Locations for Pilot

Hey filmmakers! We're looking for a seasoned Unit Production Manager for an upcoming pilot shoot in Albuquerque, NM. This is a dramatic dark comedy, think Coen Brothers meets Breaking Bad, with a really fresh take on a classic crime caper. We need someone who can hit the ground running and manage the logistics, budget, and crew for this independent production. You'll be responsible for overseeing day-to-day operations, liaising with department heads, keeping us on schedule, and making sure our finances are tracked meticulously. Experience managing a full crew, securing permits, and a strong understanding of union (or non-union equivalent) practices are essential. Please have a proven track record (references will be requested) and share any relevant UPM credits you have. This isn't a first-time UPM gig; we need someone with leadership experience and excellent problem-solving skills. Shoot dates are approximately late April or early May for about 5-7 days of principal photography, with prep starting a few weeks prior. Long days (10-12 hours) are to be expected. We're providing catering, craft services, and production insurance, of course. Day rate is $300-500, commensurate with experience. Looking forward to hearing from you!
