Ooh! Ooh! Can I join in? Never thought I'd get to post one of these, but I was just poking around Mandy, thought you'd like this:
---------- Payment is on a lo/no/deferred basis. Cinematographer wanted for Summer shoot in and around the NYC . Award-winning film-maker / publicity magnet seeks experienced D.P. (who owns lighting, sound and camera package -- preferably the Vericam or Panasonic HDX 200) to shoot ultra-low budget romantic comedy/ road movie in August. Opportunity of a lifetime to work on future Sundance entry with critically acclaimed writer / star and his partner who has scripts in development with Castle Rock (Tom Hanks), Sony, and too many TV credits and theater credits too long to list here. I'm offering a great script, talent, creditability and media profile. Payment is low or deferred. I'm self financing from my salary as a Brooklyn math teacher. If you're hungry to work on great material and can afford to work within my budget, let's team up. SEEKS LOCATION SCOUT / LOCATIONS for new movie shooting around NYC in August. Locations and services must be donated for free - will be awarded on screen thank you and networking opportunities: LOCATIONS NEEDED: mom & pop pharmacy; motel in deserted area; motel with pool; 2 small town diners; small town flower shop; bowling ally; restaurant; factory security booth where a guard would stay with cars trying to get through; airport hub, airplane interior - can be faked with seats; exterior car mechanic shop along a rural highway; a farm with farm animals; corporate office with cubicle; western like bar with dance floor i.e. Montana; seminar classroom; any scenic areas within close proximity to NYC that look like rural scenic America i.e. it's a cross country road movie and we are trying to cheat shots while we stay in NY, any private long stretches of roads that look like they are from mid-west or western states; any small town streets that look like mid-west with cobble pavement; anything that looks like downtown L.A.; doctors office. ---------- I know, I know, he's a teacher; overworked, underpaid, underappreciated, he deserves our respect. But he's a MATH teacher, shouldn't he understand that anyone with a "Vericam" has bills and a camera to take care of? That "opportunity of a lifetime to work on future Sundance entry" thing is great too, I can't get over that. And such a modest list of locations! |

They're not even asking for you to bring your own toad. Of course toad experience is preferred over frog experience. Heck, handling toads for TV Commercials might be a profitable career. I'm sure toads are less expensive to own and maintain than HDV cameras. Instead of agonizing over such things as 24p, P2, 2/3" SD vs. 1/3" HDV, mics, light kits, you can buy BOTH a toad and a frog and cover your bases.
Next time you see a listing that expects you to walk into a shoot with $5000-$10,000 worth of gear and pays next to nothing, remind them that you can buy a toad, have one provided for you for a TV Commercial, spend less and make more money doing that. I think geckos might be profitable too. __________________________________ Looking fro Frog/Toad Handler for Commercial Reply to: gigs-171132885@craigslist.org Date: 2006-06-13, 2:57PM EDT Looking for an experinced frog/toad (would prefer Toad) handler for a commercial shoot. Could also be someone who has a pet frog/toad or owns one and is comfortable with them. Please send resume/website/pictures to Raffi. Compensation: Negotiable |

And another. This kicks ass:

I need a committed dp/producer/sound guy (hopefully someone who can do all of these things) for the remainder of the summer. You must be a professional.

Also, my uncle has agreed to make you business cards. good luck! ps—Those who are willing to rent a car will also be considered. * no -- it's NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other commercial interests * Compensation: tolls " |

Directors
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to: gigs-1@craigslist.org Date: 2006-06-21, 4:24PM EDT Comedian & writer looking to film comedy pilot. There's no budget so it's strictly guerrilla style. Need director/producer who knows what they're doing preferably with much of their own equipment. (ideally HD) Obviously no pay, but we have a few industry contacts, so you'll build your reel, have a few laughs and maybe we'll get a lucky break. |

From CL:
I am looking for a camera operator with his or her own Panasonic DVX100A or B or similar Canon XL for concert shoot at the Hampton Ballroom and Casino on July 27th. This is for a local Band "Bionic" who will be playing with 90's band Candlebox. This is for promotional material that will be featured on Bionic's new DVD that will be passed soon after this is edited and shown around to very high profile clients and record companies. Any participation in this project would a good step in any camera man's career and the experience should quite fun. I have 2 shooters for this event (which would include press passes) and an editor but am in need of 1 more shooter. 1 DVX100B and 1 Sony Handycam is being used so far but need someone who can bring along a camera similar to my DVX to match the shooting look. Anyone interested please respond ASAP. Thanks! Compensation: No Pay but will provide transportation to and from location and final copy of concert dvd. |

Goes a long way towards showing why Candlebox had problems with management. . .

Also, be sure to tell them that they've "left you far behy-yind". Basically, try to work in Candlebox lyrics to convey that they're screwing you.
