Helping Hands from 2008

[Giroud Francois]

if you need to "paint" with light, there is an easy solution that allows to put light of any color and shape, exactly where you want without lots equipment.
find a good video projector (preferably HD to avoid the screen door effect) and connect it to a laptop.
using the video projector mounter on tripod (for example) you can light precisely object by drawing colored shapes on a paint program (use the full screen mode to get rid of the menus and palettes).
you can find very cheap lcd projector (or DLP, better) with resolution of 800x600 for less then 400$.
with a laptop and a matrox triple head box, you can have as much as 3 projector on a laptop.
obviously you can not set all the light for a stage only with such device (use regular lighting to get ambien light level) , but to give an additional color touch or play with very precise light spot, it is an easy solution.
you will spare on lots of lamps, tripods , cable, filters and so on and get a setup time reduced to almost nothing.

heheh... I was actually referring to the john alton expression. Didn't mean to confuse.

[Giroud Francois]

read again, that was not confusing....

It turns out that the wedding and reception are in Solon and Beechwood Ohio....so this is more of a "Cleveland" area event and not Youngstown Warren area.

Thanks.

I need four cameras / ops for a concert shoot in Hermosa Beach on June 29. We have been shooting with HVX200 but need over 2 hours of coverage from 4 cams so I've decided to go with HDV 1080 on tape. I'm not familiar with Sony cams but I believe it is the Z1U that does what I need, unless models have changed and there is a better model (?). Advice appreciated.

We can pay $300 for approx 4 hours of shooting.

You should have a good fluid tripod and experience with television or concert shooting. Send a resume and/or link to footage to contact tdsurf@yahoo.com

Hello!

My name is Erez Henya and I'm an ambitious film composer collaborating with filmmakers internationally. I love doing what I do and I give all my heart to it with a bold passion.

I also give a great importance to the pleasure of collaborating. There's nothing like working with new friends, not just filmmakers, that you feel open and cool with. Great ideas come from both sides pretty easily this way, and the communication (a key component in any film production) is clear, many times also predictable.

I would love to see you at www.erezhenya.com, and hear what you, personally, have to say about my music, and how you think I can execute your artistic vision to this great upcoming film of yours!

That's it, everything's there! now I wanna see you at www.erezhenya.com, if you dare!

I'm looking for shooters in the Louisville, Kentucky area. I would prefer a female shooter with some experience that can shoot bridal preps alone while I set up for the ceremony, however a male shooter would be good too. In any case, I'm looking to start training someone as early as a July 11th wedding. If you know of anyone looking for some part time weekend work like that, I would appreciate it if you would send them my way.

Hi,

I'm flying out to do an interview shoot in early August and need to rent the following:

Black backdrop with stands. Prefer 20' width but less might do.

Possibly needs some lights.

Anyone here rent stuff or know of a good place to rent?

I'll be shooting in the convention center.

[James Harring]

Not sure what you are looking for, but they should have it

Double booked August 2 and need a experienced videographer to cover me. Please email me your day rate. Times needed are from approx 1pm to 10pm I'll have my bag boy working that day so you would only need to cover the main events for me. The job is in Riverdale. Wireless mic a plus. Please be ready to show me a sample also. I will pay well but expect top quality as well. Thanks

[Brandon Freeman]

Hello, my name is Brandon Freeman. I'm a fairly uneducated, learn-as-I-go-through-trial-and-error composer. I'm an independent filmmaker, and my favorite part of the process is writing the music to my films. So, I'm a creature of necessity, learning how to overcome the obstacles that stand in my way as they present themselves. I'm not perhaps the best at foresight, but learning under pressure is how I do it best.

I'm interested in collaborating on short films (around 10 minutes) for free, provided I like the film.

I'm also interested in collaborating on feature films, but due to the involvement required, would need some kind of reimbursement/service trade.

I compose my work in Finale 2008. Listen to my growing portfolio at http://www.showcaseyourmusic.com/brandonfreeman.

My e-mail is hallewoode@gmail.com.
