LA Prod Co Seeks Sony EX-1 Shooters in NY and Rome

Hi all:

LA production company seeking to hire two Sony EX-1 shooters to photograph buildings and landmarks in Glencove, Long Island, NY and in Rome, Italy. We are producing a bonus feature for a DVD release and need to match angles and shots with scenes in a classic film title. Specific requirements listed below...

1. Videographer must have professional credits and experience and own a Sony EX-1 only. The main portion of this project here in LA is being shot on the EX-1 and edited on an XDCAM EX timeline so only EX-1 owners please

2. Videographer must know area and live in or near area (Glencove, Long Island, NY and Rome, Italy) must be able to quickly and efficiently travel to specified locations/landmarks and shoot guerilla style. We specifically need smooth, well composed scenic tripod mounted shots, not hand held. We will send you screen captures from the film of each shot for the framing, angle and composition required.

3. Work made for hire, flat rate plus expenses (fuel, transportation, meals, parking). Videographer must submit itemized copies of receipts for expense reimbursement. We will own footage. Videographer must be experienced in guerilla, low key shooting style as we will not have time or budget to obtain permits. The key is looking and acting like a tourist while obtaining necessary shots.

4. We will FedEx you a hard drive with our FedEx account number, you will shoot footage, transfer to drive and FedEx back to us using our FedEx account.

5. You will receive credit on U.S. DVD release and can list on IMDB as camera operator once title is released.

6. Shoots will happen in first part of June. We anticipate one day shoot in Glencove, Long Island and one to two day shoot in Rome, Italy.

7. For videographer in Rome, must be VERY fluent in English, computer saavy and footage must be shot at 60Hz 1080 setting, not 50Hz settings.

8. Day rate commensurate with experience.
