Hello everyone in Paris!

If anyone lives in Paris with a view of the skyline or can film in a friends apartment please just reply. I am doing a scene that requires a simple push in move from a window or balcony to see the skyline of Paris with the Eiffel Tower in the background.

Cheers

Ed

Ed have you tried Lewis Soucy here on the forum? He is a good guy and might be able to do it. Wish I had my Epic in my Paris place right now..

You could also mock this up pretty easily by shooting your indoor setting of choice with a greenscreen window. The back plate of the skyline wouldn't need to move much if you were doing a straight dolly shot. Would give you 100% control which is always nice.

Thank you everyone for all of the support, unfortunately the entire shot consist of a push in from the doorway to an outside balcony or large bay window and then a 180 degree pan. Yes, this would be a green screen comp on our end. We need a medium to medium wide shot only showing the left and right window/door frames and then out into the open revealing the skyline. BUT we could work with just a lockdown from a balcony or very large bay window with only a 180degree pan. I just want to pay someone to get the shot I need!

Does anyone want to shoot? We can not pay for a full production but it is a paid project!

Cheers
