Description:
After graduating form Boston University film school last year, I set out to build a job finding and networking site for people in the film and graphic arts industry. Since it is really hard to find talented cast and crew in your area without money, (URL removed) acts like a combination of Myspace and craigslist. Filmmakers, actors, cinematographers etc.. can post their online multimedia resume, including video, audio and images and people who need these creatives can either post ads and review responses or they can look for their specific needs and make contacts. (for example-- a director can look for a female actress, blond hair, 5 ft4 inches, non union, manhattan ny, works for no-pay-- in a matter of seconds.
We beta launched last week-- I understand the only way this type of networking/job findng site can succeed is if there are many filmmakers and actors part of the site. This cost money for advertising and with todays economy - VC is insanley hard to come by.
I really value your advice and I wanted to know if you could give me some suggestions, check out my site and help me in any way that you can.
All the best,
jeremy
