Gaffer for Indie Feature, Atlanta

Feature Film Cinematography Atlanta, GA entry Budget: Credit + meals

Hey filmmakers, I'm reaching out from an independent production looking for a Gaffer for an upcoming feature film. This project is a gritty crime drama, think early 2000s indie thrillers, with a lot of practical lighting challenges and opportunities for some really cool visual storytelling. We're aiming for a raw, naturalistic look. As our Gaffer, you'll be responsible for executing the lighting plan, managing the grip and electric team, and ensuring all lighting equipment is safe and functional. We need someone who can work resourcefully and creatively, as we're a lean crew. You should have some prior experience, even if it's on smaller sets, and ideally have some familiarity with common lighting setups and safety protocols. While we won't be able to pay a standard rate, we're offering full screen credit, delicious meals on set, and a great opportunity to build your network and portfolio on a feature. Please send over your resume and a reel or some examples of your work. We're looking at principal photography in late summer, early fall, likely 15-20 shoot days. Specific dates TBD, but we're moving quickly. Let's make something awesome together!
