Hello,
I'm new to this forum, and looking for advice and leads. I've been a union boom operator in Los Angeles since 1996, and have done just fine. I have no problem getting on a series or two each fall, the last really successful TV series I did was House MD, and a series I just worked on (About a Boy) is getting a second season starting this fall. I really do not need to go to NY to work, however, I met a girl at Burning Man, and not really expecting much, it turned into something special. And now we want to live together, but she's just launching her career as a photographer in NY, and she does not want to move to LA, so I've decided to try my fortune in NY.
I am not competitive and I only want to add to the experienced labor pool and complement the talent already there. If anyone has any leads, advice, help in getting in the union, etc, send them my way. You can look me up on IMDB, I have plenty of experience to work on any network or cable TV series, or feature. I would like to get to know the busiest, best mixers and boom operators and offer my services. I have a resume with references I can send as well, and a place to stay in Williamsburg. Thank you all.
