Hi,

I may very soon be in a position where I need adult (18+) junior crew and extras around York for 1 month's intensive shooting - anyone here fit the bill? I can't give any more details just yet, but I will if it comes together as it appears to be doing just now (we have an in-principle agreement, need to get paperwork signed and completed!)

Hey pdrg,

I'm not Leeds based anymore (as you know), but I can certainly point you in the direction of people who might be.

In particular, I have a junior camera operator / focus puller / generally awesome dude in mind, who lives in York.

And the current ls:tv crew might be of use to you, not sure?

Cheers

Hey Arktic,

If things go my way, I'll certainly want an awesome dude 1st AC, and probably a wodge of 'general crew' (ie younger people keen to do a bit of everything including setbuilding, running, cable bashing, cleaning up, driving, location supervision, on-site assistant editing, etc., etc.,) for 4 weeks (so it may not suit students - I'll want ~12h days, 6 days/week) to beef up some older experienced industry lags.

I'm guessing you're all contracted up just now, but we're talking sometime in the new year *all going well*, it's a deal with one of the producers of one of the current cinema top-10 British gangster romps and he already has US distributor interest in this project off the back of the current (chart) one. Fingers crossed! Now, if you're out of contract around that time, you may like to get involved. Decent pay, and all.

This project sounds really cool. Would you consider writing a simple production diary? I would very much like to know how you set up this whole thing and how you pull it off.

Best of luck!

Will do, well something anyway...we'll have someone EPK'ing the shoot too But it's got to fall into place first, we've been here before, but this time feels luckier as we've got the distributor interest already. Anyway, I've said too much already, so fingers crossed and I'll certainly let everyone know if it starts coming together
