Small Film Crew Needed for One-Day Actor Scene Shoot in NYC

Working Actor Masterclass is seeking a small film crew for a one-day actor scene shoot in NYC on Sunday, August 16, 2026.

This shoot is part of a four-day actor training intensive where actors rehearse original scripted scenes throughout the weekend, then film them on Sunday in a focused, collaborative environment.

We are looking for creative, reliable film students, recent grads, or new filmmakers who can work efficiently with actors and help capture approximately 5 fully rehearsed scripted scenes. This is a strong opportunity to gain set experience, build credits, collaborate with trained actors, and create polished portfolio material.

This is an ultra low budget educational/training project, so we are not pretending this is a full commercial-rate shoot. We are looking for collaborators who understand the scale of the project, can work with a small setup, and are excited by the chance to help actors create strong scene footage.
