Production job
We are producing a feature film. The story takes place in 15th century Prague. There is a tinge of fantasy running through the story line. We are shooting this story in a unique way. Ninety five percent of the film is being shot in still images and we will be shooting the actors/models against a green screen. We will then have photo realistic CGI backgrounds created and will lay the images over these backgrounds. During the editing process, we will pan across the images, zoom in and out, as well as adding the appropriate FX to give the project life. The final product will look like a graphic novel that has come to life. The voiceovers as well as the storyboards for the project have already been created. We are looking for someone that can produce this project from start to finish; pre production, shooting, and editing etc. Anticipated end date of this project is mid March 2009. We are operating on a shoe string budget. This will no doubt be a great notch in any aspiring filmmakers? belt. The project is being done in the NY, NJ Metropolitan area.
