Job description

When a brilliant but reclusive scientist discovers a wormhole in his basement, he must decide if humanity is ready for the cosmos. We are an independent production looking for an organized and enthusiastic entry‑level Line Producer to join our team for an exciting sci‑fi drama pilot. This project aims to blend a grounded, character‑driven story with ambitious visual concepts, and we're looking for someone who can help us bring this vision to life efficiently. We value collaboration and a passion for independent filmmaking. Key responsibilities include assisting with budget management, coordinating logistics (locations, permits, equipment rentals), scheduling crew and talent, and ensuring smooth day‑to‑day operations on set. You'll work closely with the UPM and Director to keep the production on track and within scope. No specific gear is required, but a strong understanding of film production workflow, excellent organizational skills, and a proactive attitude are essential. While this is an entry‑level role, prior experience in production coordination, assistant directing, or other production office roles is a plus. Shoot dates are tentatively planned for a total of 10‑12 days in late October 2026, with some prep work commencing late September 2026. This is a Brooklyn, NY based production. Hours will vary, typical of a film set. Compensation is negotiable based on experience. Please share your resume and any relevant project experience.
