We are making a feature film on a shoestring budget (nothing new).

We don’t have much money, but we are looking to buy your used equipment. We are looking for EVERYTHING you have to offer.

Major items we are looking for:
Steadicam
Red gear
Tripod
Nikon lenses
Filters
Lighting gear
Sound gear
Misc. supplies
Much more - we're making a feature

Please check out my web page. http://www.spinningmirror.com I have some stradicams there and can always find other stuff if i don't list it.

Many of the things on your list would be much better off rented than purchased. For example a steadicam package for a feature with the Red would cost between $30k-$80k. Lighting gear will be much cheaper to rent. A 4k rents for about $175 a day. If you go buy one you will be spending $4-$10k depending on vintage.

Also, are you going to use all this stuff everyday of production? Careful planning can save you a ton of money. Try to find an experienced 1st AD and an experienced line producer to help you out. Pay them for a couple of days to break down the script and do a prelim schedule. It will save you big in the long run.

Good luck, have fun,

Nick

Totally agree with arrinick. Unless you will be making use of this equipment(recoupable use after the movie as well) then I recommend you rent. Have you thought about just hiring someone who has the equipment already?

I visited your website, I'll have to try to remember to use other peoples hard work and clips from their fine movies to sell my next project as well.

Good Luck!
