I’m going to produce my first documentary film and was thinking of hiring a co-producer/director who could help me. I’ve got a distant friend that works in Hollywood and I can afford to hire some highly talented person. However I’m in the SF Bay Area? Can this work? Did I need to live near my co-producer/director because of all the interaction, or can it be done over the internet and phone?
My gut feel says close collaboration is essential and I should only pitch the film to producers/directors that live in the Bay Area?
