Sound Engineer & SFX Makeup Needed for Feature Film

CarlColeman_SayHello
Dominic Took of Dead Time Productions is filming a feature in November and is looking for a sound engineer and a make up artist. Here’s the rest in Dominic’s words:

We’re looking for a sound engineer to work a sixteen day shoot. The engineer must have some portfolio work to show and have experience.

We’re also looking for a makeup artist with skills in special FX, blood guts and gore. The more portfolio work or reel cuts you can show us of this sort of work, the more likely we are to take you on.

Same terms of contract apply to both jobs. The work is unpaid, on a low budget film. However contracts will specify a percentage of profits to be given when distribution is acquired for the title.

Person/s must be able to get to the West Midlands, Wolverhampton area. Lifts available.

Email: dtook@transientinnovations.co.uk with name and contact details + experience.

If you want to see more about us, go to Spooked Films Limited. Dead Time productions is an arm of Spooked Films Limited.

Film Forum WM August Meet Up

Film Forum August Meet UpHellooo,

Film Forum’s next meet up will be on Tuesday 25th August at the Victoria Pub on John Bright Street in Birmingham from 6pm.

Come along and chat to people from all aspects of filmmaking in the Midlands. It’s very informal and is really up to you if you want to approach it as a casual drink or an opportunity to make new contacts and get projects off the ground. Contacts made through the social evenings have helped film projects to flourish and the variety of creative types attending has been very encouraging.

After a bit of a think, we’ve decided to stick with hosting the meet up at The Victoria. It’s fun, relaxed and has decent priced drinks. We were a bit concerned that their hasn’t been a dedicated area for the meet ups previously, so we now have a reserved tables in the corner of the front bar… we’ll have some signs.

So, come on down, say hello, tell us what you are up to and hopefully we’ll all benefit from some interaction.

Here’s the Facebook event: http://bit.ly/7e1f2

Here’s the address: The Victoria Pub, 48 John Bright St, Birmingham, B1 1 BN
