So far, we have several professional associates committed to the project:

We have two lead actors and 14 supporting actors

WE STILL NEED:

A good DP
A good SOUND GUY

We also need:

(and camera operators willing to bring gear and serve as extras in a "news conference" scene)
-Gaffers and Electricians to move lamps and run cable
-Grips
-Additional PA's (coffee and such)
-Property Master to assist the Prod. Designer
-A web-design guru, dreamweaver, flash etc.
-Publicist
-Reception/Front Desk PA for at least 2 studio shoot days.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DP and Camera Crew notes:

- We are shooting to my HVX200A in 1080i and at 24 FPS, and are shooting tapeless using two 16 GB P2 cards (solid state).

- We are offloading to a dual core laptop (on location) with 2 TBs of disk space, in studio we offload to the laptop and/or to a quad core desktop. There will be an HD monitor in video village.

- We will be using a Kessler Crane extensively with 5.5, 8 and 12 foot tips, dolly & track, Bogen Manfrotto 503 and Libec LS-22 tripods with Varizoom LANCs, possibly a 35mm Redrock M2 adapter with Nikon lenses, and a Sticky Pod Director car mount for our Pickup Truck scenes.


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

GEAR WE COULD STILL USE:

We do have an HVX200A with 2 16 gig P2 cards, but If the DP or shooters has an extra HVX200, an HVX200A or any extra P2 media cards, they would be a HUGE asset, plus I could see working out something on gear rental for those items, as it will GREATLY speed us along.

Also, if we do use the Redrock adapter, we could benefit from additional Nikon prime lenses. I think we have a 50 and a 28 in the kit (AF though- so they breathe- not ideal)

We could USE EXTRA LIGHTS, especially a MOLE 2K or similar and any ARRI fresnel 650's, 350's, Lowel Totas, In be-tweenies, etc would be cool.

WE NEED A NEWS-VAN. No seriously. We do. :-) OK, it can LOOK like one.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE DEAL:

SHOOTING DAYS are intended to range from Half (6 hour) to Full (12 hour) days with breaks for food, and a minimum of 12 hours off between shoots.

We provide food and beverage during filming (while on set), everyone who participates is eligible to receive a deferment contract, screen credit, demo reel DVD, name/title on website and in publicity exposure, invites to appear in "behind scenes" reels for DVD, and invites to wrap parties and free VIP passes to premiers, festivals (where possible), Q&As etc.

Anyone wanting to have a good time, grab some experience and participate in a cool flick, let me know. Only ground rules we would ask: Personnel should definitely know film set protocol. NO talking in video village, no directing talent, no complaining/attitude etc... also, ideas are welcome on set, but should be taken to department heads, who bring them forward to DP and Director.

We are serious about having a fun but professional time, and getting a kick-ass pro result we can all be proud of. If interested, please e-mail resume/experience/references etc to Douglas@CadenzaEntertainment.com

If we can work it out in time, I will have our UPM get back to you pronto.

Thanks again!
