Job Description

We're looking for a skilled DP to shoot a wedding. However, this isn't a typical wedding video. The project is being approached as a short documentary: cinematic, observational, and narrative-driven. Think verité coverage, intentional b-roll, and short sit-down interviews woven into a cohesive story. What we're looking for:
  • A documentary background with a strong, distinctive visual sensibility
  • Confident in low-light environments (ceremony and reception lighting will be unpredictable)
  • Experienced with gimbal operation
  • Comfortable executing up a basic lighting setup on the fly when needed
  • Capable of managing a simple in-camera audio workflow (camera-mounted shotgun mic and wireless lav) The gear: We provide a Lumix S5 package (with a few primes, some LEDs and mics).
However, if you prefer to work with your own camera and lenses, you're welcome to; please include kit details and a rental quote in your submission. Note that the equipment budget is modest, so please keep that in mind.
To apply:
Send your resume or list of relevant credits along with links to your work or reel. Documentary or wedding work is especially relevant.
