Isn't reality TV known for being cheap? What's with PA/shooter. . .? Just 'cause someone knows how to use a camera doesn't mean they have any artistic sensibilities. Doesn't HGTV care about what that B-roll looks like?

I like this for several reasons. You'll notice that they somehow rented expensive gear, without having a crew in place. Brilliant. You'll notice how they want people to accept no pay to operate said gear. Notice gear is a prototype camera that just hit the market, I believe. Cause people who actually know how to use this stuff. . .yeah. . .they're the kinda people who work for free ALL the time. Why not? You'll also notice how at the bottom, it says "compensation: negotiable", directly contradicting the "no pay" bit at the top.

My guess is the reason having your own HD package is plus is because there ain't NO rental house that is gonna give them one for FREE!!!
"I need a crew for 2-3 day shoot. High Probability this will be shot in HD so HD experience and Having your own equipment is a definately plus Beening well versed in your craft give you a glow! Videographer AC Stills Gaffer PAs (you are the backbone to a set- great way to learn) Lighting Dir STYLIST (with contacts if possible) DP Drivers (definately someone who knows how to handle a truck Please forward your resume. If you are a crewperson of many trades please specify what you are interested in. Compensation: This will be unpaid. You will recieve copy of video for your reel" |

The spelling errors didn't put up enough of a flag?
I wonder who these people are. . .seriously. Film students? Naive persons from outside the industry trying to break in? Assholes? |

James, was it you that posted the response in Craigslist?
"My guess is the reason a shooter with their own HD package is a PLUS is because NO rental house is stupid enough to give you $300,000 worth of gear for FREE!! Hahahaha!! P.S. Thanks for letting all of the P.A.s know that your project is going to help their careers! P.S. #2 That sure is a big wish list for somebody with NO money!! " Hilarity abounds... |

This guy just seems like a dick. And I suspect there's no pay involved.
"Looking for cool crew. Anti war Anti Racism Anti Globalism ETC ETC ETC If you're like me and been on enough sets to know we're pros; but tired of the lazy folks, the arse holes, the racists, bigots, FAKE "world peace" activists. Work with me on some great projects, with REAL people who are SERIOUS about PEACE and just as serious about their CRAFTS. Email a sentence about yourself and kindly include your resume. Peace. " |

I think these two are from the same guy, clearly living in fantasy land:
"AN ASPIRING FILM MAKER SEEKS DONATIONS Reply to: keyzrelate@tmail.com Date: 2006-03-09, 12:43AM EST Hello I am in the market for a G4 computer. Some screenwriting software. Film editing software A 3ccd DV 24p camera. Gaffing.lighting equipement And basically anything to do independent film making. I'm not interested in anything but independent work. I have diffrent crew members to help out with ideas. I'm not interested in chasing hollywood. The only way I can see it is make a good project sell it and let people come to you. I produce music so if there is some donations for an entry level protools system/some plug ins Logic software A lot of drum sounds A lot of synth sounds especially strings. Studio monitors. Neuman mic/tube mic pre/compressor CD Burner I am not interested in going to record labels I want to do it independent I'm tired of trying to get on I just want to bust my ass work with talented people and produce good music as well as good music videos and of course good films. I know this is crazy to ask. But I'm thinking in terms of people that are upgrading and there might be a 1% chance you wouldn't mind giving up some pieces. Of course I'm not selling dreams but upon taking a leap of faith going indepent if there is any finance made I will be more than willing to pay for every piece donated. If I get paid I will be a pain in your ass to give you your money TRUST ME I'm Loyal I'm just looking to do independent work without putting my freedom in danger by taking alternative routes to financing my tools. Thanks and have a great day. P.S. If you think this is crazy you don't have to reply and tell me I already know. I look at it like this it is worth a dam try lol " Another: "ATT DPz that can put a full feature film crew together Reply to: keyzrelate@tmail.com Date: 2006-03-09, 1:14AM EST I am in the market for such talented individuals that can take a project from concept to completion in its edited ready to go stage. to donate there time every 3 months to do a full feature film. I will be contacting screenwriters,actors etc I will look at scripts and find great movies to produce. I want to do this for free for the sake of art. Artist helping artist. I will act as assistant director/producer/line producer. The deal is I want wonderfull films Ready to go every 3 months. I want this to be independent. That means no festivals no deal shopping. Nothing All I would do is try to sell it independently through the internet hand to hand and anyway I can. Once I have everyone in place I am willing to make an even split on all revenue that will be monitored by all involved. I look at it like this if we make a great movie and sell it for 10 dollors all over the planet if only one million people purchase the movie that's 10 million to split amoungs ourselves. If interested please send your equipemnt list including editing software. The reason I ask this is simply because I'm working on getting donations as to save you from having to drag your equipment out on location. If I can get the same tools you use all you would have to do is show up and use your talent. P.S. I'm also interested in doing music videos as well. The amount per 3 month period will be on the amount of artist I produce for free and there music videos 1 per artist will be free. Now this is also something I want to do on an indie level. Since I produce music I can cover that part. In terms of the music video I would need the crew for that purpose. Again each artist will have 10 songs and 1 music video on there project and again if wecan sell this for 10 dollors to a million people then its and even split with everyone. So as no1 would feel robbed of there time I will be producing music for free but I will still be willing to do the evem split with everyone. Again I don't want to have anything to do with record labels I'm not trying to get on I just want good music and film and will sell it independently. So I'm not looking for a distribution deal/film deal record deal nothing I just want to do this indie all the way and then do a split all the way. Thanks for your time. * this is in or around new york * no -- it's NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other commercial interests * Compensation: even splits " |

Josh, your last three submissions are a sign that hard drug use has reached epidemic proportions...
Hey, I would almost be willing to fake up a resume for a good shooter that also includes such things as ex-Special Forces sniper with 23 confirmed kills, 12 mths tour at Gitmo as event recorder use 24p JVC, covered the Republican convention as a freelance videographer in 2004, etc. to the flower child. Wonder if that would do permanent damage? ;) |
