Close up magic promo video

Booking a DP/videographer for a 3-minute promo for my strolling magic act (corporate + high-end private events). Think cinematic lifestyle commercial — polished, warm, not edgy.

Scope:

1 shoot day, 2 LA locations (rooftop bar + hotel-style venue). Monologue VO, on-camera intro, 3 close-up magic effects with tight insert shots, reaction footage with 6-10 guests.

Need:

gimbal, lavs, at least one cine lens, ability to shoot tight on hands for sleight of hand. Edit included preferred but open to splitting.

Budget:

[your number — $1500-3000 for shoot+edit is realistic for this scope] Shoot date: targeting [date ~10 days out]

Deliverable:

3-min hero cut + 30-sec teaser + vertical cut, final by [date]. Send reel + rate. Bonus if you've shot close-up product, food, or magic.
