Senior UPM for Sci-Fi Drama Pilot (Partnership)

Hey filmmakers, I'm a Director/Writer seeking an experienced Unit Production Manager (UPM) to partner with on a thrilling sci-fi drama pilot. This isn't just a job, it's an opportunity for a co-producer credit and backend participation. The pilot explores mind-bending concepts and complex character relationships in a near-future Atlanta setting, think Black Mirror meets Arrival. It's a high-concept piece with a strong emotional core. Your core responsibilities will include managing budgets, schedules, logistics, and crew coordination from prep through wrap. You'll be the backbone of our operation, ensuring everything runs smoothly and on time. We need someone who’s truly senior, with a proven track record on independent productions, ideally pilots or features of a similar scale. Bring your organizational prowess and problem-solving skills, because we're looking for someone who can navigate the complexities of indie filmmaking with grace. You'll need to demonstrate experience with production software and best practices in budgeting and scheduling. Please submit your resume or CV and a reel or portfolio showcasing your previous UPM work. While we're not providing gear for this role, your expertise is the most important asset. Tentative shoot dates are late summer/early fall in Atlanta, GA, with flexible pre-production hours leading up to principal photography. Let's make something amazing together.
