Crew call: Looking for a Key Grip and an Assistant Editor that can work locally in mid-northern New Jersey - Lake Hopatcong - from August 12-Sept 4th. It's a low budget psychological horror feature we're producing at Prodigium Pictures - all properly payrolled, good food etc.; non-union crew and SAG. Most of the film takes place in a single house.

Key Grip is $7,700 payrolled for 17 days of filming and 2 days of prep; AE is $9,000 payrolled for 17 days of filming (on-set ingest sync and assembly) plus about 1-2 weeks post-production to finish the assembly and hand it over to the editor.

Both have to work local at Lake Hopatcong, that's a must from a budget and Tax Credit perspective. All recommendations are welcome!
Please comment here, DM or - that's the easiest - email our coordinator Elyza at [email protected] . Looking to make these hires ASAP.

Calling all Jersey- based film crew! 🎬🎬

We're thrilled to provide some employment after these hard last 2 years. We at Prodigium Pictures are producing a feature film in New Jersey that'll be shooting for 3.5 weeks, from mid-August through September. Feel free to share this with your friends!

The project is an indie psychological horror film with a wonderful cast, and we're staffing all departments over the next 3 weeks. DoP and 1st AD roles are taken, the rest is wide open!

We'd love to hear from you or get any recommendations you have; we'll be filming on the rim of the 30 mile zone, and crew has to work as NJ locals. Our production coordinator Elyza Halpern is in charge of intake- feel free to comment here or email her at [email protected] .

While it's a humble-sized production, rest assured that we're doing everything by the book - payroll, good food, safe working hours, 5-day weeks and all that good stuff.

All recommendations are much appreciated!

Tune in to this amazing panel moderated by our Head of Production Tessa Byford .

Join us for a compelling webinar on February 15, 2024, at 11 am PDT, “Exploring Race & Heritage through the Lenses of Science & Entertainment”. 🎉 This panel is brought to you by SIE Society and Harvard Medical School’s Personal Genetics Education Project

Our modern understanding of race is informed by both the entertainment we watch and the science we read. This panel will address what few conversations have been willing to explore: the science of genetic traits, the social impact of on-screen stories, and their combined influence on our ideas about race.

Our esteemed speakers include Dr. Tina Lasisi, a renowned biological anthropologist and host of PBS’ “Why am I like this?”, known for her groundbreaking work on how evolutionary biology explains questions about race and ethnicity; Alison McDonald, Emmy-nominated writer of the critically acclaimed “Roots” reboot, which captured audiences with its poignant portrayal of Alex Haley’s journey to uncover her family’s erased roots in Gambia due to generations of enslavement; and moderated by Tessa Byford-Lopez, a Quechua woman and Film & TV Producer, who brings her unique perspective having been adopted from an indigenous community in her birth country of Peru and navigating identity in a predominantly white environment in Pennsylvania. This diverse panel promises profound insights into the interplay between genetics, on-screen narratives, and personal heritage, challenging and bringing to light how storytelling influences our collective understanding of race.

A great mention for Prodigium and in ANA Magazine about our 2021 video, “The Anthem” for ExtremeReach about the involved CGI artistry behind the location.

“The company reconstructed the library’s interior using CGI based on a digital model previously created buy another filmmaker, combined it with virtual sculptures it had built with its CGI team, then composited an actress into the virtual space. The result was stunningly realistic — and came in on time.”
