Website KAYPUN SCRIPTED


Seeking a professional, reliable, and mobile Gaffer for our independent series Behind the Blocks. This is not just a production—it’s a movement. The series shines a light on powerful, real-world issues facing our communities, and each episode is crafted to spark conversation, healing, and awareness.

Requirements:

  • Local to the 757/804/DMV area (preferred)
  • Must be mobile and professional with strong time management
  • Bring your own equipment (preferred, but not required — lighting kit available if needed)
  • Positive, team-oriented, and ready to have fun while creating powerful work

Compensation & Perks:

  • $200/day with own equipment
  • $150/day if using our equipment
  • IMDb Credit
  • Meals & craft services provided
  • Networking opportunities with a growing team of creatives
  • One complimentary guest ticket to the Private Screening of Episode 2 (2026)
  • Potential for ongoing work on the remainder of the season + other productions

We’re a professional but fun team of creators (But I am a one person production company), dedicated to storytelling that matters. If you’re ready to bring your skills, creativity, and energy to a project with impact, let’s connect.

To Apply: Send your info, portfolio/reel (if available), and availability for Nov. 7–13
