What do
you do? Are you an agency or something?
We are a ‘first contact’
service. You request a Final Cut Studio Operator and we
contact over 180 operators in one fell swoop. Of those that
are interested and available, we select between one and
three of the very best according to:
1) Feedback from previous employers
2) The quality of their profiles (Each operator has
a PROFILE
- a summery of
their skills, reel and empoymet history as maintained on
our database)
3) Suitability to the job as you described in your
OPERATOR REQUEST FORM.
Essentially our
service is to recommmend the best operators that are
AVAILABLE NOW and provide you with their contact details.
It is designed to take the risk, effort and wasted time out
of finding the right FINAL CUT STUDIO talent for your
upcoming job.
Think of us like a DATING
SERVICE for operators and employers!
Where
can I see the editor’s show reels and
CV’s?
Viewing of candidates CV’s
and Reels should be arranged directly with the operator
after you have received a match-up.
What
are the editor’s rates?
They vary and THE TALENT
REGISTRY has nothing to do with them whatsoever.
Don’t worry - this is a good thing! Many agencies will
charge you an inflated rate for an operator and in turn pay
the operator much less. So, far from getting what you pay
for, you pay for one thing
and get something worth far less. That clearly sucks. Pay
properly, get work done. Lets not mess with that formula.
Perhaps you are looking to pay a little less for the
operator because you don’t need Jill Bilcock for your
not-for-broadcast corperate job. No problem. Mention
this in your
OPERATOR REQUEST FORM. We do have good quality
graduates and less exerienced operators who are happy to
work for a reduced rate.
It is assumed that standard industry rates apply unless
otherwised specified - $40-$70 (Aus) per hour OR £220-£400
per day (UK). This is made completely clear on the
OPERATOR REQUEST FORM.
What
stops me from working with these editors in the
future without
using The
Talent Registry?
Nothing - go for it! (See
- told you we weren’t like those ‘agencies’)
The thing is that everyone
likes to have
their own favorite editors on their books. We know that.
But sooner or later you’re going to need an editor and your
favorites aren’t going to be there.
This is the niche covered by the FCP TALENT
REGISTRY. We
are your other ‘books’.
