I need a short talking head/interview style shoot of a deaf author reading an excerpt from her book. She's in Vancouver and sadly they won't send me to take care of it myself. So I need someone who can find and light a location, provide sound for her and/or her interpreter (sometimes she speaks, sometimes she only signs, we're leaving it completely up to her which she prefers to do for this reading), and then send me the tape. DV preferred as I don't have decks for HDV or beta in-house. It's a short excerpt, plus a couple of questions about being a deaf actress and writer, so the whole thing should be a half day of work.

The dates are still unconfirmed, we're waiting on her, but will be sometime around September 10-15. If you're interested please send me your rates and a link to some samples.

Smile,
Kris

Hey Kris
If you don't get anyone, post this on Vancouver Craigslist. You'll get LOTS of people replying, guaranteed. I'd offer to do it, but you'll probably be able to find someone to do it on CL for half my rate. :)

Belguim? Sounds great!!! What kind of work do you do? I think you are very right that spending time with an expert is the very best way for me to learn...I just need to convince someone here local that they really need to have a new guy around :) Thanks for the encouragement...and if I make it to Belguim I'd love to follow you around for a bit!! Thanks.
Andy

If you manage to find it though, Belgium is so small if the plane stops too late you end up in germany. :D
I do mainly weddings solo and been at it for 3 years now, the "pro" I follow around was actually my father :) who has been filming for over 20 years. He"s allmost 65 and just does a few weddings per year now.
What you also could do is just send an email to all the videographers in your neigbourhood with the same text as in this topic, there must be one who could use an extra cameraman. I would do a few of these gigs for free however, I can't imangine a videographer turning an offer down like that, especially if they work alone. With the material you get from your own camera you can make your first demo as well so you have something to show to potential customers and before you know it you"ll be taking someone with you to show them the ropes :)

Hello, neighbor. I'm on 192nd Ave. and 34th st. I, too, shoot an XH A1. I've only been doing this part-time for one year, but I might have something to teach you. (My next gig is this Saturday in Washougal.) I also know some local professionals (also with XH A1 cameras, coincidentally) that aren't on dvinfo; I'd be happy to put you in touch with them. PM me for more info.

Noa-
Wow...cool way to learn...following your Dad. Yes...my plan is definetly to do this for free for a long while. I've thought about posting on craigslist to do a wedding or two for free or very minimal cost, but the need of a second camera has scared me off. I really enjoy shooting, but the cost of a second camera (even an HV20 to match the XH A1) and the need for a beefier desktop (right now I run Powerbook G4) is making me want to get a lot more experience before I shell out the dough and jump into this with both feet.

Daniel-
I sent you an email...let me know if you don't get it. Thanks,
Andrew

Monster Crayons Internship!
 

Hi Guys!

I've been visiting this forum since 2001, and I've learned so many great things to help my business, Monster Crayons, grow.

I know most of you already have your own business and would not be interested in being an intern, however, I know many of you have people offering to learn from you, but simply don't have the time or resources. So, if you know anyone who would like to get into the great field of event videography, then please have them check us out.

Thanks!

Details Here...

Link says it's an unpaid internship. Best of luck with that.

Hi Chris,

Thanks for your feedback.

We actually get a pretty good amount of applicants each time we put up the ad on craigslist. This is the first time I put it up here at DVinfo.net.

Making it nonpaid makes the quantity of applicants less, but the quality a lot higher. We seek people who want a great learning experience and love video above all else.

After the internship period, they ususally become part of our active staff if there's a position available.
