    News technical director job in Washington, DC

    Sight is a new scifi and fantasy web series being produced in Washington, D.C. The first six episodes, based on a short story by Justin McLachlan, debuted at the Mead Theatre Lab at Flashpoint in May as a stage reading, thanks to a grant from the DC Commission on the Arts & Humanities. More details: ************************************************************************************************************************************* The producers are looking to attach a director to handle eight, 15 - 20 minute episodes. Principal photography is currently slated for the fall, but the schedule is evolving and subject to change. The series is currently in a fundraising phase that involves a combination of grants and crowdfunding. Total project budget is between $20,000 and $30,0000. Here's what we're hoping for in a candidate: Experience. We're looking for someone with experience and a portfolio, but that doesn't necessarily mean paid work - short films you've done on the side or for things like the 48 Hour Film Festival are acceptable as experience. It's the quality of the work that matters. Bonus points for significant green screen / compositing work. Resourcefulness. Our budget is really tight and some days you might be working with a small crew or limited equipment. Excellent Time Management. Our current schedule is ambitious; you'll have a lot of coverage to shoot on a lot of pages per day and your ability to stay on track is super important (see above re: tight budget). Teamwork. This project is probably a little different than what you're used to doing, especially if you've never worked in episodic television before. A lot of creative decisions, from locations to casting to story, have already been made by the producers. Your primary responsibilities will be to run the set and get the needed coverage each shooting day. We need someone who can work within this framework. Here's what we need to get started: a portfolio (ideally links to your projects), an idea of your salary requirements (keeping in mind our limited budget), potential scheduling conflicts for the upcoming fall and winter (put those in the cover letter section) and a resume. Members of the DGA are encouraged and welcome to apply, however we are not yet a DGA signatory (we will pursue that if we're interested in working with a DGA member). Please keep in mind there are no guaranteed minimums on a DGA New Media contract. Sight is a SAG-AFTRA production.
