The little or no pay makes me wonder as would the
liability issues involved here.

Cavers,
I have been approached by a friend who is a
director for a local Austin film production
company. They are working on a new movie that
is partially based in a cave. They have
permission to film in a cave in north Austin as
well as in an on-trail portion of Sonora. They
will be filming between the dates of August 26
and Sept 5th with their time split between
locations. He was asking for a caver or cavers
to assist in filming at both locations. I have
already put out feelers to specific cavers for
the filming in Sonora so they get first dibs,
but the n. Austin work still needs a vertical
caver's expertise for a day or so.
In Austin they will be simulating entering and
exiting a vertical cave mostly using stunt
doubles and cables, but they would like a caver
there to help make sure they are using the gear
correctly (and therefore it looks real) etc
etc. There is some possibility of training and
actually helping them rappel and maybe
providing SOME gear, but those details are a bit fuzzy at the moment.
In Sonora, they will be getting on rope and
needing quality vertical caving guidance and
assistance as well as filming the in-cave
portions of their movie. Sonora will take a
few days to complete but there will only be one
day of vertical work. They would like a very
confident vertical caver there the entire time to assist.
Please let me know if you are interested/able
and I can get you in touch with the producer to
work out the details. There might be some
small payment for the help, but mostly this is
being requested as volunteer help. Since this
is rope work with novices, I am asking that
only serious cavers with good vertical
experience step up if your interested. Between
one and three cavers are needed, so if there is
a lot of response, only a few will be able to help, just FYI.
Please contact me off-line if you are
interested and able to assist and we can go from there. Thank you!
Happy Caving!
