I would like to introduce myself; I am Russell Hill, an independent filmmaker, among other things, currently living in Portland, Oregon.
One of my up coming film projects has a number of scenes that take place in or near olive groves and grape orchards. The story takes place in the early 1900’s in rural Italy. It is about perceptions and choices.
I will be traveling through your area the last week of October and the first few days of November scouting for olive groves and vineyards with dusty roads.
The only time I request is to meet with you, or your representative and to gain permission to be on your property for a few hours for the purpose of scouting scene locations and shooting test footage. No person or building would be identifiable in any of the footage.
If our interaction were positive and your location suites the needs of the story I would again approach you to discuss using the location in the production of my film.
What I can offer to you at this time is your name in the credit roll and a copy of the finished film. Like so many undertakings, this one too requires the soil to be broken, the rootstock prepared, cultivation and nurturing of the soil, patience and the belief that the process, the journey, is as important as the result.
If you would be willing to accommodate my request but feel that the timing is not the best due to seasonal harvest or other reason, please let me know of a more appropriate time to visit in the future.
My website contains samples of past work and additional background information.
I look forward to hearing from you in the near future.
Sincerely,
Russell Hill, Producer
