focus puller for short film (using Red One)

feeds@yuku.com (mRgraham) — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 07:23:29 GMT

Hi All

We just lost the focus puller due to conflict in schedule. The dates are the 21st,22nd and 23rd of Nov. You will be working with a highly experienced DOP. We will have the Red One. We can pay $50.00 per day. I know its not much but if there is some left over from the budget we hope to hand more out. Must be very good... well, that goes without saying.

Need: young male or female (18-28) for surreal dark-comedy

feeds@yuku.com (ptownsend) — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 03:19:02 GMT

Casting for a young-male or female (18-26) to play the lead dual-character for a surreal dark-comedy Tropfest entry called 'Flash'. It is a very fun and unearthly script about a young, self-centered (fe)male who is coming to terms with his/her very imminent death, the person responsible and his/her life up until the moment. Looking for someone that can play a self-serving, yet charming 'dickhead-type' or 'bitch-type' as well as bitter and resentful. At the moment it is...

Sydney: DOP with a camera needed for Tropfest film - Filming on Saturday Dec 5

feeds@yuku.com (rachelt) — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 17:12:03 GMT

I'm looking for an enthusiastic, flexible DOP with a camera to film a Tropfest entry on Saturday December 5. The shooting will take place at a park near the Sutherland Shire, between 10am and 5pm.

There will be approximately 100 'actors' (just a bunch of my lovely friends/family/random strangers I pick up along the way) kissing. All sorts of kisses - we're not talking pashing. The film has an upbeat (euphemism for Top 40 sounding) acoustic soundtrack that's...

1st AD wanted for short film: Working with industry professionals

feeds@yuku.com (mRgraham) — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 18:20:57 GMT

Hi all

Looking for a good AD. We had a great one that had to a scheduling conflict. We have started the breakdown of the script. Just need a great one to replace her and that knows how to get the best out of the crew, push the DOP and the director, as well as keep things on schedule (as best as you can for a short) The main shoot is over 3 days in Sydney. Its the one location, just different scenes acted out. Good actors and good crew. Hope to here from you.

upate: yeah...
