Josell Ramos Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 (edited) I'm prepping a feature action-drama to be shot in Calabria, Italy. I'm in the process of filling the crew list -- missing a top spot -- DP. Are there any Italians (or not) here that know of or have worked with a talented DP in That region or near by? Calabria has some breathless scenery, incredible wides. Edited December 3, 2009 by Josell Ramos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Jensen Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 I'm prepping a feature action-drama to be shot in Calabria, Italy.

Calabria has some breathless scenery, incredible wides. Mark Melville is one of the most talented DP's I know. He speaks fluent Italian and English. He can shoot pretty pictures and work within a budget. He's also very fast. He just wrapped a feature in Italy. I believe he lives in Florence. I can get you his number if you wish. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0578496/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josell Ramos Posted December 3, 2009 Author Share Posted December 3, 2009 Thanks! The film is a feature Thriller Action Drama. Locations in the script are limited to a field house (when we zero in on this location in Calabria) witch some ancillary spots around town. The story is basically a father and son tale -- criminal meets the innocent. Sorry to be so vague, more will be revealed as we dive into pre-production. Looking at HD digital 2K possibly Red or other. Also looking for a DP that could bring in his crew: gaffer, electric etc. since this is more of a remote local... Crew doesn't have to be from Calabria but should be comfortable adapting to the production location. I will look into the suggestions above. email you directly. thanks again!
