Hey there, we're looking for a solo filmmaker who can do it all.

For this project you will be recording a talking head style interview with our client and grabbing some action shots around their home. You'll be responsible for setting up lights, running audio, and operating a teleprompter. The director will handle the creative, but you'll be responsible for everything technical on set.

The shoot is in a rental location on Thursday 4/18 and possibly at the client's home for some action shots. Please confirm your availability when you apply.

Rate is USD $1000 for a 10-hour day (likely less), including gear.

I'm looking for a director of photography with expertise in filming food - grilling even better for a 2 day shoot just outside of Spokane.

I'm filming an outdoor shoot for a new grill company, and we need to make the grill and the food look amazing.

This is going to be a heavy duty shoot in terms of content load, all outdoors, so we'll mostly need to be run and gun.

Crew will be small, but we can discuss needs if there's a skill match.

Thanks!
