M4DM sound designers wanted…

Hi guys,

I thought maybe somebody here would be interested in this opportunity I came accross on the shooting-people newsletter (network, network, network !):

Dear sound geeks,

I’m looking for a sound designer for my graduation film.

The short is an anime style Sci-Fi post-apocalyptic italian comedy… drama… let’s say not the usual student/grad film.

The short was shot with a Red Camera this September and a first assembly is ready.

The looks is pretty stunning so I need an equal stunning sound.

Unfortunately there’s no much monies for the job but a basic expenses refund.

We are planning to do the final mixing session in Pinewood.

The delivery of the final film is for February.

I hope to hear from you.

All the best
