Camera for Commercial

An independent production is seeking a highly skilled and experienced Senior 1st Assistant Camera for an upcoming commercial project. This is a dynamic, high-energy shoot for a lifestyle brand, blending modern aesthetic with a natural, authentic tone. We're looking for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment and can maintain critical focus and camera readiness. The DIT will be on set, and we're looking for someone who can work closely with us to ensure a smooth workflow. Key responsibilities include precision focusing, maintaining camera and lens packages, managing media, and troubleshooting on set. You'll be working primarily with ARRI Mini LF and Cooke S7/i lenses, so strong familiarity with this setup is essential. You'll need to provide your own follow focus system and essential tools kit. We anticipate a 3-day shoot, likely the first week of September 2026, with 1-2 prep days beforehand. Compensation is $300-500/day, depending on experience. Lunch and craft services will be provided. Please submit your resume, a brief cover letter outlining your relevant experience, and a link to your reel (if applicable) demonstrating your work on similar commercial projects. We aim to make a decision by October 9, 2026.
