Hi, I'm an actor and producer looking for a director & crew for my short film, and am wondering (in addition to Stage32), are there sites out there where I can post an ad that I'm seeking crew?
Peggy, thank you for letting me know about your makeup experience. I need to find a director and DP, lights, and audio first, but if you have a reel of your makeup work for film, I'd be happy to see it and reach out when the time comes.
Ayelette, seriously, you’re in LA and you can’t find a crew? I’m up here in western Oregon where I really do have a hard time finding actors and crew, but I manage (barely.) You’ve got film schools, and lots of filmmaker wannabies all over the place down there. If you want to shoot up in Tahoe, there are a bunch of folk in Sacramento, Nevada County and the San Francisco area who go there all the time and some in Reno. I know quite a few down there – but very few up here.

Hey Ayelette, the film commissions are a great resource to find crew in specific locations. All the best!

No problem. Let me know when the time is right. Good luck finding your essential people.
Where are you filming?
LA, if I can find the right location. Another option is near Tahoe, to get mountains and cold/winter.

Call the local/nearest film Commision (provided they have one where you shoot). They will be able to help you with locations and crew/vendors list.
