Job description

An independent production is seeking a Gaffer for an upcoming commercial project based in Atlanta, GA. This commercial will feature a clean, bright aesthetic with a focus on product shots and a vibrant, energetic tone. We're looking for someone creative who can bring a polished, high-end look to the final piece. Key responsibilities include designing and executing lighting setups, managing the lighting team (if applicable), and ensuring all electrical safety protocols are met. We prefer candidates who can bring their own basic lighting package (HMI/LEDs, stands, modifiers), but specific needs can be discussed. Experience on commercial sets is a plus, but we're open to all experience levels; a strong reel demonstrating your lighting capabilities is essential. The shoot is currently penciled in for 1-2 days during the first half of October 2026, with some prep days beforehand. We will provide craft services and a safe, collaborative working environment.
