An advantage of this job role is that it is on a freelance basis meaning that you are self employed. This gives you the option where to work and for how long. A disadvantage of this is that when you job is completed you will need to find another immediately afterword. A disadvantage of the job is that it is located in spain, I believe this is a disadvantage because of transportation cost, Language barriers, Being away from family and friends with could be a critical problem if a crisis appears within your personal life.

Job Opportunity

Production: New Dawn (Short Film) Location: Manchester/Salford Employer: Student Duration: 2 days, starts Last week of March (non-Equity artist contracts)

Payment is on a lo/no/deferred basis. Director: Ian Dunning. It’s 2045, the UK is in ruins, there have been a number of disasters through out the years, which have had lasting damage on the public, and the UK’s resources, these failings to protect the public have brought large unrest to the UK population. Campaigning on a policy of change and stability Dawn Phillips has just won the general election. We enter on a meeting between Dawn and a small selection of the best advisors in the country as they try and work out a full plan as to how to get the country back in running order and back to the days that the older public fondly remembers. During the meeting we follow through the discussions/arguments as to what needs to be done on the main subjects currently in the publics eye, these are flooding, drinking water supplies, UK’s energy security and possible population problems. During these discussions we will occasionally have a flashback to the disaster or to the publics reaction to the disasters. As the meeting draws out the new PM starts to get more and more exhausted and depressed with the arguments between the solutions and the debate if they are worth the financial cost to the country and if the solutions are just quick shortcuts, which could have a bigger impact in the future. Actors need to be located around Manchester or North West of England or be willing to cover their own expenses. Apply to: newdawn2045@gmail.com

Pre-Production
A film director would work with the producer and the casting manger during the pre-production stage. The casting manger would recommend actors and choose actors for the director to hire. A producer would hire the director during the delvopment process. A location manger would also work closely with the director because they are the ones who pick the location, and the location is part of the visual side of production. A costume designer would work with the director during this stage.

Production/Filming:
During filming the director would visualise the film shots and camera work. The director would also conduct the cast, during this stage the actors would work closely with the director, this is because the director would tell the actors to act in a way that they think is suitable for a scene. The Cinematographer would work closely with the director because they are in charge of the lighting of the film, again they are both joined because of the visuals. A make up artist would also work with the director during this process.
