Set Design/Art Department (m/f/d) for a student short film project

Application phase closed
Job description

Hey lovelies!

Here are Carlos (director, writer) and Lukas (director) and we are looking for you as Set Designer/Art Department for our short film project Chief Fortune Writer (AT)!
After receiving a grant of 3,000 euros from the Film- und Mediennachwuchsförderung Rheinland Pfalz, we are now putting together our crew and are therefore also looking for a person who would like to take over the set design, the costumes and the props construction. Of course, we will then discuss everything in detail. If you would like support, that would be no problem! We will know shortly how much of the total budget is available for your work.

In Chief Fortune Writer (AT) (10-15 minutes), we meet fortune cookie writer Farah, who finds out that everything he writes in fortune cookies actually comes true for readers. With his new ability, he tries to find his daughter who disappeared years ago...

This drama deals with themes such as dreams and hope and asks which people are actually family to us. The narrative style of the story reflects a race against fate and luck. With the means at our disposal, we want to get the maximum out of simple sets so that the stirring script can also become a great movie. (This project is a student project)

Do you recognize yourself here? Then get in touch with us if you want to be part of this journey! We look forward to getting to know you and, if you are interested, telling you more about the project and ourselves!

Contact: Carlos

Procurement also falls within your area of responsibility.
We as directors are of course on hand with help and advice.
