Job Requirements: Must be local to location (or willing to work as a local).
Looking for a G&E Swing for a short in one location in Sherman Oaks, California.
Main responsibilities will be helping the key grip and gaffer. We're using a fairly minimal package with two D12's, Joleko, an S60, LM2, and a few RGBx Quasars. The grippage is also just an assortment of basic gear, an 8'x8' overhead, flags, clamps, track, doorway dolly, etc. We will also be using a hoodmount car rig. Experience with car rigs is helpful, but not necessary.
It's a one week shoot with 12 hour days. This is a passion project, so unfortunately the rate is very low budget, but can promise a respectful and safe work environment, reasonable hours, and great crafty and meals.
Thanks for your interest!
