ROXANNE is a short drama exploring the bond that develops between a trans-gendered sex worker in London and an abandoned 12 year old girl.

Roxanne is a funded short film shooting in London 25-29 July 2014. The film is also currently crowd funding an extra £10K to allow the production to shoot on 35mm film.

A London based Second Assistant Director is required and will be paid £70 per day, inclusive of travel, for the five days of production. Pre production is not paid. It goes without saying food and refreshments will be provided on set.

The successful candidate will be responsible for the production of daily call sheets, movements orders and any other necessary documents that support the production and need to be distributed among crew and cast. These documents will need to be completed one week prior to production. These documents may be subject to change during the production. During the pre production the successful candidate will be required to participate in location recces and potentially complete risk assessments in my absence.

During production you will be my right hand and support the back end of the set (ensure cast and crew arrive on time, ensure cast are dressed and ready for stand by). The usual drill. You will also distribute designated tasks to runners and manage them effectively. Courtesy and good manners are a mandatory efficacy of this role.

It is essential you have a good working knowledge of Celtx production management software as this is the tool being used to breakdown and manage the schedule.

Access to Skype is essential for interview. I am seeking a bright, committed, hard working person and these qualities will be more influential than an extensive CV. Demonstrate you understand the role, have some experience of it, are able to perform to a high standard and have a genuine interest in working in production and you stand a good chance of being selected. I am posting on Shooting People because I want to give someone a chance. For the successful candidate this is a huge opportunity to step up, grow and land a high profile, high production value short film for your CV.

Due to the nature of the project the successful candidate must be comfortable working with trans-gendered people.

Roxanne is produced by Akua Obeng-Frimpong and photographed by Rina Yang. I am the 1st Assistant Director.

EDIT: I know how unhelpful the new SP format is, its limited word count and inability to permit attachments. Therefore please email applications directly tocontact@hanslucas.co.uk. Feel free to include links to IMBD, trailer and video examples of your work and anything else you feel is relevant.

‘Being 75’

You are never too old to enjoy the things you love, and you are never to young to share life’s ‘cooler’ moments with those who have been here before. In Being Seventy Five, Jane struggles to incorporate her mother Norah’s youthful, rock and roll outlook into her busy life. It soon becomes clear that being cool has nothing to do with age, and that sometimes simply sharing a can of coke can bring different generations together.

Crew Calls: Editor and VFX Artist

The Intruder

On a barren moorland a young man encounters a strange floating black cube. The Intruder is a surrealist film about a man facing up to those things he fears the most. Mixing live action and CGI, it has been shot in Ireland on a RED Scarlet and post production is taking place in London.

Visual Effects:

Looking to find a VFX collaborator for some major scenes in the film. We will be compositing an abstract object into plates and are looking for people experienced with compositing, texturing and rendering. Models will be built and animated in C4D. Needs to look reasonably realistic despite being abstract in nature, so for example if you think using VRAY / Maxwell etc will lend itself well to this we can incorporate rate that. Will be working with a motion designer / animator.

Pay: £200 p/day

Apply: james@greeble.tv

Editor:

Looking for an editor to put together an atmospheric edit.
Experience required
If experienced on working with VFX shots then all the better (as in some places there will be cases of working with VFX shots that are not completed yet)

Pay: £150 p/day

Apply: james@greeble.tv

Sound Designer:

There are two parts to this role:

First of all an important element of the story is an abstract cube object which advances on the main character, taking on characteristics of his greatest fears.. Visually this is being built as a VFX composited object but equally important in the script is how this object sounds. Throughout the film it transforms from its initial form, which is vague and distant, into a shifting, morphing object which emits noises based on the main character’s fear, the loss of his brother who is in hospital.

For this we need to create an abstract soundscape from hospital noises, beeping, dripping, intercom sounds, which initially is hugely distorted but becomes clear as the story progresses.

Secondly, due to the ridiculous wind on our shoot location some of our location sound is unusable, we’d like to build up some foley elements to complement the music currently being composed

Pay: £200 prorata

Apply: james@greeble.tv

Casting Calls – Lee

A charismatic former army lieutenant with a public school background. His now cool exterior bottles up an explosive temperament. His marriage fell apart when he began physically abusing his wife.

Casting Calls – Asbo

Deceptively charming, provocative and fearless: a fire-cracker likely to explode when least expected, he is a joker. A Canadian, he has been living on the street, in and out of gaol. Incapable of getting his life together he sees no point in going on living. Lee, his former lieutenant, is the only person he respects.

Casting Calls- Vi

Physically powerful and explosive, he feels misled having to fight in a war that had no national interest objectives. Incapable of getting his life together; his wife and children not able to motivate him he relies on drug abuse to ease the pain.

Casting Calls – Wheatie

Alison’s sister, a capable policewoman who has blended with her professional role to become a functionary who finds little joy in her job.

Casting Calls – Croftie

Although unable to find much joy in her life she lacks the courage to end it. Nevertheless she believes she can change her colleagues’ minds about ending theirs. She lives with a female partner.

Casting Calls – Alison’s Mother

As ineffectual as many mothers become to influence their married children’s lives. So, she does what she can: worry quietly.

Casting Calls – Aritha

Croftie’s partner. A postal worker. Solid and determined

Casting Calls – Jimmy

Insecure, he’s not sure why he’s there. He believes his wife would be better off if he were dead, free to meet someone who would be a proper husband and a competent father to their children.
