Hi. I need a 12 second digital opening sequence for a low budget short film and would like to know if anyone is interested.  I can only pay 300 USD or so as it's a low budget film for which the budget ran out two years ago but there would be a film credit as well.

The original footage was shot in the Philippines and starts with the main actor arriving at night in a white van down a long driveway. The footage needed is a sweeping aerial shot of a jungle type setting following the white van along a road from high above (with headlights) as it turns right into a smaller road.

The full version of the film can be seen at: http://exposureroom.com/members/CJ/ec28d53bb66849f28d19e8e27e5ba8c1/ and the van arriving is about a minute or so into the film.

I'm creating this short from the longer version which did well at the festivals (several best films, best actress, best director) and it has a known UK actress from BBC's Holby City and Filipino soap star, but isn't dynamic enough for broadcast - hence the creation af a short and need for the digital aerial opening sequence to spice things up.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

 I'd be willing to take a look...but I went to the link and didn't see the film section you mentioned. What is the name of the film I should be looking for? What format do you need the footage in? What, if any is the deadline?

Ok...I found it...so you want a digital van driving up the road with a crane shot from above with the headlights from the van as the lighting of the surrounding tropical brush, then you will cut to the real van etc?
