VFX/CGI/3D TRANSFORMATION OF SHORT VIDEO CLIPS

Transformation of old cars, replacement of number plates, updating old mobile phone, replacing wall curtains, and erasing round tax discs from windscreens are required across short video clips. These tasks involve VFX/CGI/3D compositing techniques to achieve seamless, photorealistic results that blend naturally into the original footage. The goal is to blend all elements with artistic and technical precision so the final result looks naturally captured in camera, without any visible signs of manipulation. This project requires frame by frame compositing with expert precision to ensure the final visuals appear natural, smooth, and indistinguishable from the original shots. Technical Requirements: • Work must preserve original picture quality, RGB, grading, motion, pacing, and cinemascope frame size • Output must remain in the same 4K DPX frame format as the original source with identical frame numbering as the originals. • Deliverables must include: o 4K DPX frames with correct frame numbering same as original source o 24fps 4K UHD video clip o 24fps 2K HD video clip o 24fps MP4 clip • VFX must be error free: no jerks, juddering, floating, or flickering. Playback must be seamless on large cinema screens. Quality Expectations: • Seamless integration with original footage from multiple camera angles. • Strict adherence to frame numbering for compatibility with master folders. • Preservation of original RGB values, frame speed (24fps), and cinemascope dimensions. • Final outputs must be professional, cinematic, and ready for big screen projection. The frame numbers on your final work must be the same as they appear on the original frames in our folders, otherwise we will not be able to mix your work in the sequence. This is a straightforward project for confident VFX/CGI/3D professionals. Successful completion will lead to long term regular work. Consultation and support will be available throughout the project. Freelancers may submit MP4 previews for approval before delivering full folders.

Need legal contract for presenting to investors of film project

I am looking for an attorney who is an expert in legal matters surrounding film funding, for commercial exhibition and distribution. I am inspired by director Sam Raimi and his team's method of sourcing investors for 'Evil Dead' (1981), by first crafting the legal contract with an attorney before approaching investors. The investors were promised a percentage of the revenue generated. I am yet unclear what the sources of generation of revenue for my project can be (ie. TV, galleries and museums, cinema theatres, video on demand?). What sets my work apart, is that I have already produced and finalised the audio track (soundtrack) of the project in the entirety, and 15 minutes of the actual film is already produced, the length of the work will be in the 40-45 minutes range. I am looking to raise 4400-4500 USD. Here is information that I was able to uncover about the preproduction and funding of 'Evil Dead' (1981), through an AI response generation platform: "before Sam Raimi (along with producer Rob Tapert and star Bruce Campbell) went out to raise money for The Evil Dead (1981), they legally structured the way they would take investments by having an attorney prepare a formal investment document. Here’s what that involved: The Legal Document They Prepared Raimi and his collaborators consulted a Detroit lawyer (Phil Gillis, a friend of Tapert’s family) to get legal advice on raising funds. Based on that advice, they formed a limited partnership — a legal entity — which became Renaissance Pictures. The attorney helped them draft a limited-partnership offering document (often called a limited partnership agreement or legal offering prospectus in that context). This document was the legal contract they would show to potential investors when soliciting funds. What the Document Contained The offering document essentially laid out the key terms of the investment opportunity: Structure of the partnership: It defined the limited partnership — Renaissance Pictures — as the legal vehicle for the project. Investment terms: It explained that the filmmakers were selling shares in the movie; they offered up to fifteen shares at $10,000 each. Escrow conditions: All investment money was to go into an escrow account that could not be accessed by the filmmakers until a minimum number of shares — nine, or $90,000 — had been sold. This was the amount they estimated they needed to begin shooting. Rights, risks, and responsibilities: It spelled out what investors owned, what risks they were taking, and the rights and duties of the partners and the investors. Return projections: Raimi and his team promised investors they could double their investment in two years — though that was essentially a projection/bluff to help attract financing. Investor communications: The plan included sending out bi-weekly newsletters on production progress and giving each investor two tickets to the world premiere. Purpose of the Document The main goal of this legal document was to: Make the offer to investors legally credible — having a formal limited partnership and a written offering made the project look legitimate rather than an informal “friends chasing a dream.” Comply with legal requirements for selling investments — even in a small independent film context, the sale of shares had to be structured to protect both the filmmakers and the investors. Set clear terms for who owned what and what investors could expect — including how and when funds could be used and what rights investors received in return. The finished legal offering document was then presented to friends, family, and local professionals (doctors, lawyers, business owners, etc.) as they attempted to raise the funds needed for production." What I practically need from you as an attorney - in the entertainment industry - is what source of revenue I can promise to my investor, in what way, and how to divide or sell, and promise the work to the investor. Ultimately creating the legal document for presentation to the investor. Thank you, looking forward to hearing from you!

