Salil Sundresh Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 (edited) I've been shooting my own crappy micro budget shorts for a couple years and freelancing on paid event video shoots (NOT what I want to do with my life) for a few years. Since this summer I've been avidly attempting to gain more experience in the camera and lighting department on film sets (film/HD format). While I have had a couple worthwhile gigs, I haven't had as much lucks as I would have hoped (too many unpaid craigslist gigs where ppl don't know wtf they are doing), but I feel like I have some solid knowledge considering my experience and I am 100% committed to my work. If there is anyone that needs a camera PA in the Chicago area, I would be more than happy to help out especially if you're shooting on film. I have a lot of experience shooting with the HVX200 w/Letus 35 and other video cameras but very little film experience. I have experience working in most areas of the camera & lighting department on low-budget HD sets including: 1st & 2nd AC, camera op, DP, Gaffer, and Grip/Electric. Some of my micro budget Directing/DP/Editing work from about a year ago (and older) can be seen on my site at: http://salsunproductions.com/video.htm Feel free to e-mail me at salil(at)salsunproductions.com for more information. Even if it is a small project, if I'm free I might be interested anyways. Also, if anyone has any advice for me, I would love to hear it. My main sources of jobs have been mandy.com, craigslist.org, and a couple great contacts I've made. PS: Be sure to replace (at) with @ incase it wasn't obvious.

Scott Fritzshall Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Why don't you go around to the local rental houses and talk to them? There are usually people who appreciate it when you take an interest. I know that Fletcher has events on a semi-regular basis, and those are usually good to attend.
