Hello everyone, I'd love to hear from self shooting documentary directors, especially anyone who's worked with bands / on music documentaries. We're pitching a short and fast turnaround doc to a major music label - shooting would be throughout feb and the beginning of March focusing on a new girl band and the young female manager trying to shake up the industry. Full transparency - rate depends what kind of interest we have from the label, but may be a fun project and we would try to renumerate to industry standard. I'm on [email protected] for questions and please send showreels / experience. Thank you