Key Responsibilities Strategic Outbound Prospecting: Conduct cold calls to a curated list of potential clients and partners to introduce Maison Italic’s value proposition. Lead Qualification: Identify the specific needs of prospects, ranging from turnkey interior design to bespoke furniture procurement.

Exceptional Communication: Fluent, persuasive English (additional languages like Italian or Arabic are a plus) with a polished "corporate-executive" tone. Resilience: A veteran mindset—able to navigate gatekeepers and turn "no" into "not right now." What We Provide Legal Backing: You will be representing a brand fully owned and operated by Global Concierge, a registered entity under RAK International Corporate Centre (Registration No: 0149). Marketing Support: Access to our digital portfolio and website (https://maisonitalic.com) to support your sales efforts. Compensation: Competitive hourly rate plus a highly attractive commission structure on successful conversions/contracts. How to Apply Please provide a brief summary of your most successful high-ticket sales achievement. If you have a recording of a past sales call or a voice sample, please include it. We are looking for the "voice" of Maison Italic. The "Maison Italic" Executive Sales ScriptPhase 1: The Hook (The First 15 Seconds) "Good morning/afternoon, [Prospect Name]. My name is [Salesperson Name] calling from the London/Dubai office of Maison Italic. I’m reaching out because we are currently expanding our portfolio of turnkey interior projects in [Prospect’s City/Region], and your recent project at [Reference a specific project if known] caught our attention." Phase 2: The Value Proposition "We specialize in bridging the gap between high-end architectural vision and the 'Made in Italy' manufacturing world. We represent over 500 elite Italian manufacturers, providing everything from bespoke furniture and lighting to full-scale interior architecture. Essentially, we act as the single point of contact—handling the design, the direct procurement from Italy, and the final installation." Phase 3: The Discovery Question "I noticed on your website that you focus on [Luxury Residential/Commercial Spaces]. Are you currently managing any projects where sourcing authentic, high-caliber Italian craftsmanship has been a challenge or where you're looking for a more streamlined 'turnkey' solution?" Phase 4: Handling the "I already have a supplier" Objection "I completely understand. Most of our partners already have established channels. However, Maison Italic is unique because we provide direct access to the manufacturers that aren't typically available through standard retail showrooms. Because we operate under our parent facility, Global Concierge, we handle the entire logistics and banking tail, so you don't have to deal with multiple international vendors."

