Non-Profit promo film

Pay Rate:
$650.00 / Daily
-
Job Requirements: Must be local to location (or willing to work as a local).
-
Additional Requirements:
- Do you have extensive experience operating cameras in professional environments?
We are filming for one day on location for a non-profit shoot and are looking for a Cam Op/AC swing to join our team. This shoot will have minimal crew so a multifaceted and flexible crew member is a must. The director and DP are "swiss-army knife" folks who can wear many hats as is often necessary with small doc-style shoots, so it's good to have the same mentality in our local crew.
Please apply only if you are comfortable splitting your time between sometimes operating and most of the time providing A/C support to the DP. Sony camera experience also a big bonus.
Look forward to meeting you!
