Since I mentioned it, and all. Here are the crew positions I've identified for the fan film.

Of course, I won't be scheduling anything until the locations and casting is sorted (feel free to make suggestions/volunteer for either, I need an Eight, a Lucie and a middle-aged female physicist. I also might be in need of a lab-type place, depending on what can be managed via Popster's wife - which might not be much, as it turns out)

Constraints: shooting on home DV cam (at least it's a 3-chip camera) unless I can find a way to borrow (not rent, can't afford it) a prosumer-level DV cam.

Director of Photography & Camera Operator - lights, camera, your problem. ;) As mentioned elsewhere, though, I'm working on a complete shot breakdown and storyboard, which should help a lot. None of this framing-on-the-fly stuff, no sir.

Wardrobe (including makeup and hair) - 1 or 2 folks. I think I know some people who are already interested, but they've not officially told me, yet. ;)

Continuity/Script Supe - someone has been suggested, but I've got to ask her if she's interested!

General set PA - mostly the job involves preventing me from commiting homicide before and during shooting

Transport - Sad fact is, I don't drive and I don't have wheels. Ideally, you've got a truck or minivan with which to. I'll pay for your gas, of course. (I might need you for 1 - 2 days scouting pre-production, 'kay?) [livejournal.com profile] strollerman, I don't suppose you'd be interested?

A pal has volunteered to help with art direction/props and I've another not-quite-locked-down-but-close person interested in handling sound, both in production and after. The sound person might also help me out with storyboards, as she's looking for opportunities to practice.

I suppose I'm directing this pig, but I've not yet decided if an AD would have much to do, aside from assisting the PA when it comes to stopping me from committing murder or seppuku...

As is usual in these things, I can't pay you, but I will feed you and give lavish credit.

VERY tentative shooting schedule: June/July and early August.

If I get lucky with the indoor location, we might be able to do this in four full-length (ie 10+ hours) days, five at most.

If I'm not lucky with the indoor location and we have to shoot that scene in 4 - 5 hour chunks, the schedule will be mangled, accordingly.

All shooting to occur on the weekends, natch.

Can you tell I'm used to film crews? :)

(although, ironically, most of my personal projects at school were shot solo. On 16mm. Oy.)

I can and will combine positions if ppl have the skills and don't mind doing it.

(I'm being a bit bitchy about qualifications, too - more on that, another time...)

The volunteer I got for sound, though, she feels her strengths are ONLY in that area (well, that and she's going to help me with storyboarding) so that got broken out from DP/camera.

Transport - it's a nice-to-have, not a must have, granted. It gets my hubby off the hook for the job, more than anything else. ;)

A general PA and an AD are, forsooth, gravy.

So, yeah, it's more of a wish list but, heck, you can't get sumthin' if you don't ask for it!
