Do you consider yourself a story teller first and a cinematographer second? Then we’d love to hear from you.
Unique D.P./Director Position
Our production company Joke Productions is hiring for an upcoming television series. Show will include cinematic recreations and stylistically lit interviews.
We’re looking for cinematographers who like to experiment, are willing to create a fresh look on a tight schedule, and aren’t afraid to work with a small crew.
This job requires an indie, “get it done” attitude.
Additionally, we’d like to meet with D.P.’s who are comfortable directing actors in non-dialogue driven scenes.
You’ll also be working with our in-house VFX artist to ensure some shots can be enhanced with CG elements.
The variety of material you’ll shoot should provide you with a diverse range of new shots for your reel.
If you want to work side by side with the two of us on a brand new show airing later this year on a major cable network, let’s talk…
The Look
We don’t want to make just another “recreation show.”
Please be willing to brainstorm and have fun. You’ll pitch creative camera angles and unique approaches to scene coverage.
While the budget is not huge, our company is known for solving problems with creativity. We’d like a D.P./Director who shares that mentality.
Cameras
A-cam will be a Canon C-300 with a variety of lenses.
Several DSLR’s, GoPros, and other crash cams are available for unique angles.
Location
Los Angeles based to begin, then traveling the country.
Pay
Pay is commensurate with experience.
If you’re a shooter on the level of Larry Fong, we can’t afford you.
That said, this is not a “fresh out of film school” position. We’re budgeted for an experienced DP.
