(auto-translated from Dutch Dutch)
Romantic comedy short film that aggressively subverts traditional genre expectations. We are building a delicate, deliberate visual friction: a highly saturated, vibrant Mamma Mia! (2008) baseline environment that eventually implodes into the raw, handheld, shadow-heavy psychological intimacy of Normal People and Fleabag.
What we offer
• A Fresh, Professional Creative Environment: A chance to collaborate with an international, dedicated crew of passionate professionals who are pushing artistic boundaries and refusing to make anything generic.
• High-End Portfolio Material: Access to a beautifully designed, texturally rich set (contrasting messy, raw morning-after realism with formal anniversary attire) that will look stunning in a cinematic stills portfolio.
• Flexible Schedule on Set: BTS coverage will not be required for full days on set. We will work with you to track flexible hours that capture the most visually impactful sequences.
• Expenses Fully Covered: While this is a volunteer/unpaid independent passion project, full on-set catering/meals are provided, and all domestic travel costs within the Netherlands are fully covered by the production.

Description
We have reopened our call to find an Aesthetic / Cinematic BTS Photographer who acts as a fly-on-the-wall visual artist. We refuse to accept flat, sterile, or traditional corporate-style set documentation. If your portfolio is primarily composed of office portraits, clean corporate events, or commercial headshots, this project will unfortunately not be a match.
We need someone whose shots will complement and deepen the story, capturing the psychological layers of the project without fighting against the visual language designed by our Director of Photography (DoP). Ideally, your images look like unreleased film stills or a curated lookbook gallery ready for an independent art magazine. (please see visual mood board below)
Period
Filming days: December 4th - 6th (Friday to Sunday).
For BTS no full set days will be required.
Job requirements / profile
• Gear Independence: You must provide your own professional camera package.
• 100% Silent Shutter: Your camera system must have a completely silent electronic shutter function (or a high-end sound blimp) to shoot quietly during live takes without ruining the sound department's shooting.
• Ambient Light Harmony: Ability to work entirely within the boundaries of our DoP's on-set lighting grid and natural window keys.
• Format Preference: Photographers shooting with digital film-emulation profiles or crossing over with vintage 35mm film stock are highly encouraged.
