Production Pilot

Seeking a dedicated 1st AC for a 3-day pilot shoot, deferred payment (backend percentage) for a broadcast network pitch. Prep and gear check expected the last week of October 2026, with the shoot scheduled for the first week of November 2026. Our independent production is developing a comedic pilot, a workplace dramedy set in a quirky Brooklyn co-working space. The tone is sharp, character-driven, and visually dynamic, aiming for a modern, slightly stylized look that complements the humor.

We're looking for someone who can maintain sharp focus, manage camera systems efficiently, and support the DP and camera department with a positive attitude on a fast-paced set. Responsibilities include pulling focus, maintaining camera equipment, assisting with lens changes, and ensuring smooth operation of all camera department tasks. While this is an independent project, we're aiming for high production value.

You'll need to provide your own follow focus system and basic camera toolkit. Experience on a narrative set is preferred, but we're open to working with passionate individuals looking to build their reel. Please submit your resume or a brief overview of relevant experience. We’re providing lunch, snacks, and a great opportunity to be part of a promising project.
