Seeking Producer for TV Pilot (Boston)

Craigslist - Tue, 08/19/2008 - 17:21
Hi there,

We are looking for a local, Boston-based producer to assist us in the production of an independently made Television pilot project that we are making for the NY Television Festival.

The project is fictional and deals with environmental issues and a bit of mystery. Sort of West Wing meets The Wire, or something like that. We've had several script readings in the Boston area and the project has been getting a lot of buzz and has been well received.

Who you are?: You are easygoing, hardworking and probably have experience producing something before. You know Boston and about the Boston crew, equipment and production scene. If you're not the above, but are still interested, let us know why we should go with you.

Most of the current crew are not in Boston, so we are looking for someone to assist with casting and locations starting NOW. The shoot dates will be from September 15-19. Some preproduction will occur before.

Please send us a copy of your resume, a brief note as to why you'd like to work on this project, and what type of compensation you are looking for/generally receive.

This will be a great, positive project with an award-winning director.

Thanks. If you have any questions, just let us know.
