I am looking for a Gaffer for June 10th and June 11th for my short film "Heaven's Diner."

Heaven’s Diner is run by women of color who have taken justice against harassers into their own hands. They hire Lilah to walk down NYC streets at night to scout and bring back male catcallers to the diner. The staff then work together to kill and butcher the men into burgers.

It is important to me to elevate women and non-binary people in filmmaking. As a result, people of color are encouraged to apply.

While I have a very small budget, it is important to me that I pay everyone on my crew.
Pay rate is negotiable and am open and flexible to talking about it!

Labor Rate: $700/Day (½ for tech and 1 production day)

Seeking a Gaffer for 1 day of corporate interviews and 1 day of b-roll during the week of August 19th in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. Specific days are still TBD.

Please include your day rate, a link to your website/work, and a gear list.

We are filming a found footage horror narrative film with the majority of the project shot at one location in Tannersville, New York. Looking for a Gaffer that has experience in horror and using practical lights as we intend to use longer running shots to make the film feel more realistic. An ideal candidate could also be an Grip that is looking to make the jump to Gaffer. No equipment required.

Pay is lower but will only be shooting for around 8-9 hours a day.

In search of a Gaffer with a minimum 1-ton package, local to or willing to work as a local to Plano, Texas. This shoot will be for a feature documentary, including (1) interview day (which will require lighting units and grip gear). The interview day will have Grip support, but b-roll days may require our Gaffer to work solo as our footprint must remain light.


The documentary's subject matter is neurodiversity/neurosensitivity, and we will feature those from within the community. The individuals participating have kindly offered to share their stories, and we seek to celebrate them while telling honest and informative stories.


A little about our team: our team values individuals with diverse backgrounds and perspectives, and we foster a welcoming environment for all. Particularly for this documentary about neurodiversity/neurosensitivity, we encourage those from within the community to apply - we welcome those who can bring a more specific perspective to the team.

We will be conducting video-conference interviews to discuss the specific needs of this production in greater detail.

Rate is for 12 hours, plus a negotiable kit fee for gear