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance Setup and Config

We are seeking a Finance Data Migration Consultant with a strong understanding of core accounting principles and bookkeeping to set up our Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance environment. The project involves migrating 18 months of historical data from Sage 50 and configuring specific workflows for Accounts Payable and Employee Expenses. All current historical data relates to our UK entity but we will in due course be operating accounts for UAE and Global as well which needs to be factored into the setup of Dynamics setup. Key Responsibilities 1. Historical Data Migration - Scope: Import approximately 18 months of historical records, primarily focusing on transactional data and payroll journal summaries. - Source Data: We will provide the historical data in 3 Excel files (already exported from Sage 50). You will aid in loading this data into Dynamics 365 Finance, ensuring proper dating and categorization of all opening balances and transactions. - Reconciliation: Perform comprehensive, auditable reconciliation checks between the final Sage 50 reports and the imported Dynamics 365 balances to guarantee zero data loss and absolute accuracy post-migration. 2. Functional Setup Context: We are a largely remote business and therefore require automation of entries into the ledgers in the first instance, and the ability to track invoices or expenses through an approval process – confirming the expense as a valid business expense for services received or goods received, from the correct counterparty and for the correct amount.  This needs to be done within the “system” with approvals “signatures” noted electronically within approval limits. - Accounts Payable (Invoice Management): We require a simple, lightweight approach to handle invoices for services subscribed to or products purchased. - Email Ingestion: Setup must include a workflow where invoices sent to a specific company email address are ingested/handled within Dynamics 365. - Employee Approval & Audit: We need a way for employees to either enter items (for expected invoices) or approve invoices that have come in. This must include a simple audit process to track exactly who entered or approved the expense. - Employee Expenses: Configure the Expense Management module (or appropriate workflow) to allow team members to easily upload and submit expense claims for approval Each of these categories can be served by an add-in or configuration of the stand Prerequisites - Proven experience with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance implementation and data migration. - Strong knowledge of Sage 50 structures to understand the source data. - Ability to configure email-to-invoice workflows (via standard D365 features, OCR, or Power Automate). Timeline - We are able to have a call to go over the requirements/deliverables if required. - Please provide an outline of your proposal to fulfil the requirements outlined above and an estimated timeline for the full process (Migration + AP/Expense Setup). e.g., 1-4 Days, 1 week.

Digital Marketing Partner for Our Start-up

i-Thrive Well-Being is seeking an experienced UK-based digital marketing and growth partner to work alongside us in a practical, iterative support model. As a growing start-up brand, part of the challenge is building awareness that i-Thrive exists, particularly within our local catchment and among clearly defined audiences. At the same time, the business must generate enquiries, qualified leads, and—critically—confirmed bookings to support sustainable growth. Rather than a linear “audit → wait → implement” approach, this engagement blends fact-based performance review, rapid implementation of clear quick wins, and concurrent strategy development across paid advertising, organic social media, lead generation, and local SEO. This is a hands-on collaboration, not a reporting-only exercise. ________________________________________ Commercial Principle (Important) Paid Digital Advertising = ROI in Bookings For paid digital advertising, the primary and non-negotiable output is return on investment in bookings. Brand awareness, traffic, and lead volume are supporting indicators, but paid media success is judged on cost per booking, booking volume, and revenue impact, not impressions or clicks alone. ________________________________________ How We Expect the Engagement to Work From the outset, the partner will be expected to: • Rapidly assess current performance across paid ads, organic social, website, and local search • Implement immediate improvements to enquiry, lead, and booking flow • Improve clarity of messaging so audiences understand who we are, what we do, and who we are for • Refine targeting, structure, and creative based on observed response • Build a clear growth strategy informed by what actually converts This mirrors how i-Thrive works with its own clients: measure → interpret → act → review ________________________________________ About i-Thrive i-Thrive Well-Being is a UK-based health, wellbeing, and performance business combining evidence-led diagnostics with structured coaching and behaviour change.

We operate between healthcare and wellness in a high-trust, evidence-based space. ________________________________________ What We Do Diagnostics & Measurement DEXA body composition and bone health, VO₂ max, RMR, lactate testing, metabolic and performance profiling — used to inform decisions, not just generate reports. Coaching & Application One-to-one coaching and structured programmes across longevity, menopause, sports performance, and executive performance. Marketing must attract clients who value measured insight and coached behaviour change, not quick fixes. ________________________________________ Physical Presence We operate from a physical testing and consultation facility in Surrey, serving Surrey, Hampshire, Berkshire, and West Sussex. Local visibility, Google “near me” searches, and reputation are commercially critical. ________________________________________ Scope of Support 1. Paid Digital Advertising (Google & Meta) Primary objective: bookings with clear ROAS Includes performance review (spend → enquiries → leads → bookings), conversion tracking validation, campaign optimisation by service line, budget allocation by cost per booking, and ongoing optimisation. 2. Organic Social Media (Audit & Evaluation) Core platforms: Instagram, Facebook Evaluate the strategic importance of TikTok, Threads, and emerging platforms based on whether they materially support awareness, trust, enquiries, or bookings. 3.
