I'm a music video director looking for a Los Angeles-based DP to film a fun road trip-themed music video shoot in Santa Monica and Malibu on 5/16. It's pretty run and gun with a skeleton crew, so would like to bring someone who owns and operates a komodo/bmpcc6kpro/fx3/fx6 + ronin rs3 pro setup or similar. A rig that we can smoothly switch from gimbal to handheld to tripod as needed. ND filter would be crucial as well. Budget for DP is between 500-600 for the day. Please link your previous work/website/gear list in your submission!

I can provide the following gear if needed: bounce and neg material, sachtler flowtech legs, heavy duty shoulder rig, teradek/directors monitor, and a DZOfilm Vespid prime set in PL and EF mount. But let me know what gear you own and we can figure it out from there.

Rate is based on (1) shoot day
