We are looking for a Production Designer to join our team for our independent feature film set to film in Chester, NY on July 2022 with a more focused Pre-Production starting on May 23, 2022.
To tell you a bit more about the story, Sleep Talking tells the story of Maya, a 15-yr old protective sister who schemes to solve her family’s decades-old mystery, only to discover that her sister’s sleep talking may be more sinister than it seems. (https://sleeptalking.film/)
We’ll be shooting in upstate NY (roughly 2hrs outside the city) on a Tuesday – Saturday schedule with lodging, transpo, and meals provided. The rate would be $21/hr with OT of 1.5x beyond 8 hours in a day (we’re planning on 10-hr days). We will be following strict COVID safety protocols, including provided PPE and production-wide vaccination mandates.
For this role, we are looking for someone with feature film experience, who is proactive through pre-production, and is a communicative, supportive leader within their department. This film is fairly art heavy since it is set predominantly in 1997 with flashbacks to 1929. It is live-action but has some dream sequences with puppeteered sheets, so a stop-motion background is a plus!
