Looking for an experienced gaffer, ideally with their own gear (separate rate/budget for gear), to join for a two day shoot in Fairfield, Idaho. It will be mainly daytime exteriors, with one interior scene. We are a small intimate crew bringing this short film to life, so looking for someone with a great attitude to join our little team for the weekend!

We are seeking an experienced gaffer to join our team for an upcoming low budget found footage horror film project. The majority of the project will take place indoors, and our aim is to utilize practical lighting wherever possible. Our goal is to achieve a naturalistic and eerie lighting style that enhances the atmospheric tension of the film.

Key Responsibilities:

Collaborate closely with the director and production team to execute the desired lighting setup for each scene.
Set up and operate lighting equipment efficiently and effectively.
Utilize creative solutions to achieve the desired lighting effects within the constraints of a low budget production.
Work in tandem with the camera team to ensure optimal lighting conditions for capturing footage.

We offer flexible payment options, including flat rate or weekly payments, based on your preference. The job entails shooting on two indoor locations, without the need for extensive lighting setups.

Read carefully…

Small independent film needs someone who can setup / hang / rig / deal with lighting.

It is a thriller with a few action/fight scenes.

It is extremely important to know that the crew is TINY so you will be working on your own a lot of the time setting up lights, negative fill and spaces, while the director/dp deals with camera & actors

This will be 12hr days and need someone with a positive attitude, especially in the 11th hour.

Someone who can also work on autopilot. See the frame and can make independent creative choices and help to quickly and efficiently improve the look of each frame. Work miracles with 4 lights. You will be treated with kindness and respect and we expect the same in return.
