Hi All,

I hope you guys don't mind me posting this to the list, but ...

We are looking for a programmer on a very short term to help us write
a relative simple, yet very specialised, command line application for 
our post production pipeline for a  television show shot in HD (dpx 
files) using Viper cameras.

The program needs to do the following:

- take 3 argument: an EDL and two directories, source and destination.
- based on the edit decisions it should look in the source directory
   and find the corresponding dpx files based on the timecode information
   contained in the dpx  header and copy those files to the destionation
   directory
- the program must create a log file that shows which timecodes could
   not be resolved as well as the edit decision that contained that
   timecode.

There are allready parts of code that could be used to create the
application, which are python code to handle edl and c code that handles
reading the dpx files.  This code can only be used when you are willing
to travel to our location (Iceland).

You (the programmer) should understand film/television  postproduction. 
When you are willing to travel there is a good change we have more 
application that you can build for us.

When you are interested, or know someone who might be, please contact
me directly for further information and to discuss business details.

Best regards,

Paul Boots
