Release date: July 15, 2008
The Global Lives Project is planning a shoot in China in September 2008. We will be recording the life story and 24 hours in the life of a as-yet-to-be-selected Chinese person.
We are a nonprofit educational arts organization with more than 100 collaborators in 8 countries and we are looking for volunteers in China to participate in the project. While participation will not be remunerated, the project offers broad, worldwide exposure for collaborators’ work and the opportunity to be a part of a growing and dynamic collective of creative and socially-minded filmmakers.
We specifically need the following types of people and organizations:
Partner Institutions in China – We are looking to partner with a university’s communications department, a museum, a video production studio, or any other cultural institution interested in being involved in the shoot from start to finish, and with organizing an exhibition in the future.
China Co-director/producer – Involved in subject selection process from the beginning, making preparations for shoot on the ground. Approximately 6-8 days total of time commitment including preparations and shoot. Also involved in post-production.
Camera operator – Commitment for the day of the shoot only + transportation time. Works usually in 2-person teams for 8-hour shifts.
Photographer – Day of shoot only + transport, 8 or 12-hour shifts.
Production assistant (good position for a film student) – Providing support throughout selection process to the director/producers with preparations for shoot. Commitment to assist with post-production also helpful.
Interpreter/translator – Needed for the day of the shoot as well as for post-production.
We already have four volunteers ready to join with local collaborators to produce the shoot: Nobuhiro Awata, Ya-Hsuan Huang, Ron Carr and David Harris. Nobuhiro and Ron co-directed and did camerawork on the Tokyo GL shoot, Ya-Hsuan co-directed the Malawi shoot. David Harris co-directed and produced the GL shoots in Brazil and the US. Ron will be bringing camera equipment from Japan, though some additional equipment will be needed on-site. The shoot will take place in a to-be-determined rural area in China between September 12 and 24.
