About: West of the 100th is an independent, cinematic documentary series exploring the forgotten frontier towns, harsh water infrastructure, and high-desert landscapes of the American Southwest. Led by an independent producer, this multi-county regional production combines premium 10-bit digital cinema workflows with deep Southwestern history to capture the vastness of the landscape and deliver a 26:46 broadcast master targeting Public Television syndication.
Information: We are seeking a Lead Director of Photography to command our provided Panasonic Lumix S5 II cinema package in the field, as well as a Story & Remote Producer to manage historical research, subject pre-interviews, and logistical coordination off-set. These are unpaid, non-union pilot proof-of-concept roles designed for ambitious filmmakers looking to earn an IMDb credit and a 26:46 broadcast master for their portfolio. Production strictly covers 100% of travel, lodging, and on-location meals for all shoot days, including our multi-day mountain embed in Timberon, NM.
