DIY DAYS is seeking volunteer camera ops and a tech producer to head up the team (this is the job i used to do) for the upcoming New York conference. As you can see in the video above, these events are entirely run by volunteers committed to bringing the kind of info that consultants charge thousands for to filmmakers and content creators for FREE. I'm looking to pass the torch to someone eager to meet and network with notable filmmakers and producers, and to document the day.
