Line Producer, Dramatic Short Film (NOLA)

Hey filmmakers, DeShawn here, a Best Boy Grip on an exciting upcoming independent short film. We're looking for a sharp, experienced Line Producer to join our team in New Orleans. This is a dramatic piece, a little gritty with some psychological thriller elements, exploring themes of resilience and difficult choices. It's an ambitious script for a short, and we’re aiming for festival success. We need someone who can hit the ground running with budgeting, scheduling, and overall logistics for a demanding shoot. You’ll be responsible for keeping us on track and on budget, managing resources, and ensuring a safe and efficient production. We're seeking a mid-level professional with a solid track record in independent film, especially shorts. Please have a good understanding of NOLA film resources and an ability to problem-solve creatively. Send over your resume and a brief cover letter outlining your relevant experience. Shoot dates are approximately 10-12 days in late Fall, TBD based on key crew availability, likely 12-14 hour days. Compensation is $2000-3000/week, negotiable based on experience. We'll provide a production office and all necessary software.
