Re: Producing music videos, having someone help
 
Why not call them the Production Manager - as the individual, So Production Manager, Fred Smith or if they want the company name then the credit becomes Production Management FS Films

You then have the producer and under them, the production manager. Sort of shows the heirachy too.

Re: Looking for a place to intern in Houston.

Sorry, can you be more elaborate on what kind of tips you're looking for?

mostly on finding more jobs and networking.

Re: Looking for a place to intern in Houston.
 
Have I given you the spiel about using the Houston production guide to find and contact varous producers, etc.? If not email me and I'll do it via that so we don't take up forum space.


Other than that, unfortunately, it tends to be about who you know. Meeting people and leaving impressions. Things I'm REALLY BAD AT.

I would say get business cards printed up for whatever job position you are trying to get more work in (cameraman? PA? Grip?). Either an all in one card, or maybe, several different cards, one for each job position. Then, next time you're on a crew, hand those out to everyone at some opportune time (maybe toward the end of the day when you've had a chance to dazzle everyone with your mad skillz).

Look for opportunities to network with other crew members, etc. on shoots, let them know what you do and that you're available, attend mixers around town (there are several facebook groups, yahoo groups, etc. with mailing lists about upcoming industry events). Go to those, holla at people, hand out cards.

Look on Houston film commission and texas film commission website for jobs (they'll have listings of TV shows, movies, and maybe some other types of productions needing crew).

List yourself on any website you can (for free I mean), try to put up a portfolio of material.

I won't lie, I'm terrible on all the networking/self promotion stuff, mostly 'cause none of my (admittedly rare) attempts and putting myself out there ever landed me a single gig, so now I'm bitter and jaded, but it's a numbers game so if you're all Type A and whatnot then you will probably do better.

Oh yeah, lastly. . .I'm assuming you have a cell phone. Always (within reason, say between morning and evening) leave it on, near you so that when someone calls you don't find out three hours later. People tend to want to hire RIGHT NOW and so if you miss the call they're on to someone else three minutes later.

re: Helping Hands from 2012
 
Ey Brian! I just moved into LA and I'm gathering some equipment. I used to have a Sony Ex1r and a couple of things back in my town but now I got something lighter. So far I have a Mark ii with the 24-105, a tamron 90mm and that cheap but awesome canon 50mm 1.8.
I also have a glidecam with the vest and can operate decently, a 580 EX flash and i'm looking to get a small led light that can help me with this kind of thing.
Would you be interested?

Looking for Chicago video production work
 
I'm interested in any freelance or work opportunities in the general Chicago area. I have experience as a videographer and currently use a T3i. I love working on post and use the Adobe suite. I have skills with After Effects creating motion graphics, animation, special effects compositing, and color grading. I'm also handy with Photoshop and freelance as a graphic designer when I get the chance.

I would consider an internship role if it will lead to a job once I prove myself. I would also consider free work if I felt it would be great for networking or really boost my portfolio.

Thank you
