Ten Years in the industry shooting pro TV and high end video, I believe I could be an asset to your film.
Full time with WIN TV for 5 years, I've been Freelancing now for 5 years relying on quality work as a camera operator/producer/editor for repeat business.
If you require someone with lighting expertise who can shoot the vision that can be put together in a concise fashion with professional continuity i believe I do it better than anyone.
Most films are shot on a camera with a large sensor, which means it's high quality and gives that shallow depth of field look. DSLRs are a cheap way of gaining this look. Not sure what you had in mind in regard to cameras but the type of camera and the quality of person using it will be one of the most important things to consider if you want your film to look professional.
Also a 40 min film means probably at least 100 mins of raw vision so that could be a few days shooting.
If we can sort out a time in between my other work I would be happy to help out.
Kind Regards,
Ben
