2013 Fall Project - Blackburn

We will be shooting a psychological/supernatural thriller Fall 2013, tentatively titled Blackburn, and we are ramping up for this shoot by hiring two production teams for alternate shooting dates (and to have a backup if there is a scheduling conflict with any crew members).  To that end we will need two of the following:

1st Assistant Director:  Primary duties include directing when the director is using video assist, preparing each scene for shooting, and managing production team during set-ups.

Camera Operator:  DSLR experience (Canon) a must.  Helpful if you have a working assistant that you already use for shoots.  Having your own camera is a plus, but not a must.

On-set Sound:  Experience with dual system sound will be necessary (or at least knowledge/practice of such).  Knowing how to boom and monitor the recorder at the same time helpful (in case there's not a boom operator present that day).  Having your own gear not necessary. 

Script Supervisor:  (may need only one of these) Primary duties include script supervision, continuity, publicity stills, and logging camera/audio data.

Production Manager:  (may need only one of these) Primary duties include recruiting and managing production assistants for on-set help, tracking of wardrobe/props/gear, and daily reports (call sheets, etc.).

The film will be shot on nights and weekends Oct/Nov/Dec 2013--but not EVERY weekend.  We will try to schedule shooting dates around community schedules--and plan stand-ins for when a crew members cannot be present (also why we are hiring two of each).  The film will mostly be shot in Fayette County (so close by). 

This will be a low budget feature--so keep that in mind when giving us a price quote for your work (flat rates for project will be even better).  Regardless of pay, EVERY crew member will receive IMDb/film credit (yes it will be an actual listed production, and yes it will be distributed/for sale after a theater/festival run), a screener of the finished product, and invited to attend the wrap party/screenings.

If you are interested in any of these positions, please send us an email of interest, with the position in the subject heading, to info@elsinoreproductions.com.  Please include any links for reels, resume, etc. that you may have--as well as what pay requirements would be.  And be sure to add our official Facebook page to stay tuned to updates, new hires, casting calls, etc.  Thanks!
