Helping Hands from 2008

[John Miller]

There are some abandoned buildings in Durham in the area near the prison.

In Hillsborough, there is a disused Wal-Mart that has been sitting empty for a few years. Not abandoned as such but looks that way.

For a small home, I have a property in Raleigh sitting empty but furnished.

(The creek on our property runs into the Eno...)

This is for an Indian wedding - a 3 day event but I'm not sure if the client needs videography for all 3 days though. I do both video and photot. However since I was a hired to do the photography, I will not be able to do the video. Please let me know your rate and website and contact info. I'll fwd them to my client.

Thanks

Hi all,

I am DP’ing a SAG independent feature film in September, with a great team of people behind it. There is distributor interest in it, along with some “star” names in it. I am still in need of several key crew positions that need to be filled (the people I normally work with are not available during the shooting timeframes).

I am looking for:

1st Assistant Camera
Gaffer
Best Boy Electric
Key Grip
Sound Mixer/Recorder

These positions are PAID. Of course, meals are provided as well. Shooting is 13-15 days in September into October, all in New York City.

If you are interested, please forward a resume and definitely an online reel to m.galvan@mac.com

I will begin interviews over the next week or so.


1st Assistant Camera:

Someone who is proficient in focus pulling, though the shots aren’t anything too difficult. Will be using a P+S Technick Mini35 w/CinePrimes

Gaffer:

Extensive knowledge lighting for 1/3” HD cameras necessary. I am proficient in this as well, so I will also help here. Also, must understand how to light large areas of space outside as we will be shooting in blocked off NYC streets at night.

Best Boy Electric:

Will mainly assist the Gaffer with lighting setup/execution.

Key Grip/Grip:

Will also assist the Gaffer/Best Boy Electric with lighting setup/configurations. Will manage the grip package.

Sound Mixer/Recorder:

Will work with Boom Op to capture up to 4 channels of audio per scene. Looking for someone owning his or her own mixer/equipment. I have some audio gear too, so can discuss what will work.

Yang Wen,

Good to see Chicago represented! I'm currently available for those dates - you can see at my website here: http://www.centerstreetproductions.com. I have some basic pricing info and a couple of samples listed, and can send out DVD copies as well if they'd like some samples that way.

The last Indian wedding I shot was a couple years ago for Ben Lynn, also in Chicago.

Thanks,

Phil

Videosmith is great. I've rented from them many times without any problems whatsoever and they have a good selection of gear.

Wish I had some advice for you on a studio. Center City Film and Video on Walnut St. has a small studio I've used before, but I'm not sure if they rent out the space without a crew, but they might. They are not cheap though.

Another option would be to simply rent a hotel room or conference room at a hotel. Especially if all you are doing is talking head interviews. You could also look into renting a furnished office for a day or a conference room from a place that rents executive office space. You might have better noise control is a hotel though.

[Travis Johnson]

you have been sent an email sir. :)
