Job Description

Bold, quirky comedy seeking a Co-Producer for a two or three day short film this July

Comedy isn't for everyone and working on tiny shoe-string budgets is not always ideal. But if the alternative is to not make something funny with a lot of heart then the show must go on.

We are currently working on access to a great camera, a cinematographer and some locations. Looking to bring another resourceful person to our dynamic team. Everyone on board has a can do attitude and hopefully that's you as well.

This is a fast-paced 5 page comedy, revolving around a neurotic protagonist who can't go to sleep! When they do go to sleep it's temporary so they live their life in a zombie sleepwalking state but with some slapstick comedy. It's less dialogue based and more visual to convey the comedy of operating on no sleep.

We're in the process of assembling a crew with casting to follow. I'm looking for someone that can actually bring something to the film that will make this production easier. Whether it's a location, access to some more equipment or professionals

It's a bold comedy so we need a bold co-producer who is up for the challenge. Unless our producer can ''find money'' there isn't any money to pay but maybe a dark funny short film would be considered an achievement. Everyone is donating time, equipment and themselves to make this festival bound short a reality. If you have access to any locations or anything please let us know in your message.

Take a few minutes to Let us know why a challenge like this might interest you and what you can bring to this project. We're more interested in ability to help over experience as well as ability to read the entirety of this post.
