DP PA needed


Recommended Posts

Job opportunity...

 

I'm looking for a PA...really for me...to take lighting stills with my slr and print them to be sent in to the dailies colorist. I also need this person to do lighting diagrams of our setups as well. The bad news is that it is not a camera dpt position nor union, just an opportunity...and that it will only pay $10//hr. Must know how to use a digital slr and photoshop (camera raw).

 

Job starts May 7th. If you or anyone you know are interested, please email me and let me know some background.

Dear Eric Steelberg,

 

I read your forum on cinematography.com that said you were seeking

Production Assistant. You stated $10/hour, but the money is not a

concern. I'm concerned about the experience and, of course, inter-

active professional influence.

I located to Los Angeles in 2003 after graduating Univ of Alabama-

Birmingham. In five years I have found various work in various

productions, big and small, and my abroad travels overseas include

London (uk), doc. reality series in Gold Coast, Australia, and 6 mo.

in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Most recently I've enjoyed full event

passes at 2007 AFI Hollywood Film Fest, and 2008 Sundance in

Park City, Utah. I am currently considering graduate study in

Liverpool (uk), or Farnham (uk), or NYU's Tisch School of Arts in

Singapore, Asia. I have a preference for international films.

Although

I'm not fond of the idea of returning to academic settings, simply

b/c my undergrad did me little justice. My academics were with honours.

 

It's been a long day for me, so I am sending this and I look forward

to speaking further upon your reply. Thank you in advance,

PS

Your website includes Juno, which I viewed at it's opening at AFI. It

was very interesting; much more than the opener "Lions For Lambs",

and the closer, which I could critique in various viewpoints.

Hi Eric,

 

I believe I responded to your question of "where are you located". And I think I gave a response,

but have not heard back from you. Have you already found an available local? If so, I send kind

regards. Thanks for the consideration. "Te mando abrazos" as the argentines say, I send open arms.

So, I hope I'm not stepping over a line when I say this but Eric mentioned to me that this position was creating some Union controversy and that it may not be available. I felt the impression that it may get resolved but I wasn't holding my breath. Does anyone or Eric want to shed some light? Or should this just be forgotten? I'm thinking the latter.

But I may be overqualified: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0372390/

 

Sorry Tim, you may have worked on several films that made over $300 million but the fact that you didn't work on any of the three top grossing films of all time makes you under-qualified.

 

(Hopes Tim realizes I'm being sarcastic)

 

What a resume though...seriously.

Indeed... you know, hey Tim, can I be your assistant? Film Loader? Carry your golf bags?
